A bumper weekend for GAA fans with a bunch of exciting games to feast on, albeit from our armchairs!

The Leinster Senior Football Championship reaches the semi-final stages this weekend with a double-header at what will be an eerily quiet Croke Park.

While Dublin should comfortably dispose of Laois, the other semi-final, which sees Meath take on Kildare, promises to be much more competitive.

There is rarely much between the two teams and Sunday should be no different.

Meath were utterly dominant in their quarter-final demolition of Wicklow in Aughrim. Regardless of the opposition, a score of 7-14 has to be admired and will surely have boosted confidence levels in the Royal County.

Hopefully the boys can carry their form, and shooting boots, to Croke Park on Sunday and progress to the final.

The game can be viewed on the RTE News Now channel, so no additional charge!
