Donegal aims to avoid National League final contention

Donegal appears to be avoiding a spot in the National League final, as indicated by coach Jim McGuinness's recent comments. In their latest match, Donegal lost to Tyrone by six points, despite a strong start to the season. The League has become a balancing act for teams, with some aiming to avoid relegation while others steer clear of the finals. Derry's recent struggles highlight the risks of prioritizing the League over the Championship. In contrast, Kerry showed determination in their match against Armagh, dominating the game. Dublin also performed well against Galway, benefiting from their opponents' missed opportunities. Overall, the weekend's matches showcased varying levels of commitment among teams.
