Big shock tonight,Derry beat Antrim by a point. Antrim can have no complaints about poor preparation as the team have been together since the start of the year.

Well done Derry. A nice little boost for the hurling. Thats the first time since 97 when we last won it.

Great evening for Derry hurling.  Delighted, played well throughout the field 'out-hurling' Antrim in many sectors.  Sean Leo McGoldrick being the difference in the end with two fine individual goals.  Sambo and Woody's silence should be deafening.  Antrim totally underestimated the OAKLEAFERS!   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Sambo was talking last week about how he saw the Dublin game as a huge game. Chickens, count dont etc. Are S & W false prophets?

I wonder what the excuses coming out of the Antrim camp will be, i had a feeling this would be closer than people thought as i dont think some of the "stars" on the Antrim team are as good as their management would have us believe. The usual excuses about Antrim U-21 lack of preparaton do not apply this year as the squad have been together all year, and have had plenty of training and challenge matches.

this was to be Antrim's bright future and when all these lads get to senior they will be taking on the kilkenny's of this world ;D.
As Sambo and Woody give any reasons for this defeat? i'm sure the majority of these lads were playing Senior and minor, championship club games so they would have been match fit and skill levels high

this is not taking anything away from Derry, well played and i hope you give it the same attitude for the semi final, as Dublin are nobody's fool
