Meath v Donegal: What time, what channel and all you need to know about the All-Ireland SFC semi-final
It's no revelation that Meath are the surprise package in this year's All-Ireland semi-final roundup, with the Royal County surprising everyone to beat Kerry and Galway en route to the penultimate phase of the competition. On Sunday they face Jim McGuinness' Donegal in Croke Park. A monumental task, but far from impossible. Meath haven't taken part in an All-Ireland semi-final since 2009 when they lost to Kerry. Furthermore they haven't made the final since 2001, where they lost to Galway. It's a huge day for both teams. McGuinness will look to steer his men to their first final since 2014. When Donegal last lifted the Sam Maguire cup in 2012, McGuinness was the manager and Michael Murphy was man of the match. Another titanic performance will be needed from the Donegal skipper on Sunday if they are to book a place in the decider. Here's all you need to know. Where and when is it on? The game will take place at 4pm on Sunday, July 13, at Croke Park. Where can I watch the game? It will be shown live on RTÉ2, with coverage starting at 3.15pm. It will also be shown on BBC2. Who's the referee? Liam Devenney from Mayo is the man in the middle for this mouth-watering clash. What can I read about and listen to on Our reporters will be building up to the semi-final throughout the weekend and previewing the game ahead of Sunday's throw-in. You can listen to James Horan, Maurice Brosnan and Paul Rouse on the Gaelic Football Show where they are joined by former Meath star Shane McEntee and Tyrone legend Peter Canavan.

Kerry v Tyrone: What time, what channel and all you need to know about the All-Ireland SFC semi-final
Kerry are looking like themselves once again after a magnificent second half display against current Sam Maguire holders Armagh at the quarter final stage. Few are as familiar with the big stage as the Kingdom but if they are to make it to their 60th All-Ireland football final they'll have to overcome a team that sent them packing at the same stage four years ago. There will be a hint of revenge on the cards for Kerry this Saturday aswell after their minors went down to Tyrone in the decider on Sunday. The first of the two All-Ireland Senior Football Championship semi-finals this weekend, Kerry and Tyrone is likely to be as tactical as it is physical. Jack O'Connor's men will be looking to produce them same free-flowing destructive brand of football that they showed against Armagh. The Kerry head coach knows his team will have their work cut out for them after watching Malachy O'Rourke's side dispatch of the Dubs in their own back yard with relative ease. A rivalry has steadily grown over the decades between the two teams from opposite ends of the country. The sides met in 2005 and 2008 All-Ireland finals, as well as semi-finals in 2003, 2015, 2019 and, as previously mentioned, 2021. The teams haven't met in two years, however. Their most recent championship clash was in 2023, when Kerry won. Where and when is it on? The game will take place at 5pm on Saturday, July 12, at Croke Park. Where can I watch the game? It will be shown live on RTÉ2, with coverage starting at 2.15pm as the match will be preceded by the Tailteann Cup final between Kildare and Limerick. It will also be shown on BBC2. Who's the referee? Joe McQuillan will referee the game. What can I read about and listen to on Our reporters will be building up to the semi-final throughout the weekend and previewing the game ahead of Saturday's throw-in. Kerry have already had a couple of early setbacks with two key players set to miss the semi-final through injury. In the meantime, Jack O'Connor has been singing the praises of the opposition. And after clinching the minor title manager Gerard Donnelly echoed the words of Tyrone natives the county over in hoping their men can take home the big one and make it a season to remember for the Red Hand. Last, but certainly not least, you can listen to James Horan, Maurice Brosnan and Paul Rouse on the Gaelic Football Show where they are joined by former Meath star Shane McEntee and Tyrone legend Peter Canavan.
