You wouldn't expect Dublin to take us for granted as we drew last year though and were on a par in the league.

Is there only a 1 week break after three games in Leinster?

Think everyone has a two week break, everyone bar Galway & Wexford have it now, they play this weekend and then have two week break. Slightly different to Munster as there are an even number of teams in Leinster
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Some notable results at club level at the weekend. the one i'm surprised the most over is with the scoreline in mckenna park. St Endas gave Ballycran a licking.

obviously cran have more than a few away with county in kerry but st endas must be going well. they've beaten ballycastle, put 1-16 on the board against cushendall and beaten cran. going well!

They were very good in the league last year too bu dropped off come championship. Maskey, if he's not away, is probably helping. They must have a few at county too.

I don't think you can read anything into league results at this time of year

Wexford beat Galway... we may hold our horses on talk of any knockouts...

half of me was thinking "sure if they can beat Galway, so can we" and the other half thought "oh Sh12"

imtommygunn

Likewise  ;D

Still if we beat Dublin and Carlow we would(most likely) go through so the Dublin game is a must win and tbh anything could happen in it.

Still need to beat Dublin and Carlow and that was always going to be the case anyway.

You could depend on Galway for nothing!

If we can press in the forward line like Wexford did, force the galway defence into mistakes, theres no reason why we cant give them a game too.

Obviously Dublin first, cant wait to see if we've a bit about us or did we catch wexford on a very off day

Dublin are a bit wishy, washy too, so Antrim shouldn't be going into the game fearing them one jot.
