Laois champions Camross have been dealt a significant blow ahead of next month's Leinster club SHC campaign after county hurler Dwane Palmer suffered a broken leg.

The versatile IT Carlow student sustained the season-ending injury in the early stages of a club challenge game against Galway champions St Thomas' last Sunday week.

Palmer, who underwent surgery last week, was a key figure for Arien Delaney's men in their march to a 25th county senior hurling title.

Camross are due to face Carlow kingpins Mount Leinster Rangers in the provincial quarter-final stage at O'Moore Park on November 5.
