London vs Roscommon
Connacht Senior Football Championship – Quarter-Final
Throw-in: 2.30pm, Sunday
Venue: McGovern Park, Ruislip
Live on: GAA+
Roscommon head to Ruislip looking to kick-start their Connacht Championship campaign after a narrow defeat to Monaghan in the Division Two final. While silverware eluded them last weekend, the primary goal of promotion to Division One was secured—and with it, momentum heading into the summer.
Manager Davy Burke has used the league wisely, rotating over 30 players and building depth across the panel. Despite the experimentation, familiar names like the Smith and Murtagh brothers continue to lead the charge for the Rossies. Ultan Harney and Pearse Frost come into the starting XV this week, replacing Ciarán Lennon and Niall Higgins.
London, meanwhile, will relish the opportunity to host a top-tier opponent at McGovern Park. Under Michael Maher’s stewardship, they’ve shown steady improvement—claiming notable wins in Division Four and pushing several teams to the wire. With local talent like Shay Rafter, Josh Obahor, and Nathan McElwaine stepping up, the Exiles are quietly building a competitive side.
Bookies expect Roscommon to win by 19pts
