Dublin at risk | Donegal weather & winter ball | Leinster teams so far behind — Poacher previews

Previews of the big games this weekend: Monaghan v Kerry, Dublin v Meath, Galway v Mayo, and Donegal v Tyrone

Shane Stapleton and former Carlow and current Down minor coach Steven Poacher preview the big games this weekend: Monaghan v Kerry, Dublin v Meath, Galway v Mayo, and Donegal v Tyrone.

The National Football Leagues return to action this weekend after a break of 231 days.

A number of issues still have to be sorted out across the divisions as we enter the last two rounds of regulation games.

This weekend, Padraic Joyce’s Galway — who have recently been put through their paces by Jim McGuinness — are in action against their neighbours Mayo.

Dublin, with manager Dessie Farrell, still in his first season at the helm entertain a Meath side that has lost all five games so far in their campaign.

Donegal also meet Ulster rivals Tyrone, while Kerry make the long trip to Monaghan.
