Novenas completed, Abbeylara win the rematch to say up.
Mullinalaghta, Colmcille and Killoe finish level on points at the top of Division 1, with Mullinalaghta edging it on score difference, though not before enother stereotypical County Board fiasco where the county chairman left with the cup before the match was over under the impression that a three-way playoff would be required, before eventually returning to present the cup to a bemused Mullinalaghta captain.

Ok - Leinster championship beginning to bubble up nicely ........LOL
Since they met in the championship last year, Longford have lost Sean Mc Cormack, Barry Gilleran, Diarmuid Masterson , Peter Foy all retired. Darren Gallagher, Rian Brady and Dessie Reynolds travelling and exams. Connor Berry struggled with injury and taking a break. Shane Donohoe on UN duty and Robbie Smyth also absent. Pádraig Mc Cormack is only returning from injury and at present Donie Mc Elliott is suspended. Darragh Doherty having started 5 league games also out at present injured.. So possibly 11 who played in the qualifiers last year out.. Would have Kildare as hot favourites for this one
I was away last weekend so I missed things but it seems Kildare struggled to beat Wicklow.
We are fighting light with missing/suspended players so I cannot see us pulling off a win here.
But............you never know. If we win then it's Nowhere this year for Kildare, as opposed to Newbridge. We cuda/shuda won the Qualifier last year but we simply ran out of petheral.

Great to see the 3 league debutant as subs all scoring.
Summary of our win in Drogheda.
Longford were bad............Louth were worse.
Ah no - that's too glib. We just about deserved the win but for the last 10 mins we were 2 players up but still almost conspired not to win it.
A win is a win and we need these wins to survive in Div3. Louth will need to improve or they're heading for the wastelands of Div4.
Offaly at home next weekend. They'll have marked this down as a must-win. They may be too strong for us as we currently stand......
