GAA: Draw For Round 3 Of All-Ireland SFC Throws Up Huge Fixtures

The draw for Round 3 of the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship was confirmed earlier this morning, with some massive GAA games on the horizon this weekend.
We were treated to a thrilling weekend of action over the last few days, one which was not short on shock results. Two of this year's big Sam Maguire favourites, Donegal and Armagh, would suffer losses to Cork and Louth respectively.
Very few GAA fans would have seen those results coming, but they have certainly added an extra layer of intrigue to the draw for the next round.
With the likes of Kerry, Dublin, and Mayo also present, GAA fans will have some huge fixtures to look forward to this weekend.
