Heimir Hallgrimsson will take note of David Moyes' latest Seamus Coleman update
Moyes confirmed that the veteran defender would miss Everton's final Premier League game of the season.
Coleman was, last weekend, handed his first start since St Stephen's Day so that he could captain the Toffees in their last ever Goodison Park clash, but the Donegalman was forced off midway through the first-half.
Jarrad Branthwaite was also taken off during the Southampton game with an injury. He too will sit out Everton's visit to Newcastle on Sunday.
Moyes said: 'Jarrad is injured and won't be available. He'll be out for four or five weeks with his hamstring [injury]. It's a big loss but we have to live with it.
'Seamus has a thigh strain so he won't be available, either.'
James Tarkowski (groin), Jesper Lindstrom (hernia) and Orel Mangala (knee) are the other absentees for Everton.
But it's the Coleman news that could force Hallgrímsson into a reshuffle, with the defender named as one of 24 players for the June games.
The 36-year-old hasn't played for the Boys in Green since Hallgrímsson's first game in charge last September, when he picked up an injury in the 2-0 defeat to England at the Aviva Stadium.

‘That is promising' – Jack O'Connor shares HUGE Kerry boost as two injured stars return to training with final looming
KERRY have received a boost ahead of the All-Ireland SFC final after Paul Geaney and Diarmuid O'Connor both trained yesterday. Kingdom boss Jack O'Connor is also refusing to rule Tom O'Sullivan out of 2 Jack O'Connor will be hoping it's a repeat of his 2014 final triumph over Donegal 2 Paul Geaney, 34, was also part of that 2014 success Despite being on the bench for the semi- and quarter-finals, forward Geaney has been out with a shoulder injury since the group clash against Cork. And with Barry Dan O'Sullivan sidelined for the season with knee ligament damage, Kerry's midfield options were dealt another blow when O'Connor aggravated a shoulder injury in the Two-time All-Star defender O'Sullivan also missed But Kerry chief O'Connor said most of his squad were 'back doing some training in some shape or form'. Read More On GAA He added: 'Tom O'Sullivan isn't back fully yet. He's doing bits and pieces so we'd hope that he'd train next week. 'Outside of that, we're not too bad.' At the climax of an injury-hit season, Kerry have a much cleaner bill of health ahead of their third All-Ireland final slot in four seasons. On O'Connor and Geaney, the Kingdom gaffer added last night: 'They trained fully today. Most read in GAA Football 'And there's a couple of more sessions to go, so that is promising.'

Armagh reached their third Ulster SFC final on the spin this summer but They still looked on course to claim back-to-back Sam Maguires when they topped their All-Ireland series group. But Kerry ended their summer with a 0-32 to 1-21 quarter-final victory last month. It remains to be seen if Armagh will replace the 2006 Footballer of the Year. Former Derry star Conleith Gilligan and ex-Orchard ace Ciarán McKeever are also on McGeeney's backroom. But four-time All-Ireland SFC winner Donaghy will be on the radar as eight counties hunt for new managers ahead of the 2026 campaign. Roscommon, Dublin, Sligo, Mayo, Waterford, Antrim, Cavan and Derry are managerless.

RTE Up for the Match competition winner is county councillor and TD's daughter
The winner of a pair of All-Ireland hurling final tickets on RTE's Up for the Match was Tipperary county councillor Máirín McGrath, who is the daughter of independent TD Mattie McGrath. The independent councillor for the Cahir Electoral Area on Tipperary County Council won a competition on the programme for a pair of tickets for Sunday's final between Tipp and Cork at Croke Park. Máirín went up against Toronto-based Cork fan Lisa-Marie O Mahony, who flew home from Canada for the decider. The competition saw Máirín and Lisa-Marie have to say if a former hurling star had more or less All Stars than the player that was called out before them. Máirín won the tickets after correctly guessing that Anna Geary (four) had more All Stars than Seán Óg Ó hAilpín (three). Speaking on the programme ahead of the game starting, Máirín said: "Big stakes for me. I'm with one of my friends. I'm her bridesmaid, she's getting married in a couple of weeks, but she's an insufferable Cork fan and so she's looking for a ticket too. She said if I win the game I'll be upgraded to maid of honour." Máirín McGrath and Mattie McGrath TD (Image: Instagram/ Máirín McGrath) Her victory amused viewers online, with one person writing on X: "Does @rte know one of the guests competing for tickets on Up For The Match is a county councillor in Tipperary and Mattie McGrath's daughter?" However, many people didn't see an issue with the county councillor winning the tickets. One viewer said: "Don't see the problem here? Are county councillors forbidden to enter competitions? Erm no is the answer" Another commented: "Do these things disqualify her from taking part? Of course not. Jasus, the manufactured outrage is tedious." Someone else said: "Why is this relevant? Is there a law forbidding councillors to keep for prizes?" RTE have been contacted by the Irish Mirror for comment.

