Thanks Hesh - Laois fixtures are a hoor to find. Ever since ye're website went west it's all gone a bit pear shaped. Here's what I've gone with...
Hurling Laois Final Sunday 3.30pm 8/13 Portlaoise 8/1 Draw 6/4 Camross
Football Laois Semi Final Saturday 7.30pm 8/11 Arles Killeen 13/2 Draw 11/8 Stradbally
I'm probably a bit generous on Arles, but the more football Begley plays with Stradbally the better he'll get. A good midfielder is worth two other good players at club level I find. Don't really know too much about the hurling to be honest, other than I assume Camross are playing with a lot of zeal having been horsed out of the championship initially!
I'd say you're just about right on those odds LS. Camross will probably be licking their lips at being outsiders and I'd say a few of them wouldn't mind a bit of 6/4 but Portlaoise should be the classier better balanced team.
On the website thing, yeah the official one is gone west but http://www.laoistalk.com/ has filled the void very well indeed. The forum is very lively and you'd get a lot of info on form etc there.
