A round-up of all the big Gaelic football results on a busy weekend of club action around Ireland.

Dublin SFC

Ballyboden St Enda's remain on course for a football-hurling double in the capital, after seeing off St Jude's on Saturday. The reigning champs overcame their neighbours 2-11 to 1-11, with Simon Lambert and Robbie McDaid finding the net for the Firhouse Road outfit.

They will face Ballymun Kickhams in the final. The star-studded Kickhams side edged Kilmacud Crokes in a nail-biter, 1-18 to 2-12, but the game was marred by ugly scenes just before full-time, as Ballymun finished with 13 men.
