I see Shinrone are one of the only clubs in south offaly with more than one on the team with 4 in total on the panel even though they have been relatively poor at underage over the last few years.
I thought Birr would have more as they were strong at minor / under 21 over the last few years.

Any word on this years team? Who are the key players?
Any challenge matches recently.
Disappointing that championship is starting Monday and there has been little or no preview / discussion that I aware of.

A few new faces on the panel at tonight's training - all signs are positive for the next few weeks.

Westmeath 2-20 Offaly 4-14

Offaly 3-14 Laois 2-18

Wasn't in attendance but both teams missing a number of regulars from what I heard.
KK also beat Belmont by 7 points.

Coolderry - Cannot see them topping the group this year but will still be thereabouts come semi finals K/K - Age will probably come against them and not too many young players to come through that could make a difference. Can still see them making a semi final Belmont - All the talent in the world g...

Perhaps he was not happy with this weeks match clashing with his club dinner dance

Does anyone know if pairings for the first round of championship have been decided?

I have heard that Danny Owens is back at the helm in KK - can anyone confirm this?
And Ballinamere have appointed a Hannon - is this the same Hannon who was involved with Rynaghs over the last few years?

Cant really blame the clearys having being overlooked last year in favour of their younger brother who has yet to establish himself on the Shinrone team.

I don't think the Doughans have the pace required for inter county hurling

Clara Hurlers got bet in 1st round
