Donegal star to miss Mayo friendly

Donegal football star Brian Roper is likely to miss this weekend's friendly clash with Mayo after his dog jumped up and scratched his eye.

Roper's dog, Bruno, packed a mean right hook when he leapt up and caught the half-forward below the eye with a real sucker punch.

Roper missed out on his club side's SFC match last weekend and underwent tests in Sligo general hospital on Monday.
