Thats briliant. Big Convery must have thought he'd never win one.

A 3 point win today for Lusmagh over Rynaghs in the Offaly intermediate final sees the reds bounce straight back up to the senior ranks. Former Offaly player Aidan Hanrahan came off the bench early in the game for Lusmagh to give a man of the match performance

Rynaghs distracted by the All Ireland football final.

Tipp SHC quarter finals were on this weekend, and it was disappointing for the representatives from the North. Portroe were defeated 1-15 to 1-10 by Eire Óg Annacarthy while Kildangan got an awful mauling from Thurles Sarsfields, 3-22 to 1-12. The other quarters were won by Loughmore Castleiney, who beat Mullinahone 0-22 to 2-11 and Drom and Inch who took care of Clonoulty Rossmore 2-22 to 0-13.

In the Intermediate quarters, it was a better story for the north clubs, as both Ballina and Silvermines needed extra time to overcome Clonakenny and Moyne Templetouhy respectively. Sean Treacys beat Ballybacon/Grange and Rockwell and Saint Mary's was postponed.

I always thought of Dungarvan as a long lamented hurling wasteland!

How are Loughgiel going this year in comparison to last ?

Loughgiel beat Dunloy by 4 points in a scrappy hard fought game.

Ulster SF line up is as follows (correct me if i'm wrong)

Loughgiel (Antrim) v Na Fianna (Armagh)

Portaferry (Down v Swatragh (Derry)

Both likely to be Casement Park.  Not sure on dates.

De La Salle beat Mount Sion 0-18 to 2-8 and Dungarvan beat Fourmilewater 1-15 to 2-9 in the Waterford SHC semi finals. Dungarvan through to first senior final since 1951.

Great to see a club back in a county final after so long.

Portaferry won the Down championship with a 3-08 to 0-12 win over holders Ballycran.

Offaly final this Sunday. Bookies have it close with Rynaghs at 10/11 and Kilcormac/Killoughey at evens.
Hard one to call. Rynaghs were very impressive in the 1/4 final win over Coolderry, and had a six point win in the semi final. KK just about got over Birr in the semi final, but many of their players are now lining out for a third final which could be important.
Both teams have a good number of U21's on show, whoever wins could set themselves up for a few years.
Going to stick my neck out and go with Rynaghs, by two points

Kilmallock beat Adare in a close affair in Limerick,they will now play the Tipp champions in Kilmallock in the Munster Club Championship.

A 4 point win for KK in the offaly final.

They trailed rynaghs by 4 at half time, but they dominated the third quarter to open a 6 point lead which proved decisive. To top it off they also claimed the minor title
