LIVE U-20 GAA on TV this week: Meath v Louth, Donegal v Tyrone Roscommon v Mayo
On another bumper week of top class underage inter-county action TG4 will also screen two big Munster under-20 hurling encounters.
Cork versus Waterford and Limerick against Clare and both on Wednesday evening and will be available live on TG4's Sport YouTube channel.
Football wise, the Irish language broadcaster have gone with the eagerly-awaited Ulster Under-20 Final meeting of Donegal and Tyrone as their live TV game on Wednesday night.
Many believe the All-Ireland champions could come from this one, with Tyrone the current holders.
Tyrone will feature senior star Eoin McElholm, who hit 1-3 in last week's victory over Derry and scored twice off the bench for Tyrone seniors in their defeat by All-Ireland champions Armagh at the weekend.
Donegal will have the driving force of Finbarr Roarty, who is a regular in Jim McGuinness' senior side.
Also on Wednesday night on the TG4 Player and App is the latest installment of what is becoming one of the game's most intense rivalries as Louth face Meath in the Leinster Under-20 football final at St. Conleth's Park, Newbridge.
Meath defeated Kildare last week in impressive fashion, while Louth disposed of Dublin to set up a repeat of last year's final, which Meath won.
Also on Wednesday night, Mayo face Roscommon in the Connacht Under-20 football final, with the game live on TG4's Sport YouTube channel.
A total of 10 games at Under-20 and minor level will be screened this week.
TG4 will also have live coverage from the minor football championship on Friday evening when Mayo face Galway in the Connacht semi-final on their Sport YouTube channel.
Also at the minor grade, they'll have live coverage of Cork versus Tipperary and Waterford against Clare in the Munster Hurling Championship.

Women's All-Ireland SFC final: All You Need to Know
Meath and Dublin lock horns again in the decider, four years on from the Royals causing a surprise when winning a first title after defeating their Leinster rivals. The Royals followed up in 2022, with Dublin regaining their title the following year Sunday's decider at Croke Park throws in at 4.15pm, with Antrim v Louth getting things up and running in the junior final at 11.45am, followed by Laois v Tyrone in the intermediate decider at 1.45pm. ONLINE Live updates of the senior clash and match reports on RTÉ.ie and the RTÉ News app. TV TG4 will broadcast live coverage of the senior and intermediate finals final, with the junior showdown on the TG4 Player. Watch highlights on The Sunday Game from 9.30pm on RTÉ2 and RTÉ Player RADIO Live commentary on Sunday Sport on RTÉ Radio 1 and on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta's Spórt an Lae. WEATHER Cloud and rain will clear from the southeast on Sunday morning and for the rest of the day there'll be a good amount of dry and bright weather, with just a few showers in the northwest. Cloud will slowly build from the southwest through the evening. Highest temperatures of 16 to 20 degrees with a moderate to fresh westerly wind, easing later. For more go to Meath v Dublin, Croke Park, 4.15pm Orlagh Nolan is named to start in the Dublin team. Nolan's 2024 season was cruelly cut short by an ACL injury sustained before the quarter-final clash with Galway but she returned against the same opposition in the recent semi-final – and performed well in a substitute's role as the Sky Blues won a dramatic game after extra-time. She comes in for Caoimhe O'Connor, who sustained a hamstring injury against Galway last time out. That's the only change in personnel from the semi-final, with Meath opting for an unchanged starting line-up. However, there may be a change in personnel for the Royal County, as key defender Katie Newe was forced off with a knee injury during the semi-final win against Kerry. Dublin won the most recent competitive clash between them, in the 2025 TG4 Leinster final. Meath's last victory against their old rivals was in a National League Division 1 group game – while the Royals last achieved a championship win against Dublin in 2022, in Leinster. The counties have not met in the All-Ireland series since the dramatic 2021 All-Ireland final. Dublin are readying themselves for the 14th Senior final in the county's history – and a win for the Sky Blues would hand them a seventh All-Ireland crown. They were previous winners in 2010, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2023. Dublin: A Shiels; J Tobin, L Caffrey, N Donlon; S Goldrick, M Byrne, N Crowley; É O'Dowd, H McGinnis; N Owens, C Rowe (capt), O Nolan; H Tyrrell, N Hetherton, K Sullivan. Meath: R Murray; Á Sheridan, MK Lynch, K Newe; A Cleary (capt), S Wall, K Kealy; O Sheehy, M Farrelly; M Thynne, N Gallogly, C Smyth; E Duggan, V Wall, K Cole.

