    Jesus that awful to hear.I hope he make's a full recovery.He is a top class hurler.
    Cork know all too well what it's like to loose a player.The amount of injuries so far to top class intercounty stars that have been ruled out for the season this year is shocking,and the championship has not even started.
    Shattered kneecap, out for year?

    That's according to reports. Sure the year is only another four months at intercounty level anyway.

    Nasty injury for Daniels, hopefully he'll make a full recovery whatever length of time it takes.
    It sounds such a bad injury, but possibly not as serious long-term as something like ACL

    President Liam O'Neill says that moving minor grade to U17 would be a much more practical departure than changing U21 to U20.

    He has confirmed that the future of U21 football and hurling is safe but says in The Irish Daily Star that minor action as we know it could soon be a thing of the past:

    "We're trying to formulate a policy at the moment where minor would become U17 and then those U17s would not play adult games.

    "You could have minor and adult league games then going on at the same time. It would really streamline fixtures a lot. U21 becoming U20 wouldn't do enough to justify breaking that tie we have. It's there since 1965 and it's working well. I wouldn't like to be the one to change it."

    "The brand of under 21 seems strong enough to hold. I'm not in favour of breaking a brand unless you're sure that what's going to replace it is stronger. I don't see a danger to the U21 title."

    Waterford at -2 points in the handicap for tomorrow nights minor match (evens) seems like great value to me.

    Passage and Dungarvan play in Walsh Park in the following round. I'd say these things pretty much balance themselves out. There are plenty of clubs that aren't located in the City or in Dungarvan so to be honest wouldn't have any sympathy for those teams having to travel and it's max 20-30 minutes they have to travel. No issue there.

    its about 20mins from passage into waterford city and a good 40mins from there to dungarvan so i dunno where your getting 20mins out of...at least if they brought some of the games to say lemybrien it would take the "home" advantage away from dungarvan and abbeyside somewhat. rarely you see tallow being brought past dungarvan so why bring passage beyond walsh park, its the equivalent at opposite ends of the county.

    Best of luck to the minors this evening against Clare. This will be the last chance for them this year so it should add an extra bit of bite to the game.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see stephen bennett in from the start, had a nice break since the last game could have done wonders for him

    Reckon one of the tastier games this weekend could be Tourin V Cappoquin. Local derby where anything could happen. Might be worth a journey to Lismore. Anyone know if Daragh Fives is fit? If he is, it'll probably sway the game in Tourin's direction.

    Ya probably be Tourins game alright, espeically seeing as there is alot of trouble up in Cappoquin, the management team walked out en masse a few weeks ago and some players are gone too

    Shane transferred to Carrigtwohill at the start of this year, his brothers Daragh and Niall play with Tourin, as far as I know there is a lot of upheavel in Cappoquin, players have walked and management also.

    I’d say Tourin would be favourites to head back to junior this year. A club that’s going backwards, they were the only western intermediate club to refuse to take part in the league this year. Darragh Fives would be better off leaving them aswell and any other decent hurlers they have left. Cappoquin should beat them handy even with their own internal problems at the moment.
