0-6 to 1-3 at the water break. Better pace to this than i expected. Laois playing with plenty of men deep, Shanagher and the fullback fairly mixing it but Shanagher looks like he will do damage any time the ball goes in.
Laois working hard but I think they will wilt fairly early. Some of the more physical Clare players are blowing through them at times
That’s a pure Ryan Taylor score
Second fine save by Rowland. He might finally get that all star
SOD telegraphed his intentions there. Reidy might have passed it to the man on his left
Would have been a lovely move if he finished it.
Laois just about hanging in there. It’s league hurling on a nice pitch
No pelanty there?
Laois clinging on but no real threat up front and even less now Roddy has gone
Guilfoyle needed that, he has been quiet
So much of Laois’s attacks are finger tip stuff. So easy for them to break down.
Shanagher is bullying that poor chap. If he could hurl he would have serious damage done
Yer man hurls in the third tier in Laois. Probably not the best prep for intercounty.
Kavanagh can’t be missing them. Morale drainer
Kavanagh shouldnt even be out there, it’s madness he’s hurling
David Mcinerney sent off - off the ball incident. He was hurling well, he will be a loss
Game on Ger
Score?
14 to 1-5. Sending off should make no odds I’d say
Butchered that chance with men over
Idiotic from Downey there. Short puck outs me hoop.
Yeah, i think our attitude and work rate without the ball has been very good. Hope to see it continue with 14 men.
16 to 1-6 at the half.
