Today's O'Byrne Cup final between Kildare and DCU has been postponed.

Leinster's subsidiary competition decider was scheduled for a 2pm throw-in at Newbridge but has fallen foul of the bad weather that battered the nation overnight.

Following heavy rainfall, the water-logged pitch was inspected twice this morning but has been deemed unplayable.

Also off is the Kehoe Shield semi-final meeting of Armagh and Roscommon, which was due to throw-in at Athleague at 2pm.

And the Walsh Cup SH tie between Laois and Dublin has been switched from Rathdowney to O'Moore Park, Portlaoise.

One man who won't be overly distraught at the postponement of the O'Byrne Cup decider is UCD boss Niall Moyna, whose headache of having to field his team twice in three days is now removed.

But, with the national football league commencing this coming weekend, the GAA will now have to find a slot in its fixtures programme, possibly for a midweek match under lights somewhere. Tweet
