    Tipp and Limerick well on top, but for a lot of sides Tipp would be out out of sight already, limerick probably already out of sight against wexford

    Limerick taking every chance that comes their way

    Wexford are really struggling to win any ball from the puck out

    Very one sided overall. Early days but impressive showings and scoring from both Tipp and Limerick

    Noteworthy high scoring win for Galway today. Waterford beat Kilkenny on an awful Walsh Park pitch and a fantastic win for Kerry in their first match in division 1B

    I was listening to our game today and watching the Waterford/Kilkenny game on TV the pitch was like a herd of cattle were left on it before the game

    Good win for us,hopefully we can stay competitive in the coming weeks and have a right cut off Offaly in the last game

    Was at the Waterford game myself, on a couple of occasions play had to be stopped cause the ball was buried in the turf.

    What's happened to Carlow this season? 17 point defeat to London at home.

    My (basic) understanding of Carlow is players not happy with management, sought a new management team at the end of last season but county board refused and reappointed the existing management team, which in turn led to a drop in commitment from players, supposedly only 15/16 players turned up for their first game of the season (Walsh Cup?). A lot of their better players making themselves unavailable and yet to return.

    Bit of a shame really, that was Carlow's worst result in a very very long time, unless there is a change in management or those players can be convinced to commit they're odds on favourites to be relegated from the McCarthy Cup this year.

    I think Waterford will be up against it on the 13th at home to Dublin. Cork to be relegated i think

    Waterford will be fancied to win that game and rightly so.

    I wouldn't pay too much attention to Waterford's own Mr doom and gloom PTH2009.

    If two teams are tied on points for relegation/play off spot does head to head come into play before score difference?

    Limerick are giving Laois a bit of a spanking in Division 1B at the moment. Half-time score and it's 3-15 to 0-6.

    Cork ****ed that away and if it stayed level Waterford would be guaranteed 1/2ND place.

    The 1b do or die Clare vs Limerick martch next weekend will be some clash. Can see Limerick winning it

    Think you are wrong on this one. A draw tonight and win for KK v Dublin would leave KK on 7 points one more than Waterford if they lost their last 2.

    Dublin could finish on 6 points beating Waterford and losing to KK, likewise Gal or Tipp could do so too.

    So the draw tonight alone wouldn't have ensured a top 2 for Waterford I think

    My mistake hopefully we win 2morrow to guarantee top spot

    It will be terrible to lose 2morrow but it will make our final game vs galway very interesting.

    Some poor shooting by Tipp so far. 7 wides I think after 17 minutes.

    Tipp impressive considering they are without Callinan, O'Dwyer and Forde. Ronan Maher playing well.

    Disaster end to the half for Tipp. But McGrath gets booked when blatantly obstructed
