Dublin and Kerry stroll into All-Ireland quarter-finals after claiming provincial titles
Dublin and Kerry have walked their way into the All-Ireland quarter-finals after both teams claimed provincial titles on Saturday.
Kerry retained their Munster Senior Football title with ease after a win over Limerick at Fitzgerald Stadium.
Killan Spillane, who started in place of injured David Clifford, kicked 1-3 for the Kingdom.
The win counts as Kerry's 83rd provincial success.

Meanwhile, in the Leinster Football Championship final, Dublin were back in flying form with a win over Kildare in Croke Park.
Two goals from Cormac Costello sent Dessie Farrell's men on their way to a 12th title in a row.
Other goals for Dublin came from Con O'Callaghan, John Small and Ciaran Kilkenny.
The blitz of first half goal led Dublin to win 5-17 to 1-15.
The Dublin ladies footballers were also successful in their provincial exploits in Croke Park, beating All-Ireland champions Meath to be crowned Leinster champions.
The Royals were looking to add a Leinster football title to their National League and All-Ireland crowns recently.
However, Hannah Tyrell's penalty helped give the Dubs a 1-7 to 1-5 victory over their rivals in the provincial decider.
