Purcell is a serious hurler but maybe Laois need him more involved in general play. He’s scored with almost every possession.

Lacking a bit of a cut
Is scoring not general play?

If Laois tidy up a little they look to be the better team. Definitely seem to have had more of the play.

It’s like a good Leinster under-21 semi-final on a Wednesday night in late June.
Lots of little slips and mishandling at crucial times for Laois.

Laois very reliant on their midfielders especially Purcell for one off scores. Hard not to see Offaly pushing on.
Number 10 for Laois is your stereotypical useless modern day wing forward who covers about 15km per game but can’t hurl for shit, he’s cost them about 0-4 on turnovers.
Indeed.
It is but you’d be hoping for him to be getting on a little bit more ball.
Nice finish from Kelly.
Some disaster for Laois
Both teams trying to avoid Wexford here.
Screeney getting eating up by men here.
Duggan wasn’t even close to connecting with the ball with that pull. Dreadful decision making.
Two goal chances from him and Offaly go down and get 0-2. Offaly are more even and better.
Laois struggling with the wind now.
Laois really gone out of it now. Awful decision making
The name “Picky” Maher makes me giggle foolishly like when Homer Simpson giggled like a schoolgirl at the sound of the word “titmouse”.
But I don’t giggle when I hear the name “Mouse” Kavanagh.
I very much hope Picky Maher got his name from picking his nose as a child.
Charlie Mitchell has it
That’s a good reaction save.
