Fancy st.pats and kilmallock to both win. Thinks st.pats with Hegerty, Cronin, Mullins brothers and Moran will have too much for Feenagh. Be close but pats just about once they stay disciplined. Think kilmallock by 7/8 points over st.marys

think rathkeale may have lost a great chance.thought they played more as a team than killmallock who were very individual.thought rathkeale had a very good centre back,2 good midfielders and number 10 was very impressive.the full forward line reallt threatened all day and probably should have scored more.some of the killmallock boys hit crazy shots which resulted in terrible wides.looking forward to the replay which i expect killmallock to win.can i just congratulate both teams in playing a fantastic game of hurling,no sweepers no extra men at the back,15 on 15 which was great to watch.

Big win for St pat's today. Very disappointed with Feenagh. Pats were able to match them physically and they didnt know what to do. Good solid performance from Pats with big games from half back line midfield and half forward line plus young Moran in the corner got 2 great goals. Feenagh only scored 3 pts in 2nd half and two of them came at end of the match. Should be a good final whoever Pats meet.

Great win for pats but feenagh were poor and game in general was poor esp towards yesterday's game. You'd think after today that either of kilmallock or Rath would win but it doesn't always work out that way. Good to see an inner city team in final and I suppose a rathkeale pats final would be best for Limerick hurling.

id agree someday it would be best if rathkeale were to make the final.if killmallock win st pats will represent limerick in munster as the second team in a senior club can,t.watching rathkeale on saturday t i think them and pats could be a great final.i,ve seen pats a few times and when they have everyone they are definitely very strong.it looks as if they are taking it serious.young moran is a decent forward and the mullins brothers are good hurlers.

I was at both games over the weekend and would disagree with your summation . Rathkeale steamrolled Kilmallock who couldn't cope with the football style of play that Rathkeale brought. I think they will be better prepared the next day and will come through. From the Feenagh game I thought Pats were just the better team. They had the better hurlers and the better structure. Once Feenagh couldn't physically impose themselves on Pats they had nothing to offer.

I think Kilmallock will be better prepared as they now know what Rathkeale will bring. The replay is next Sat at 2.30 (i think) in Clarina. ETIN If still a draw then , replay midweek. Final Sat 21st in Bruff at 3.

What happens in event that Rathkeale win through - would the West final replay have to be played first or would the county have to be finished and would the winners of the West replay then be the real county winners.

Given the west losers won the County in 13,14 and 15 losing it would probably be a good sign for Rathkeale in advance of the County final if it comes to that!

Is there any hope of the competition becoming all county? If Rathkeale don't go up then 6 of the 10 strongest teams in the county will be in the west next year IMO (even if the top 2 aren't!).

I doubt that they will get the west final in before the county final. They tossed a coin for winners and losers Rathkeale went out as winners. If there is any more draws it will be mayhem as munster club has to go ahead on the 29th

The West final is behind in fixture preference to remainder of County junior championship and Rathkeale's Senior football relegation playoff!

But does that mean that Rathkeale could win the county, take part in the Munster comp n still not b west champions. Would they lose it all then if Feenagh beat them in west replay?
