Replying To stonemadbeany:  "Who's Brady? Still a lot of hurling in this championship. I think Ringtown will win this game, Pollard to beat Brownstown and Plunketts to win over Brigids. That would leave Pollard on 6pts, Plunketts & Brownstown on 4, Wood & Ringtown on 2. But apart from Pollard, each team seems to be capable of beating each other, including Brigids who seemed to improve in round 2."
That's a fair question seeing you're based in the States but there wouldn't be many within the Mullingar commuter belt who haven't heard of Brady. I suppose he's had a quiet start to the championship but any time I've seen him play his stick work has been very impressive and he seems to have put on a bit of size as well.

Liam Brady? Or Bobby Brady from the Brady bunch?

Raharney very impressive winners tonight versus Fr. Dalton's, seemed almost at full strength with Mulkerrins and Cillian D back, Eoghan Aherne lively in attack, Brian McGrath didn't start but he'd be a good addition. Team to beat in championship. Dalton's hurled well in long spells, missing Jack Duncan.

Great win for the Gaels this evening, it will give them confidence getting the scalp however they still scraped by a very understrength CTG who are missing 7 starters and will be stronger come knock out. I'd say it will be Raharney straight into a final this year on form and it will be the Gaels meeting a stronger CTG team in a semi final.

CTG will be very happy with that result a full near full hand for the gaels and castletown minus the few guys we all know about would leave them feeling confident on the run in. Raharney definitely the team to beat in Senior A
