Results last night? Anybody have them?
Not sure of the exact scores but the results are:
Brigids beat Clara by a point (2:10 to 2:11 - I think)
Shamorcks beat Ferbane by 4 or 5 points
Grafefield sent Doon packing too by 3 points ... and James C was not near his best. If Gracefield took their chances it would have been well over by half time.

Was at the Doon - Gracefield game last night. Game should have been over by half time. It could have easily been a draw by half time too. Kellys miss from Ryans pass was one of the turning points. Doons 2 county men let them down badly. Hunt fumbled and dropped ball and i dont think he had a shot at the posts all evening. Gorman had Jimmy C in his pocket all night. Jimmy C's workrate in the doon jersey this year is not near whats required......even at club level. I could'nt believe that he just stood on the edge of the square all night. As a county player, he needs to be the big player for Doon. Get out the field, get posession and take the defenders on. Going on this years form he will be lucky to be invited back into the Offaly setup next year.
What was the story with the Doon midfielders? I've seen better performances from Junior B players!!

Id have to agree with that. James was not poor - he was worse than that -Not interested in the game at all.
Looks like a lad that is either getting too much of it or has lost his appetite and needs a rest from it all for a year or so.
Clara Game any one at it ??? - was it any good ?
Ferbane Game - Anyone at it - ditto ???

tubberVSt. Rynaghs
Was at the Tubber Rynaghs game in intermediate - final score 1-3 to 6 points. Very poor shooting and both teams will need to improve if they are going to go up to Senior next year. Replay now to see who tops the group and extra game may bring on both teams.
I was at the Clonbullogue - Daingean match which finished 0-7 to 0-6 for Clonbullogue.
Daingean needed to win. The draw would have been enough for Clonbullogue.
The game was actually quite entertaining despite the low score. Enda Quirke, the Clonbullogue full forward, was instrumental in a number of first half scores which proved valuable (0-5 to 0-3 at half time). I was told that Clonbullogue have lost Willie Crampton and Greg Quinn to long-term cruciate injuries so they had a couple of good youngsters playing including a fifteen-year old sub (Shane Furey?) and a sixteen year old (a Cocoman?).
Daingean have come down from Senior and now failed to qualify for the Intermediate Quarter-Finals.

Yep and the slide down from senior was not exactly dramatic. It's been a long slow painful experience for such a once great club. Hopefully they will hang in there till the good days return.Daingean have come down from Senior and now failed to qualify for the Intermediate Quarter-Finals.
Can Cloghan come up from Intermediate?
I think that Ballyfore are worth throwing a tenner on.
Tubber are a bit too up and down while Cloghan are something similar.

For Offaly's sake I'd like to see Tubber come up - they seem to have the greatest concentration of good underage players in the county of all the intermediate teams, and it would be great for all of them to be playing senior rather than intermediate.
In terms of likelihood, I'd agree though that Ballyfore are probably marginal favourites. I wouldn't be close enough to home to price it confidently, but I'd have them marginally ahead of Rynagh's, Tubber in third. Clonbullogue came closest last year, but for some reason I just don't see them making the jump. No real reason though.

Was at the clara v brigid's game. In a nutshell Clara threw it away. They had by far the more posession in the first half but did nothing with it and paid the price. Brigid's had two really ood periods either side of half time and that won the game for them. Clara will have to stop relying on John Reynolds so much if they want to go anywhere. Brigid's still look like the form though. If they turn it on they could put it up to the big guns in the next rounds.
