Louth urged to go 'hell for leather' against Donegal in All-Ireland clash
Tommy Durnin says that Louth must go "hell for leather" against Donegal - and finally produce a 70 minute performance as they face one of Gaelic Football's toughest challenges. Ger Brennan's charges made it a summer that will always be remembered in the Wee County when they won a first Leinster SFC final in 68 years. But having made the All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals by beating Clare last weekend, their reward is a trip to Ballybofey to meet Ulster champions Donegal - one of the big favourites to lift the Sam Maguire Cup next month. For Durnin, the three-point victory over Clare to progress from the group summed up the season so far. They made a slow start and made some stupid mistakes mixed with some scintillating attacking play spearheaded by Sam Mulroy and Ciaran Downey. There is an urgent need to now find a complete performance in an attempt to rattle Donegal. "We have confidence, it's just that we're not playing to our full potential and that's the most frustrating thing," said the tireless midfielder. "In that second half against Clare we did stupid things and I don't know why, when we should just kick on. "Confidence isn't an issue, it's just getting 70 minutes out of ourselves. It's just going out there and expressing ourselves. "Sunday was a big game with a lot of pressure on, but I wouldn't be happy with how we finished it out. "Now it's on the day, it's about momentum, about winning kick-outs and you just give it all. "If we play 70 minutes to our full potential then we can beat any team in the country. Again last Sunday we didn't start well but if we can put in that full 70 minutes then we wouldn't fear anyone." Louth will have learned from last year's All-Ireland quarter-final meeting with Jim McGuinness' side at Croke Park, when they lost by eight points. They will experience much more of a cauldron-like atmosphere at MacCumhaill Park, where Tir Chonaill fans will be expecting a home victory. For Durnin, the key for the Wee County is to hammer any hard-earned advantage home by kicking the scoreboard ticking over. "We're not finishing our games when we've had chances," the Ardee St Marys clubman admitted. "A six or eight point lead now is nothing, you need to kick on. It's never safe and so we need to keep taking those two pointers, one pointers. "We don't make life too easy for ourselves. There were moments there in the second half only for Niall McDonnell making saves we would have been in trouble, but we got out in the end and we'll look forward now. "We just need to start killing teams, we haven't done it all year. We've been good for 20, 30 minutes but then bad for 10 minutes after that. "We're pulling results out but we keep the hearts beating, that's for sure. We do enough but we know ourselves we need to start killing games off. "When we run at teams we're very good, sometimes we go over and back too much but when we do go at them directly we're very, very good. "We need more of that. When you have Craig Lennon and Ciaran Downey and these boys running at you, they're very hard to stop. So it's just about opening the space." While concerned that his side allowed the Banner back into the game at O'Moore Park, Brennan was pleased to give game time to young players - including Durnin's midfield partner Dara McDonnell, who impressed, and debutant Ryan Walsh off the bench. "There's a lot of competition, there's under-20s coming in there now so there's a lot of big men looking for involvement and that's what we need, it's great," said Durnin. "It's hell for leather in training. If anyone had seen last Saturday morning in training, there were boys taking scalps and that's what you need, nobody's position is safe in this team. "Guys took their opportunity and it will be the same this weekend, we'll be ready to go. "Let's go hell for leather and don't hold back, to the best of your ability and don't fear anyone. Whoever is in the first 15, that's their chance."

Dessie Farrell hopeful Con O'Callaghan will be fighting fit for quarter-final
Dublin's Con-undrum. The deflationary impact on the county's supporters of the news that Con O'Callaghan would not line out was testament to the captain's importance to his team. Official confirmation of this state of affairs had emerged in the aftermath of the previous match he had missed in Croke Park, the defeat by Armagh when the wildness of the shooting, 18 wides, prompted a not so coded reaction from manager Dessie Farrell: ' ... one or two players that we needed something from, we needed a score or two from, just they never came from us and the gap was always too big.' Two weeks later, O'Callaghan was a late addition to the team to play Derry. The problem was a hamstring injury picked up against Galway in the vital group win in Salthill. After the narrow victory, Farrell admitted the player's inclusion had been a bit of a gamble. 'Yeah, you're never sure. We toyed with the idea maybe of holding him and keeping him for impact. But the risk with a player who's been injured and keeping him is that you use a sub and then he goes down and you have to use another sub, so we said we'd go Con from the start in the finish up and just delighted he was able to get through the game.' READ MORE Despite this full match and 0-5 scored, there were clearly concerns about his actual fitness. Farrell had a decision to make on Saturday. Could Dublin navigate the challenge of Cork without their key leader and attacking presence? He was completely aware of the pitfalls of being seen to take opponents lightly by keeping O'Callaghan under wraps. 'Yeah, that was the plan. It's not to say that we knew this wouldn't be a tight affair but we were just going to hope that we had enough. There were conversations with the coaches with a couple of minutes to go. We just decided to hold on. If it was a little bit tighter, I think you would have seen him come in for sure, yeah. 'We took the decision not to bring him on there. We sort of run the gauntlet on it a little bit for the last 10 minutes or so. Thankfully, that decision worked out, and we gave him an extra seven days to recover, and he should be good for the next day.' If 'should be good for the next day' doesn't sound like a ringing declaration, the decision at least gives the player another week for recovery. Dublin will know their All-Ireland quarter-final opponents on Monday when the draw is made shortly after 8.30am on Morning Ireland. The teams in the other pot are Armagh, Meath, Monaghan and Tyrone. As they met in the group stages, Dublin are protected from Armagh but can draw any of the other three. Meath have already defeated them in this year's Leinster semi-final.
