GAA round-up: Anthony Daly's debut as Dublin manager saw him end up on the wrong end of a 6-12 to 0-12 hammering as Brian Cody's all-conquering Kilkenny hit the ground running in the Walsh Cup. Elsewhere in the competition, there were wins for Laois, Wexford and Galway.
Kilkenny led by just 1-7 to 0-7 at the interval but second-half strikes from Richie Hogan, Aidan Fogarty, Michael Rice, Michael Grace and Patrick Hogan put the result beyond doubt at Parnell Park.
In Connacht, Roscommon will take on Galway in next weekend’s FBD League senior football final after a narrow one point win over Mayo.
NUI Galway missed out on a place in the decider despite finishing the campaign unbeaten with Roscommon advancing by virtue of their superior points difference. Sligo’s meeting with Leitrim fell foul of the poor weather conditions at Coola.
Cork will meet UL in the final of Munster’s McGrath Cup after they cruised past UCC at Pairc Ui Rinn. The Leesiders notched a total of 15 scores from play as they prevailed 0-18 to 0-8. UL booked their place in the final with a 0-13 to 0-8 win over Waterford.