All-Ireland hurling final: What time is throw-in for Cork v Tipperary today and can I still get tickets?
What's happening? Munster champions Cork face neighbours Tipperary in the All-Ireland senior hurling final at Croke Park. What time is throw-in? The final will be played on Sunday, July 20th with throw-in at 3.30pm. Where can I watch? The game will be televised live on RTÉ2 and BBC Sport NI. For those tuning in from overseas, GAA+ will stream the decider on their app and website. The Irish Times will also have live updates from Croke Park, as well as reaction and analysis from our team of writers. READ MORE How can I get tickets? As is always the case for All-Ireland finals, tickets will not go on general sale. They will instead be distributed through clubs, with the competing counties receiving the largest allocations.

No team news just yet as Pat Ryan and Liam Cahill are likely only on the pencil stages of their team planning as they put their panels through their final paces in the run-up to Sunday. The teams will be shared later this week – how closely they'll resemble the sides that line out on Sunday will be interesting in itself – but we'll update when they land. Championship so far After the heartbreak of last year's All-Ireland final defeat to Clare, Cork have come storming back in 2025. The Rebels fired an early warning in winning the league (beating Tipp in the Division 1A final back in April), but the ever-competitive Munster championship proved more trying. In their provincial opener in Ennis, Cork looked set a rousing victory, leading by 12 points at the break, only for the Banner to battle back to manage a draw. Next up was Tipperary, and Pat Ryan's side slotted in four goals to win by 15 points. The Rebel Rollercoaster sped on, this time hurtling towards a humbling 3-26 to 1-16 defeat to Limerick before a six-point win over Waterford to close out the group stages. Three weeks after their fourth-round bruising at the Gaelic Grounds, Cork ventured back to the Ennis Road to face their tormentors once again in a game that earned its place among the province's great deciders. With nothing to separate the teams after a pulsating 90 minutes, the result went to penalties, Cork triumphing to end Limerick's six-year hold on Munster.

Slow Lions build-up finally culminates in Test week Listen | 37:54 Just like Cork, Tipp's escapade through Munster had the full spectrum of results – a draw against Limerick in round one, followed by the loss to Cork at Páirc Uí Chaoimh and a pair of wins against Clare and Waterford. So close was this year's Munster championship, deciding the two finalists came down to scoring difference, Cork edging Tipp with their +5 to the latter's -3. Missing out on the provincial final, Liam Cahill's men instead took the long road, arriving at Sunday's All-Ireland final via rousing wins over Laois and Galway before their two-point (despite what the scoreboards may have said) semi-final win over Kilkenny. Last All-Ireland meetings It's almost beyond belief given their storied rivalry but these Munster foes have never met in an All-Ireland senior hurling final. [ Legend will become fact once more when Cork and Tipp meet in the ultimate superhero battle Opens in new window ] What's their recent All-Ireland record? Cork reached the All-Ireland final on four occasions (2006, 2013, 2021 and 2024) since their last triumph in 2005. A win on Sunday would mark their 31st All-Ireland SHC title. Tipperary have been much more acquainted with Liam MacCarthy over the last two decades, winning in 2010, 2016 and 2019, with three All-Ireland final defeats also coming in that period (2009, 2011 and 2014). A win on Sunday would be the Premier County's 29th All-Ireland SHC title, narrowing the gap to Cork who sit second in the All-Ireland roll of honour behind Kilkenny and their 36 titles.
