What time, TV channel is Dublin v Armagh on today in All-Ireland Championship?
Dublin have no Con O'Callaghan but John and Paddy Small, Sean Bugler and Lee Gannon are all named in their 26 man squad.
Killian McGinnis and Lorcan O'Dell stepped up against Galway last time out. Can they do it again? The home comforts of Croke Park will help. It might be the turn of a Cormac Costello or Colm Basquel to stand up.
As All-Ireland champions Armagh will want to flex their muscles at Croke Park. With Eoin still Murchan out, it's hard to see a match up for Armagh's key man, Oisin Conaty. The in-form Ross McQuillan should suit Croke Park, while Dublin could well start Luke Breathnach.
This is one to be savoured and one that could go either way. Dublin were superb at Croke Park in Division 1 this Spring, but this is Championship and with so many new faces the jury is still out.

Rory Grugan felt like Armagh had 'something special' and wanted to go again
Rory Grugan was 33 when he helped Armagh land the All-Ireland title - but walking away never entered his head. It was a long and painful climb to the top with plenty of heartache along the way, including back to back Ulster Final penalty shoot out defeats and All-Ireland exits (2022/23). But the idea of 'One and Done' wasn't something the Ballymacnab playmaker entertained for a second. 10 months on from that famous All-Ireland Final win over Galway, Armagh are back in the last eight again and looking formidable. Their five point victory over Dublin at Croke Park at the weekend meant Kieran McGeeney's men not only topped the table for the third successive year, but they also made another piece of history. Armagh became the only side across the three years of the round robin series to qualify for an All-Ireland quarter-final with a game to spare. 'I think when you reach that pinnacle there might be a perception on the outside like, oh you'd walk away or whatever,' says Grugan, who hit eight points against Dublin. 'I was 33 at the time. It was honestly the opposite - where you wanted to go again. 'You felt like you had something special and that was Geezer's thing straight away. It's just the way he is. It's about driving it again and seeing where it can take us. 'No team in Armagh has certainly done it (back to back All-Ireland titles). It's obviously a very long way away to be talking about that type of thing. 'I suppose it's something that drives you, and we are at a stage where we are at an All-Ireland quarter-final and we'll just see where it takes us from there.' Grugan says Armagh can use all the experience they had from the good days and the bad ones. 'I think we are in a position where we probably were frustrated,' he says. 'You were in danger of being given a tag of not getting over the line in a close game, or nearly men, or whatever you want to call it. 'Then when you get there and you win that thing, there's definitely a sense of it taking a certain element of pressure off and it liberating you a bit. 'You know that you have that reliance on your experience to get over the line and to win that. 'That when it comes to it, you think that you've been here before. That doesn't mean that it's easy. 'If anything it's actually harder because you have teams that are coming for you now, but I suppose that experience stands to you. You'd like to think that it helps as the year goes on.' Grugan had an easy sell for his team mates in the huddle at Croke Park last Sunday as Armagh geared up for a first Championship encounter with Dublin since 2010. 'You are talking about being one of the older players,' he continued. 'I think when you know you are closer to the end in your career, you relish these things. 'I said after the game last week (win over Derry) I've never played against Dublin in a Championship game in Croke Park. 'I know it wasn't a sellout but I suppose playing into the Hill, the sun shining in Croke Park. I said it to the boys in the huddle before the game. 'This is why you play football. If you can't enjoy that, there's something wrong with you. It's obviously easier when you win. Those are the days you relish, so we'll be looking forward to being back here.' Grugan is playing as well as he ever has, conducting the Armagh attack and weighing in with scores and big defensive plays. 'I think you always have to try and improve,' he says. 'The minute you feel like you are the finished product you are in the wrong game. 'Even the new rules have rejuvenated it for me. You are looking for new things all the time. How you can get better and whether that's defensively or with your shooting and different things. 'There is so much of my game I would like to be better at. You'll come away after the thing (Dublin game) and it's all great, but there's so much I know from both the team perspective and even my own that you could do better. 'That's what high performance is. You are always striving for perfection. You will never get there.' The 34 year old French teacher says Armagh won't be treating the Galway game lightly, even though it's a dead rubber for them. 'I don't think at this level taking a step back or having some sort of mindset of not wanting to win a game is a good thing,' he continued. 'Momentum is a big thing. You have two weeks to Galway and two weeks after that to an All-Ireland quarter-final. 'So I think we are going to be really going after it. We just have to take it as a normal game. I know it's not do or die in the sense of we have already topped the group. 'There is talk about the boys that want their spot. Everyone is going to be pushing on, so I think everyone has enough pride in the thing to be saying they want to go on and win that game. 'It means you are going into a quarter-final with momentum rather than coming off a loss.'

