It was a disgraceful strike
Nothing to get worked up about.
Harmless stroke
+1
No surprise to see two Wexford fellas condone a mullocker breaking a talented players hand in a Final. Sad to see Renton cuckolded by them a the same.
Thinly veiled jealous that youâve never seen Laois contest a final of any significance
But harm was caused âŚ
High jinxs
I hope your horse dies.
It will someday mate, like all of us
Jesus OâDonnell must be made of glass, he barely tapped him, one handed and all.
Was that what all the complaining was about?
Free out, he threw the ball.
With the County side out of action relatively early in the summer you would have to think it is between Clonlara and Cratloe this year as both will have their big guns available to them for much longer than usual
Clare SHC
The quarter-finalists are now known and Clonlara, Cratloe, Crusheen, Clarecastle, Ballyea and Newmarket-on-Fergus will be joined by Ăire Ăg, Ennis and OâCallaghanâs Mill from senior B ranks in tonightâs last-eight draw.
Ballyea made the play-offs from Group 1 when they defeated Inagh-Kilnamona at Cusack Park on Saturday evening. Ballyea won 0-19 to 0-13 after trailing by 0-9 to 0-6 at the break.
Inagh-Kilnamona, with the wind, had the better of exchanges in the opening half, with the free-taking of Niall Arthur crucial in establishing a half-time lead.
Four unanswered Ballyea scores, inside seven minutes of the restart, turned the tide.
The sides were level on four occasions in the second period but a late flurry by Ballyea, with points by Damien Burke, Tony Kelly, Paul Flanagan and Gearoid OâConnell, saw them safely through.
In the same group, Clonlara, who had already qualified, consigned Clooney-Quin to a relegation battle, when they beat them by 1-21 to 1- 17 at Sixmilebridge yesterday.
Clooney-Quin led by 1-8 to 0-10 at the interval but an early second-half goal by John Conlon set Clonlara up for a merited win.
In Group 2, Tubber and Tulla faced off at Clarecastle on Saturday, in an attempt to avoid the relegation series.
Tubber came out on top by 1-14 to 0-13 having led by 1-5 to 0-4, at the break. Blaine Earley grabbed the gameâs only goal in the 22nd minute.
Old rivals Newmarket-on-Fergus and Clarecastle met at Cusack Park yesterday in a group decider. 2012 champions Newmarket won the bragging rights, finishing 1-17 to 1-13 ahead.
Playing with a strong wind in the opening half, they led 1-9 to 0-5 at half-time.
An early goal by full-forward Stephen Kelly put the Blues in pole position.
Clarecastle pulled back a goal through Packie Healy early in the second half but it wasnât enough to overcome their neighbours.
Last yearâs champions Sixmilebridge, though out of the running this season, stayed clear of relegation trouble thanks to a 2-19 to 0-14 victory over Kilmaley at Clarecastle on Saturday.
In front by 0-11 to 0-7 after the opening 30 minutes, the Bridge killed off Kilmaleyâs chances early in the second half, with an Alex Morey goal.
Alan Mulready grabbed another later in the half to see his side safely home.
Last eveningâs Group 3 top-of-the-table clash between Cratloe and Crusheen at Cusack Park was a repeat of the 2010 decider. Back then, Crusheen emerged victorious but this time Cratloe took the spoils, winning 0-15 to 0-12.
Aided by a strong breeze in the first-half, Cratloe led by 0-9 to 0-4 at the break.
A superb display by Conor McGrath saw him score 10 points â six from play â and he was in close contention for the man-of-the-match award with Cratloe centre-back Conor Ryan who impressed throughout.

If the pitches stay dry and quick it will come down to the two of them provided they stay apart in the draw.
Would be a serious match up. 14 senior panelists from the last 2 years between both teams. None of the nordie football style hurling played by SMB and NOF last year.
What is the provisional date for the County final? They will hardly leave it til the October bank holiday weekend.
conor cleary broke a bone in his hand 
OâNeill to be brought back in so. He has a good 4 weeks til the final, if it is a clean enough break he should make it
@chewy louie How are the relegation matchups looking?
Am I right in saying that thereâs 5 teams to go down to facilitate a restructured championship for next year? Who plays who or are some teams already relegated?
