Congrats to Coolderry and KK on qualifying directly for the semi finals. The direct route will suit both teams and both will be hard bet when the semi finals come around. I expect St Rynaghs and Birr to come through the quarter finals which should make for 2 good semi finals. Hopefully the CB will r...

I'd imagine they are seeded with tullamore and ballinamere being kept apart

This weekend
Ballinamere to beat brosna gaels by 7 points
Tullamore to beat shamrocks by 4 points
Lusmagh to beat clodiagh gaels by 3 points
Drumcullen to beat carrig by 5 points

KK v Kinnity - Kinnity will probably be focusing on the relegation play off so I expect KK to win this by 5-6 points Belmont v Shinrone - Hard to call, pressure on the Shinrone team to win but i expect Belmont to win by 2-3 points Birr v Clareen - Massive game for Clareen as i think they will strug...

Wins for Ballinamere, Clodiagh gaels and Carrig this weekend. Tullamore v Lusmagh postponed. Hard to know when this will be refixed with Tullamore being a dual club and midweek fixtures unlikely as the evenings get darker. I see Tullamore junior match also postponed - anyone know reason for postponm...

Agree shinrone threw this away- for all their talent they cannot see out a game and panicked once kk began to eat into their lead... work rate from shinrone forwards was very poor throughout and they relied on scores from distance throughout... at the same time I wouldn't rule kk out as they will on...

Things will be much clearer after penultimate round of fixtures this weekend. KK v Shinrone - KK by 6 points which will guarantee them place in knockout stages Coolderry v Kinnity - last chance saloon for Kinnity, they have a decent record over Coolderry and with Coolderry already assured of place i...

Awful game of hurling tonight in coolderry. Draw match. 2 very poor teams.

[quote="Plain of the Herbs"]Senior A fixtures nest weekend (Coolderry, Kinnitty, Rath and Lusmagh all getting a match, a trend that will hopefully continue): Friday 27th July: Shinrone v Kinnitty in Coolderry at 7.30pm - Shinrone by 12 points - Kinnitty backs unlikely to contain Shinrone F...

Rynaghs the most impressive team on show this weekend although KK were short a number of regulars

Predictions

Seir Kieran to win by 4 pts
Shinrone & coolderry to draw
Kk to win by 2 pts
Birr to win by 4 pts

Kinnitty v Seir Kieran - Saturday at 7.30pm in Shinrone

Coolderry v Shinrone - Sunday at 12.00pm in Birr
KK v St Rynaghs - Sunday at 1.30pm in Birr

Birr v Belmont - Sunday ay 7.30pm in Kilcormac

Questions after the weekend:

1. Are coolderry genuine contenders for Sean Robbins?
2. How far can shinrone go?
3. Have KK rediscovered their form?
4. Are kinnity favourites for relegation?

St Rynaghs to beat Kinitty by 5 pts
Seir Kieran to beat Shinrone by 4 pts
Coolderry to beat Belmont by 2 pts
KK to beat Birr by 4 pts

Overall should be 4 close matches which could go either way
