Derry's Mark Craig has revealed that the Oakleafers are looking forward to Saturday's NFL clash against Dublin at Croke Park.

Craig, who will miss the game through injury, could be forgiven for being daunted by the task of facing the Dubs at GAA headquarters as they seek their first win of the campaign.

That is not the case for Craig and his team mates though as he told the County Derry Post that they were looking forward to their remaining games against Dublin and Cork.

"It's where you want to be - playing in Croke Park, and it's who you want to be playing against - the likes of Dublin," said Craig.

"It was all you ever dreamed of as a youngster, playing there. I'll miss out but I'd say the boys will be going down and giving it our best shot, and again try and put on a good performance."
