Leinster Hurling Qualifier Group 2016 - 2 Like(s)
Delighted for our Hurlers, Massive win today in terms of, if we had lost it would of been the final nail in the Offaly hurling coffin. Its true what they say, goals win games. After all the abuse and negativity around the county in the last few weeks it's great to get the 3 championship wins in a week (Minor Footballers and Seniors). Onwards and Upwards.
On a side note; Kerry and Carlow should be in the qualifiers

Offaly V Laois L.S.H.C 1/4 Final - 1 Like(s)
Replying To Andy: "Hard to know what to expect from us to be honest.
I think the round robin definately helped us last year as it allowed us to get some good competitive games under our belt. It seemed from the match that made the difference, Laois got into their stride that bit quicker while Offaly seemed sluggish.
I would expect the same to apply to Offaly now, and that they will be much sharper than us. That coupled with the game being in Tullamore and our poorish enough form in league leaves us with an uphill battle.
Would take any sort of result but the head says that Offaly might hold out for the win." A day out from the game and I'm feeling confident of beating Laois, after seen the teams named I'm confident we have the forwards to won primary possession and bang in a goal or two for the winning of the game. However I feel our defenders are weak enough too and Laois have very good forwards to also pick out the back of the net. The difference on the day could be Shane dooleys and Joseph Bergin who on their day are exceptional Hurlers.
Expecting a big crowd, good weather and a six pack of Bulmers on the terrace.
Hon the Faithful