Ryan Mason set for first permanent managerial role after agreeing West Brom move
Tottenham coach Ryan Mason is set to land his first managerial role after agreeing to take over at West Brom, the PA news agency understands. West Brom have been on the hunt for a new manager since Tony Mowbray was dismissed on April 21. Mason quickly emerged as a leading candidate, but Spurs' roller-coaster 2024-25 campaign – in which they secured Europa League success – only ended on May 25. After a short holiday, the former England midfielder was given time to deliberate and has now decided to accept West Brom's offer. It brings a seven-year coaching career at Tottenham to an end for Mason, who progressed through the club's academy to also play 70 times for his boyhood team. Mason was forced to cut short his playing career in 2018 at the age of 26 after he sustained a fractured skull in a Premier League match for Hull away to Chelsea a year earlier. A decade on from earning his solitary England cap against Italy, the London-born coach will embark on his first managerial role in the Championship. Highly-rated coach Mason held talks with Belgian club Anderlecht in October before a mutual decision was made to remain at Spurs, which enabled the 33-year-old to play his part in the club's first trophy since 2008. After two previous caretaker stints at Tottenham, including leading the club into the 2021 Carabao Cup final, Mason has long been tipped for a future in management. Mason initially started coaching at youth level for Spurs upon his retirement in 2018 before being promoted to Antonio Conte's coaching staff three years later not long after a seven-game spell as interim boss. Ryan Mason during his time as Tottenham coach (John Walton/PA) Another caretaker role came in 2023 following Conte's departure before Ange Postecoglou kept Mason as part of his backroom team. After a further two years as Tottenham first-team coach, Mason will take over West Brom after they finished ninth in the Championship. Mowbray was dismissed in April after their play-off hopes ended despite only being hired in January to replace Carlos Corberan, who left to take over at Valencia. Mason, whose contract at Spurs was up this month, will be tasked with leading West Brom back into the top flight for the first time since 2021.

Meath will have it all to do against Armagh in All-Ireland Championship opener
They commence their latest bid for All-Ireland honours against Armagh in Round One of the TG4 SFC at Pairc Tailteann this Saturday with the throw-in at 3pm. It is to their credit however that they have remained competitive and managed to qualify for the knockout stages in both 2023 and 2024 considering the turn over of players in that short space of time and the number of All-Ireland winners who departed the scene for a variety of reasons since that last final win over Kerry. The most recent meeting against the Orchard County was a final round NFL tie at the Athletic Grounds at the end of March where a late free converted by Emma Duggan gave Meath victory, 2-12 to 4-5. Armagh had already booked their passage to the final at that stage where they lost out to reigning All-Ireland champions Kerry, 4-14 to 0-11. They also clashed at this stage of the competition 12 months ago with Meath boss Shane McCormack coming up against the county he previously managed. There was late heartbreak for Meath in that match as they were on level terms until Niamh Coleman struck for an Armagh goal in the closing minutes. Meath hit back with a brace of points in added time but the hosts held on for a 3-9 to 1-14 win. Armagh's most recent outing was their Ulster final win where they justified their tag of hot favourites with a 3-9 to 0-7 victory over Donegal to retain their title. There were two cracking goals from Aoife McCoy and a Player of the Match performance from her fellow 2024 All-Star Lauren McConville. Niamh Coleman scored Armagh's other goal while their third All-Star from 2024 Grace Ferguson notched a point from the wing back position. Ace markswoman Aimee Mackin still hasn't returned since her cruciate knee injury sustained in the 2024 provincial final while Ulster All-Star Dearbhla Coleman is also out with an injury. However, Armagh can still call on an abundance of experience in their latest bid to lift the Brendan Martin Cup for the very first time. They reached the semi-final in 2024, going down to eventual champions Kerry, 1-8 to 0-7. That is an indication of the task facing Meath in this latest clash. Meath of course are coming off the back of yet another Leinster final defeat at the hands of Dublin. That was a game where Meath were attempting to bridge a 25-year gap by winning the provincial crown and for long stretches it looked as if they would gain that overdue success. ADVERTISEMENT Learn more They opened up a six point advantage in the opening half and were full value for their four point lead nearing the end of the third quarter. However Dublin called on all their experience in the final quarter with eight unanswered points to win their 12th consecutive provincial title though they were somewhat flattered by the 2-13 to 1-12 victory. That performance should instil great confidence into Shane McCormack's side ahead of this All-Ireland series. Emma Duggan, Vikki Wall, Aoibhin Cleary, Mary Kate Lynch, Niamh Gallogly and Megan Thynne are still key figures while some of the younger players including keeper Robyn Murray, Ciara Smyth, Kerrie Cole and Karla Kealy are adopting well at this level. Home advantage is a plus going into this crunch tie but Armagh who have been knocking at the door over the past few years will start as favourites to make a winning start. Kildare are the other county in this Group Three and that will be an away fixture for Meath. The top two counties advance to the knockout stages with the winner's of the group having a home quarter final tie. The bottom team in each group contest the relegation play-off.
