In-form Waterford made it three wins from three in Division 1 of the National League on Saturday.

The Déise preserved the only 100 per cent record in the top flight as they got the better of TG4 All-Ireland senior champions Dublin in Dungarvan.

A goal from Lauren McGregor helped Waterford lead by 1-6 to 0-4 at the break and they did not relent after the restart as they continued their winning start as TG4 All-Ireland champions Dublin fell to their third successive loss of the campaign.

Elsewhere in Division 1, there were two games on Sunday with the Armagh clash against Cork falling victim to the weather. League champions Kerry and Division 2 title holders Galway both chalked up their second wins of the campaign.

Kerry travelled to Meath and carved out a 4-10 to 2-12 with Síofra O’Shea scoring 1-6 and Leah McMahon getting two goals.

The reigning champions by 2-5 to 1-7 at half-time with Orla Finnegan getting the Meath goal, but Kerry got an edge again in the second half to make it two wins from three in the defence of their title.

Galway’s full-forward line of Andrea Trill, Leanne Coen and Róisín Leonard struck 3-7 between them as they defeated Kildare by 3-12 to 1-7 in Tuam.

Galway led by 2-6 to 0-5 at the break and pushed on from there as they bounced back from their loss to Cork last time out.

In Division 2 on Sunday, Donegal, with two goals from Katie Dowds and one from Ciara McGarvey, won the top of the table clash with Tyrone to preserve their 100 per cent start with a 3-9 to 1-8 win.

Mayo maintained their unbeaten start with a 0-9 to 0-7 win over Tipperary, while Cavan secured their second win when a goal from Niamh Keenaghan heled them to a 1-11 to 2-6 win over Wexford.

An early goal from Éabha Sherry set Monaghan on their way to their first win when they defeated a Westmeath side 1-12 to 1-6 who were also searching for their first victory.

In Division 3, leaders Down continued their impressive form by seeing off Clare by 7-13 to 4-13. There were also wins for Laois and Louth, while Roscommon and Antrim drew.
