That's a very favourable draw for the Under 21's. Every game at home except for Kilkenny game including the Leinster Final if they get to it. Would they have chance of winning Leinster?

Anyone shed any light on why the Offaly match is deferred until March 6th when the three other first round matches are on this weekend? Sigerson Cup commitments maybe?
The second round against Kilkenny is fixed for a Wednesday, presumably because of this deferral. This being fixed for midweek possiblyy accounts for the neutral venue?

Carlow have NHL and NFL fixtures that weekend and their under 21 panel contains members of both those squads - hence they got this postponement. In theory players playing twice on a given weekend is fine, but Carlow having a game each day snookered things completely.
