good man comerman.NOT UNTIL THE LAST PUCK!

Good win for Mooncoin against Dunnamaggin, hard fought game but didn't relinquish the lead.

Fair play to Comer to pull a gutsy performance out of the bag like that when needed most. After 20 mins there looked likelly to be only one winner but sport is a funny thing . Glenmore have definitely regressed from the last couple of years and look to be in serious trouble with Eoin Murphy being a serious loss at this stage of the year.

Was Michael Murphy injured for Comer?

Really looking forward to todays game between Village and Shamrocks. Can the Shamrocks pick it up yet again for championship or have they left it too late for once??

Good result. Feels like Mooncoin are coming in a little under the radar this year despite making county final last year. They are the team all of the seeded teams will be looking to avoid in the quarter final draw.

jaysus they are not that bad jonnie and I thought the two Waterford men gave them a bit of punch, I was working yesterday and I don’t have clubber but by all accounts the goalie made a balls of a few goals and when a team gets A run on you and a bit of momentum, well then it’s hard to reel them back would you not agree with that?

I would agree if a team gets a run it's hard to turn around but they were all over the place from about 20/25 mins onwards all over the field. Remember they got to a league final last year if I'm not mistaken and were hurling v well. Nowhere near that form at the minute imo.

Did someone on this tread said earlier that Eddie Brennan was going shite with Moycarky

I wouldn't think so either but that has nothing to do with you saying Glenmore have improved from last year. They haven't imo and looking at the village/shamrocks game, you would have to say they'll be favorites to go down. So from a league final and hurling well, it looks like they're in trouble this year

Quilty beating the shamrocks by himself

I don't think Frank's involved with the Shocks??

Scoreline is tough on the village

They suffered blow after blow with the goals and McDermott going off injured but they kept going and got back level

Then saved a penalty and it breaks to TJ, who does what he does, and they couldn’t pick themselves up off the canvas again

Shamrocks pulled away then and nobody will relish facing them from here on

Franks managed c shock in 2014 after retiring they got relegated that year

He went back playing in 2015 when the they won intermediate county title and intermediate all Ireland

He finshed up playing and has been with b Gunnar since was with Wexford seniors last year and Wexford u20s the year before with Rossitor when they beat kk in nowlan park

That`s their championship won for this year. Relegation games can take on a life of their own. BW and Comer were in the same boat really insofar as they`ve known for a couple of weeks they were in relegation and had time to process it whereas Carrickshock and Glenmore had to pick themselves up from the disappointment of last week.

You have to hand it to Ballyhale. The Village were unlucky to lose young Mac Dermott who was causing problems but as the game went on there was only going to be one winner. Whoever drops down to intermediate will have a great chance of coming straight back up but I`d say whoever drops to junior could be down for a while.

Any word on dates fixtures and venues regarding 1/4 finals senior/intermediate.some savage battles to look forward to

I don't know but by all reports he's on a good financial package so I'd say people are ready and waiting with the daggers once things go wrong.

I think it's more than a cliche to say Cody won't have ever felt pressure on the sideline like he will for the relegation final.
