By Michael McMullan CAVAN star Dara McVeety wasn’t risked in Saturday’s defeat to Antrim and manager Mickey Graham insists the Crosserlough man is “fine” with championship the main focus.

By Michael McMullan IT’S out of the frying pan and into the fire for Andy McEntee’s Antrim side this weekend as they welcome high-flying Cavan to Corrigan Park.

By Niall Gartland CAVAN are the only team in Division Three with a perfect record to their name ahead of their fourth round clash against mid-table Offaly on Sunday.
