TG4 All Ireland Intermediate Semi-Final – ET if necessary, Live TG4 SATURDAY – Meath v Roscommon, 1.00pm, Dr Hyde Park, Roscommon Tyrone were the first of confirmed 2018 TG4 All-Ireland Finalist to be confirmed and on Saturday, Roscommon or Meath will join them in the intermediate decider. Roscommon claimed an historic Connacht title earlier in the summer, ending Sligo’s hopes of three-in-a-row. The Rossies were most impressive in the All-Ireland qualifiers also, defeating Meath by six points and Fermanagh by 14 to top Group 4. That set Michael Finneran’s team up for a crack at Laois in the quarter-finals and this game will be remembered by those who were present in Moate as one of the finest of recent times. Two excellent teams went at it hammer and tongs and when the dust settled, Roscommon prevailed by four points. Roscommon last won the All-Ireland Intermediate crown back in 2005, while a win for Meath today would send them through to a very first final. There’s plenty at stake and while Meath have already lost out to today’s opponents in the 2018 championship, they won’t fear them. The Royals were disappointed to lose against Wicklow in the Leinster championship but their recovery has been steady and they’ve built a growing momentum. A big victory over Fermanagh was good enough for a second-place finish in Group 4 behind Roscommon but defeating Clare in the recent All-Ireland quarter-final was a result that made observers sit up and take notice.
