I blame the Russians  ;D
Messing with our elections, over here in The States, is one thing but if they're going to interfere with me watching Laois hurling---well, that's just going too far!  >:(
LAOIS! LAOIS! LAOIS!

Maybe Donald can do something while he's over here. Or better still, I'm sure Shane Ross would love to be seen with Paddy Purcell lifting the Joe McDonagh Cup.

Kavanagh named on the team, after all that.

Great news on Mark Kavanagh. Is Lee Cleere injured?

Delighted to hear Kavanagh is OK.
To my memory, the team named in advance has always started to date so I wouldn't expect any changes.

Lee Cleere has picked up a recurrence of a shoulder injury and is a doubt for the rest of the games. A huge blow as I think he's having a great year.

Aaron Dunphy back is a great boost and Picky Maher is also included on the bench for the first time.

Our forwards should be good enough to win this if they get half enough ball.

Will be all about possession. Kerry have been able to handle us in recent years because they won a huge percentage of the puck outs. This year Laois have moved on physically, are winning more ball and are turning the opposition over frequently. If we work hard for 70 minutes I can see us winning with some style.

They'll need to rein in those wide shots, too.

I'm looking forward to this. Tralee is always nice to visit. Last year was a big wake-up call with us being favourites and then how easily we were beaten. Hopefully we are better prepared this year.

As expected Mark is sadly out. Foyle in for him.

The antrim Live Stream was having issues as well but came back on for the last 20 minutes of the second half
