Good riddance to Crettyard.

Good riddance to Crettyard.

What did the yard ever do to you?

[SCFC]

Good riddance to Crettyard.

Good club. They'll be back. Don't go around stealing other clubs players either so sorry to see them slip down.

Cretty are a good club, age and numbers are against them thou. Silver lining of relegation is potential to win intermediate and get a run out in Leinster. I think its better to go down and win something rather then stick around the relegation for years.

Crettyard coming back up will depend on keeping O'Carroll. His body language doesn't hint at a fella who is happy playing there. I wouldn't be surprised to see him transferring up to Dublin over the winter.

[Countyminor]

Incredible first half from Joseph's. To manage 2 whole points in 30 minutes is some going. Love their attacking, free flowing football.

[Saint 1963]

You're dead right Countyminor. They should have gone all out and got their backsides handed to them like last year!

[les Antiques]

Portlaoise nowhere near like the team they were . Possibly there for the taking this year . Graigue or Port will fancy there chances . Delighted for Ballyfin,  thoroughly deserved win . Had there homework done on OD s .

[Laois Rising]

Killeshin and Ballyfin will be thrilled to have drawn one another for the semi-final. Both sides forward lines have been impressive so far in the championship. While Killeshin will go into the game as favourites, Ballyfin will certainly not fear them. Will take huge confidence from withstanding an O'Dempsey's fightback in second half.

As for Crettyard. If Evan O Carroll did decide to jump ship and play for a Dublin club they could struggle to stay afloat in the intermediate championship. Most of the team is nearer to 40 than 30 at this stage.

Killeshin v Ballyfin could be a cracker. I think Killeshin will come through though, the three lads that came back from America certainly added something to them against Ballylinan.

As you said above, Portlaoise are very much there for the taking. Winner of Graigue and Port could potentially win it out.

I actually fancied ballyfin to beat ODs (yeah I know,Easy be wise after the event!!) I think they'll do a job on Killeshin too. They have a lovely way of playing and serious pace up top which is the most important thing cos they hit teams so fast on the break. Moore has come on an awful lot in the past year too. They are a well drilled outfit and will play with nothing to lose now

Who is managing Ballyfin?

[Neutralobserver]

Great result for Ballyfin, we all got that one wrong, Killeshin will be a lot stronger physically and will also now take note of Ballyfin after the o'dempseys result, they will not take them for granted

Who is managing Ballyfin?

Killian Fitzpatrick, It's great to see Ballyfin and Killeshin in the Semi Final two very well drilled outfits.
