Cavan and Donegal will meet in the final after another weekend of top-class action. Keith Duggan was in Breffni Park for Donegal's win over Tyrone on Saturday night and we give him the floor to wax on and wax off about Michael Murphy and the rest of his countymen.Throw in some aggressive non-lamenting for the Leinster Football Championship and a look ahead to Ireland v Gibraltar and that's your Monday Added Time, with Malachy Clerkin and Gavin Cummiskey.
