This has been an entertaining few hours but good to have the venues finally confirmed.

Pity it isn’t the other way round.

1713

Wexford by 3
Limerick by 8

1714

I’d say they’ll hardly get 15k for the match in Cork on a Saturday afternoon.

1715

There will be a good Wexford crowd. Clare won’t travel.

1716

My lasses birthday party is at five. Will @bandage and @Big_Dan_Campbell tell them to get a move on.

Commentator’s eye.

1718

I’m sure it’s been dealt with already but I couldn’t be arsed reading back. If either or both of Kilkenny and Clare win, repeat provincial finals are avoided at semi final stage. What happens if both Wexford and Limerick win? Is there any proviso to avoid repeat provincial meetings from the round robin stage?

1719

Clarehurlers has gone into meltdown. They’ll be lucky to even get 15 players who could be arsed going to this.

Open draw.

Provincial Champions play a quarter-final winner, draw to be made to determine pairings subject to the respective provincial champions not meeting the defeated finalists from their own province at this stage and, where feasible, the avoidance of repeat pairings.

1723

So from a Limerick POV, we play Cork if Clare win & play Galway if Wexford win.

1724

we play Cork if Clare - Correct
play Galway if Wexford - Open Draw

1725

we play cork full stop if we win

1726

It’ll be Galway v Limerick & Cork v Wexford

1727
