[Dave like the tv channel]

You'd expect one of the junior clubs to win this again.......PR or Rosenallis.

[Unlaoised]

The Heath Portlaoise and Joe's won't be too bad either!

[SCFC]

Graiguecullen will be strong in this.

[Heshs Umpire]

Rosenallis and Balylinan are through to round two - The Heath and Spink drew.

[SCFC]

Park, Graigue and Killeshin winners this week. Think Graigue will hard bet.

Park Ratheniska playing Rosenallis in round 2. They could well meet again in the final. Graigue seem to have a decent chance here too.

Depending on how ballinakill go in the hurling spink could still have a big say in this championship, they got within two of the heath in the replay without the ballinakill lads and have shown now they have lads well capable of stepping up above junior, it'll probably be between spink, ratheniska and rosenallis which is a good thing. Rather a first team win a championship when at all possible

Think park and Rosenallis will reach the final of this if they stay apart in the draw. Park were very good v joes Friday evening. Jim Langton is a fine footballer.

Portlaoise V Ballyroan could be a cracker Thursday night!

I see the Portlaoise Juniors then imtermediates then seniors play one night after another ...If it was the opposite way around I wonder how strong the Intermediates and then the juniors would be...

Not really fair as if the beat Park which they might their team could be severally weakened for the final which is unfair on Park.The system is wrong!

[Heshs Umpire]

To be fair Portlaoise intermediates have three championship games played already this year.
Anyway I'd expect Park to beat them well in the junior.

If Portlaoise get to the junior final they won't be weaker by players moving up to intermediate. They've already used 22 or 23 lads for intermediate this year.

Be great if park and rosenalis win the semi final games,two genuine junior A teams,but reckon graigue wil hav a big say in things,a good few of the graigue team didnt commit to senior for one reason or another and are happy to kick a bit of junior,maybe thats why graigue struggled at senior level this year
