Just started this to avoid confusion with the 2020 thread.
Great result for Castletown the other night!

Laois man

Ye Ctown the better team hit a lot of wides aswell. Borris/kilcotton very lucky to get a draw. Rdowney looked very good again Camross.

Great results for Castletown, Abbeyleix & Ballyfin.
Abbeyleix might be a little deflated right now, but I think when they reflect on things this point may be a very valuable one. I genuinely think they will beat Camross.
Worrying times for Ballinakill.
Borris Kilcotton will improve.
Rosenallis have Keating and possibly Dooley to return.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled.......

Dooley? Thought he was tied up w/ the rugby?

Borris/ Kilcotton may improve short-term, but long term? Their second team is old, and what have they coming through underage?

Keyser Söze

I just read the report of their second team's game. Jesus that is an old team. There must be a large number of young lads hurling junior?

Dooley is tied up currently. He is hardly tied up on a permanent contract or for 12 months of the year at this stage? Or perhaps he is?

I have no idea what contract he's on, but if he's with Leinster u20s, he won't be hurling. I think they get a week or two break in October, and he may be available for a game then, but depends what way the Rosenalis games fall, I suppose.

C/B and Rosenalis a draw?!

Think Camross could rattle B/K.

Well spotted. Fixed that there. Can't see Rosenallis keeping it tight unfortunately.

Castletown first team into the qfinal good game last night Harps got a ball of soft frees Ctown hit 3.11 from play. Rdowney and Borris /kcotton to win today.

Rosenallis have some job on their hands to stay senior

Hard to see Rosenallis staying up hard to do both codes with a small panel. Cbolla should top the group looking like it could be a Rdowney v Cbolla final but Borris/kcotton will think different i think.

burdizzo

I see David Dooley did in fact play at the weekend. Not that it made much difference...

Robbo

I think Borris/K could catch Rathdowney the next day.
Especially with Ross King not playing. Would give them a massive boost.

Rosenallis and The Harps could be a nervy game. The Harps surely have better hurlers.

Ballacolla will beat Castletown and I think Camross will overcome Abbeyleix.

Intermediate looks very open. Portlaoise and Ballinakill are probably the teams to beat. Wouldn't rule out Ballyfin; the weekends loss might be the kick they needed. Colt-Shanahoe likely to go down. Be interesting to see if the amalgamation could withstand that.
