The weekend's GAA football and hurling action threw up plenty of talking points on social media...
Standing out waiting for my lift to the game today, local priest stops to wish us luck “sow the boot into them” 😂

Where does the Leinster Football Championship go from here? Kildare look to be a decent side , Beat Mayo last year, into the super 8s and then got beaten by 15 points. There’s no amount of commitment or training is going to make up this margin. Something needs to happen fast!!

Always great to get home advantage. Leitrim haven’t been bet in Carrick this year. (Unless you count the penalty shootout v Mayo) #qualifiers #leitrimvclare https://t.co/pn5k4vcoDp

Great draw for down this morning. Second best team in country besides dubs this 5/6 years. Big crowd in newry. Some experience for some of them young men. And nothing to lose. #downvmayo

Great to see Monaghan and Armagh play each other. They seem to get on shocking well with the majority of Monaghan supporters shouting for them yesterday against @CavanCoBoardGaa #GAA #Qualifiers

Great to see @MeathGAA back in the Leinster final. Once again the defence rock solid which has been the main reason for our upward curve this year. One of our greatest defenders Donal Keogan leading the way. 💪🏻 #AnMhíAbú

There’s a few teams out there with the right target men to expose that weakness in the Dublin full back line. None of them the defensive system to keep them out at the other end. It’s unfortunate because tonight even the Dublin fans looked bored clapping their hands.

Dublin are a ridiculous team. Adam Tyrell mick o Grady were brilliant for Kildare. Ben McCormack is the best player in Kildare. #KildareGAA #SundayGame

Great day, with wins for both @CavanCoBoardGaa & @DubGAAOfficial. Clones or Croker in 2 weeks time! 🤷♂️

This isn’t a Dublin Croke Park rant but I saw a clip of the Dublin subs doing their runs on the pitch after the match today. No prob with it, it had to be done but we (Kerry) were always hunted from the pitch trying to do the same thing. 🤔🤔🤔

Mannion corner back... Donegal or Dublin? pic.twitter.com/x3tJCfgKB3

What a career. Loved playing against him. Also a great teammate with Ireland. Best of luck on number 100. Still a few years left too. https://t.co/KTnT8S6TNP

One of the most important men in Donegal GAA history is the person who stationed Michael Murphy’s dad in a Donegal barracks all them years ago 👮♂️

Planning on taking the wee girl to the Donegal/Tyrone game. Looking forward to it and trying to make sure I’ve given her the right responses when her uncle is called a bollix. Which will probably happen multiple times.

Tyrone disappointing all round. Brennan will get the plaudits but Patton was outstanding. Guaranteed possession time and again. McShane and Donnelly didn’t get a sniff either. Well deserved Dún na nGall 🏐!!!!

Didnt think scoreline reflected how dominant Donegal were. Controlled that game. All the top performers on the Donegal team

67 mins gone and Tyrone still haven’t won a Donegal kickout!! Shocking

Hopefully that means the end of the wexford football management. #clueless

Puzzled why the @FermanaghGAA feel the need to play club league games today ? Especially after an under 20 game last night and senior game tomorrow? Senior club season over in 2/3months... madness

So after today we know that.... Limerick are still serious, Clare are a group who look lost at the moment, Galway are still here (with or without Joe)..TJ is just pure class...and....@Neilmcmanus88 is a very handsome man 😜 #GAA

Limerick a joy to watch, honest as f$*k, hope tipp and Limerick don’t kill each other next week, will be a bruiser! 🇳🇬🇳🇬

Declan Hannon is like @TomBrady of Hurling in this game, he’s showing up everywhere & giving sublime ball into forward line #LIMvCLA

Cathal Mannion over the moon with that win and getting MOTM!!. #galvkill

Very Sad to hear of the passing of Padraig Carney "The Flying Doctor". A Mayo legend of the the 1951 winning team. Was very honoured to have met him as part of the Toughest Series in California thanks to… https://t.co/61GcnjoDqU
