New Kerry football managers don’t always get off to the best start, something short-of-patience Kingdom fans might do well to remember tomorrow as Peter Keane’s reign begins. Larry Ryan talks to those who’ve experienced the short sharp shock of a dodgy spring in green and gold

Liam Sheedy doesn’t believe there is any psychological need for Tipperary to beat Clare in this Saturday evening’s Division 1A Round 1 game.

Galway defender Declan Kyne says more of Dublin’s championship games should be moved out of Croke Park.

Fr Mathews’ gruelling weekend schedule caught up with them last night as they suffered defeat to IT Carlow at the Mathews Arena last night.

For many counties, the notion of this being a month for club championship action has looked more and more like an extended April fool’s joke, writes Mike Quirke.

We look back on five National League thrillers between Tipperary and Kilkenny ahead of Sunday's final.

The 2017 Lidl National League was launched today at the Lidl Headquarters in Tallaght with players and managers attending, but the main topic of conversation concerned arguably one of the greatest ever Ladies Footballers, Cora Staunton

Shane O’Donnell was in Croke Park yesterday to help the GAA launch the Replay project, which captures 3D motion-picture data of the skills of football and hurling.

Waterford hurling boss Derek McGrath said yesterday that he and his squad had “parked” referee Diarmuid Kirwan’s controversial late call in Sunday’s league final immediately after the game.

It would seem that if you were to come up with a two-year plan to win the national league, then get relegated in year one.

Kelly says that the Clare players and management are immune to the criticism of their playing style.

There’s hardly another GAA weekend like it for stirring so many permutations and palpitations... and exaggerations.

Stephen Rochford's Mayo fell to their second defeat of their Division 1 season as four Dean Rock points gave Dublin victory at MacHale Park.

Finally, someone else said it.

Austin Gleeson has an appointment with an exam paper tomorrow morning, so the Waterford defender may have to put celebrating the county’s NHL title win on hold for a few days.

Former Cork captain Tomás Mulcahy believes that “a 200 or 300% improvement” in workrate is required ahead of the Munster SHC quarter-final with Waterford.

When GAA historians reflect on the changes that hurling has undergone, will they mark down Sunday, May 3, 2015 as the day when the conventional game with the traditional positions of six, two, six finally died?

Seventeen years now they’ve been on the block and around it. Seventeen years since Waterford re-emerged as an inter-county force. Modern Waterford hurling began in the 1998 league final and the parallels with tomorrow are irresistible.

In the build-up to Kerry’s Allianz Hurling League promotion/relegation play-off with Antrim, Eamonn Kelly set aside a five-hour block to review DVD footage of the Ulster outfit.

When we played Cork in the 1998 league semi-final, what I remember most is that we wore white togs and yellow socks. We had never worn white togs before in our lives, not even as minors. I don’t know where the yellow socks came out of it, they were dire. We were worse. We were cat.

Kilmacud Crokes’ Cian O’Sullivan is a pillar of consistency for Dublin.
