**Ciaran Kilkenny **continues to impress for the All Ireland champions, who cruised to an emphatic win over Wicklow at O'Moore Park.

Kilkenny struck 1-7 from play as Dublin set up a Leinster semi-final meeting against Longford at Croke Park.

Luke Connolly provided the scores and inspiration for Cork, who demolished Tipperary in the Munster Senior Football Championship at Semple Stadium on Saturday.

The gifted Nemo Rangers attacker struck 0-10 including five sweet points from play for Ronan McCarthy's outfit.

It has been an encouraging year for Laois and Paul Kingston delivered a stylish display against Westmeath.

Kingston contributed 3-2 for John Sugrue's developing team, who advanced to the penultimate round in Leinster.