‘He made a far greater impact than he ever realised': funeral for man who died in workplace accident in Cork
Pat Corcoran (68), who died in a workplace accident in Clondrohid village in Co Cork earlier this week was a loving family man and a stalwart of the horse racing scene, his requiem Mass has heard. Mr Corcoran (68), a father of four, was pronounced dead at Cork University Hospital Hospital on Monday. He had been transferred to the hospital following an accident at a family-owned packaging and pallet company in Clondrohid, four miles north of Macroom. At his requiem Mass in St Abina's Church in Clondrohid on Friday, his son Brian joked that although he was born in 1997, the highlight of the year for his father was training the Dingle Derby winner Fiona's Choice. 'I would often hear the full rundown. The mare he got ready in 21 days through pure horsemanship and dedication to get the mare in the condition she was in in such a short amount of time. She won in a photo finish, which showed he just managed to get her over the line. READ MORE 'He had a great love for horse racing. Particularly point to point. Even on the day of [my sister] Louise's christening he managed to get to a point to point that evening, where he said his luck was in and it paid for the christening. 'Myself and my fiancee, Katie, got engaged in May of last year. When I informed Dad that the chosen month for the wedding was March 2026, he looked over at Katie and said: 'It's hardly the week of Cheltenham is it?' 'It is hard to picture a race day without thinking of him there having the chat, putting on the bet and hoping to come home with a few extra pounds in the pocket to cover a bag of chips.' Brian said their father was their 'guide, protector and a steady hand'. 'We always knew we were deeply loved. Our mom, Mary T, was his constant. Together they built a home of love, laughter and loyalty. 'Dad didn't need a stage or a spotlight. His greatness was in the quiet way that he lived his life, by showing up, by giving his all and by being there for the people who mattered. In doing so he made a far greater impact than he ever realised.' He added that the family was grateful for the support of family, friends, the emergency services, hospital staff and the work colleagues of his father at Mid Cork Pallets. Meanwhile, Fr Jimmy Greene told mourners that Pat was a man of deep faith who had a great generosity of spirit. 'Pat was a kind man, considerate of others and if there was any job that needed doing, Pat was always there to help. He was a happy man.' Offertory gifts included a copy of the Irish Field, an apple tart, a family picture, a work jacket and a GAA jersey.

GAA fans divided over controversial change to Munster football championship as critics urge four counties to ‘boycott'
FANS have reacted online following a controversial change to the Munster senior football championship. At a meeting on Thursday night, the provincial council approved a change that will see the two highest ranked counties separated in the semi-final draw. 2 A major change has been made to the Munster senior football championship Credit: Brendan Moran/Sportsfile 2 Critics believe it has been set up to facilitate Kerry and Cork in the Munster final Credit: Piaras Ó Mídheach/Sportsfile The new seeding system would see the two highest ranked teams from the national league placed on either side of the draw for the following championship campaign. As a result, A Munster "For the 2026 Munster Senior Football Championship, Kerry and Cork as the two highest ranking teams in the 2025 Allianz Read More on GAA The Kingdom and the Rebels have met in the decider four times in the last ten years, the last being when Kerry won 4-22 to 1-9 in 2021. And critics of the new structure claimed it has been set up to make it a more regular occurence. One lamented: "Kills the Munster final though doesn't it ? Granted I can see the thought process but I'm not sure" A second posted: "Clare Most read in GAA Football "It's pretty obvious what Munster GAA thinks of them." A third commented: "More concerned with getting their dream final of Kerry v Cork and the accompanying big gate than developing football in the province. 'Aged like milk on a windowsill in July' - Watch BBC's GAA pundits ALL predict Donegal to beat Kerry "Shame on those individuals/representatives/counties who voted in favour of this." On the flip side, some fans backed the decision as potentially leading to better Munster football finals. One said: "Well done Munster and about time too,hopefully we'll have proper Munster finals now again after the piles of s***e we've had to endure over the past few years" A second said: ""Unfair this, unfair that". You know what's unfair? Clare had to beat a Tipperary team that finished 5th in Division 4 (29th ranked team in the country!!!) to guarantee entry to Sam Maguire group stage this year." And a third said: "If teams are ranked into Sam Maguire/Tailteann Cup by league standings then it makes sense to do the same to provincials. "Wasn't very fair on the 2 teams who got promoted from Div.3 to be pegged back into Tailteann due to lack of Div 1 & 2 teams in Munster Championship" Kerry have won the Munster title for the last five years in a row and have bested Clare in the last three finals. Their attempt at six in a row will see them defend their crown as All-Ireland champions, having conquered
