Unfortunately we loose SOD to Harvard now though. Massive shock in the game prior to that where Wolfe tones scored a goal with the last puck of the game to put clonlara out and into the relegation battle. Clooney had a fairly comfortable win over Kilmaley which I was surprised about. The game of the weekend lived up to its billing as ballyea eventually got over cratloe after extra time. Looks like Tony put on a masterclass.

Hidalgo wrote: » Corofin would have the potential to push Feakle but that would depend on football, think the majority of their team are dual so progress in football might determine how they fare out in the hurling. Corofin V Kilfenora in intermediate football next weekend should be neighbourly, Cian O Dea hurling with Corofin adding to the mix. Ideally for Feakle, today's win over Broadford would have been knockout. I still think they could topple Feakle in the latter stages, or at least be a big threat to them
Stationmaster wrote: » Great coverage Windy - well done and thanks. Just a small thing though - neither Tulla nor Whitegate would consider themselves to be even close to North Clare! I was in the park yesterday but was there for the first one today - Aidan McCarthy was savage. 7 points from play. Bad enough for Newmarket to be in relegation but to have Guilfoyle sent off on a straight red is a fierce blow too. Lastly, I had a very good view of what David Reidy did last week to get sent off and I've seen the video evidence - I still have no idea how his appeal was one!
windy shepard henderson wrote: » well i doubt you can get much further north then whitegate village in this county :pac: its not even a darby if you think about it both parrishis are miles appart , i reguard guilfoyle as a serious tallent in the making if a possition is found for the guy , the clare u21 management had him at full back at one stage , his best possition is probably wing forward but the blues play himself and stephen kelly as a 2 man full forward line and i think he could score more out the field . himself and diarmuid ryan will be huge additions to the clare side in the next few years but you cant dismiss the effect newmarket celtic has had on the blues this year they will probably avoid the drop but will need to find a ballence next year, guilfoyle is a huge loss the next day out though i didnt see what happened in the eire og game last week with reidy so cant really comment , if i was to comment on a refree over the weekend , jarlath donellan had a brillient game reffing cratloe v ballyea , but hte sending off of jamie arthur was harsh , while it was a wild swing the player was 100% commited to playing the ball and should be over turned
