I don't see Na Piarsaigh beating Doon although it will be close
Doon were way more than a point better than them in the county final and I expect them to kick on now they have gotten the monkey of their backs of winning a county
Kilmallock look like they might be their biggest threats; they were a lot better than Patrickswell tonight
The Well prove hurling is a 15 man game with 3 hurlers of the year and still managing only what 4 points from play

Agreed. And quality if still not great has improved a lot
Better cameras and camera angles, decent commentary, interviews, replays.

Doon Na Piarsaigh was a decent match. Some good hurling even if both are finding their feet. Adam English got plenty of attention from WOD. Didn't score from play but looked very dangerous.
Apart from the first quarter NaP looked better than them and were missing several big names (Casey's and Borland). Missed a penalty and conceded a soft goal
They will meet again I think although not sure if it will be final or semi final

Whats the story with the 2 Caseys? And also what about Conor and Jerome Boylan?

Big win for ballybrown , are patrickswell slipping ? Could this be the year the top 4 finally changes . Monaleen had good win in group 2 , KP had an important victory. Adare & Dromin Athlacca under pressure already .

Commentator said Mike Casey was traveling but expected back soon
Peter Casey and Conor Boylan were holding hurleys so presumably injured
Don't know about Jerome Boylan

Didn't know that. I would have thought though this would have been publicised. Thanks a million.

Patrickswell looked bang average once Doon decided to up the Tempo. Patrickswell's 3 former hurlers of the year, looked miles off the pace in my opinion. Doon's county men were solid, Darragh O'Donovan in particular did an amount of work. Chris Thomas was excellent, and the Doon Full Forward did awful damage under the high ball.

Doon look like a really well coached side. Knew what they were about, well set up, and with a good support cast (especially the two Thomases) to take the burden off the likes of Adam English
Or maybe its because Patrickswell apart from the first quarter looked clueless - lamping high ball into Gillane seemed like their only tactic. Lynch was reduced to taking pot shots.
The weakness of the current senior set up is that the Well only have to win 2 games to qualify for the knockouts but on this performance they will be struggling to stay up. Ballybrown will be looking forward to playing them

Adare v Mungret was a right good game. Adare a little unlucky to not win it. Kearney looked like a definite one for the future.
