The news I heard out of Kilkenny was kind of mixed over the weekend.
Some good, some bad, some scary.

Henry Shefflin was taken off the frees by his club in their championship match against Clara.
TJ Reid took over but his form has been quite poor too. Cha is meant to be playing some excellent stuff these days as is Michael Fennelly.

Eoin Larkin has been very much struggling for form as of late.
A couple of weeks ago against Comer he was a pile of dung. He was missing easy frees and hitting a number of wides from play.
This week he started slowly against Fenians. Was porr in the first half hitting a couple of wides.
In the second half when put on JJ Delaney he suddenly burst in to life as did the rest of the Village with him as they put Fenians to the sword, the team scoring 4-8 in the last quarter. As I posted on another thread Larkin went down late on with what looked like a knee injury.
Hopefully he will be ok to face Dublin. JJ was good but for the while Larkin was on him. PJ Ryan could do little about the goals.

I heard that Gorta and Brian Hogan were good for Loughlins against Muckalee.
John Mulhall was a sub for Muckalee. Bizarre.

Richie Power was not expected to play against Tullaroan for Carrickshock but did and they won.

Been reported this morning that Cha has damaged his hamstring and is out for a month.

Yeah, unfortunate for the lad.
Hopefully he’ll be ready for the AI series.

Laois: Eoin Reilly; John A Delaney, Darren Maher, Cahir Healy; Brian Campion, Matthew Whelan, Mick McEvoy; Conor Dunne, James Walsh; Joe Fitzpatrick, Zane Keenan, Willie Hyland; Tommy Fitzgerald, Neil Foyle, John Brophy.

Quite happy with that team. Costelloes loss doesnt weaken things much, and I think Keenan is made for 11. Need a big game from Willie but I think we have a very decent chance. Fair play to Cahir Healy one of the very few dual players, some buachaill.

Dublin 0-7 Queen’s County 0-6 after 30 minutes

The_Puke · June 6, 2010, 3:53pm

15-10 now to the dubs

farmerinthecity · June 6, 2010, 3:54pm

Noel O’Leary reminds me of Tipptops.

Sidney · June 6, 2010, 3:59pm

18-12 Dublin, Laois down to 14 men, the expected easy win is now in the bag.

I was looking at the 7 point handicap in the Dublin-Laois game beforehand and decided to leave it. I expected Dublin to have too much for Laois, who are utter cack, but Dublin are windy bastards too and I thought they might only scrape through.

I would like Wexford to draw Laois in the qualifiers now. My order of preference would be:

Laois
Antrim
Tipperary
Carlow

Bandage · June 6, 2010, 5:51pm

Tipperary away. Well fuck that.

myboyblue · June 7, 2010, 11:42am

:lol:

The_Runt · June 7, 2010, 6:02pm

What was the draw?

The_Puke · June 7, 2010, 6:07pm

Carlow V Laois, winners play antrim

Tipp V Wexford

Turenne · June 7, 2010, 8:15pm

Imagine meeting only Galway and Tipp before getting knocked out - hilarious! :lol:

The_Puke · June 7, 2010, 8:16pm

:unsure:

happened Clare last year

Turenne · June 7, 2010, 8:19pm

The Clare team aren’t a bunch of softcocks though.

Pikeman · June 8, 2010, 9:21am

Huh? Did you not hear about the Greg Jacob thing?
No softcocks in Wexford anyway lad, that’s for sure.
