Kilkenny manager Brian Cody has insisted that a repeat of yesterday's performance against Offaly won't suffice against Galway next weekend. 

The Cats will make the trip to Pearse Stadium with two wins from two in the Leinster SHC round-robin series, but they were far from their best against the Faithful County who were in contention up until Liam Blanchfield scored a late goal for the second Sunday in-a-row.

"Our form from today won't be good enough to beat Galway," Cody said.

"It was a game we seemed to be reasonably in control of and then Offaly came back into it.

"Things became nervous for a while and we pulled away a small bit in the end. We played in patches. We were very good in patches. Then at other times we were a bit careless."
