Emmetts face tough task

November 20, 2015

London champions Robert Emmetts will have to be at their best to see off the challenge of Galway counterparts Abbeyknockmoy in Sunday's All-Ireland club IHC quarterfinal.

The Emmettts caused something of a surprise by defeating St Gabriel's in the London SHC final, but they are in the provincial campaign on merit and will be looking to go as far as they can.

Abbeyknockmoy caused something of a surprise in their own county as they were the surprise packets to win the county intermediate hurling championship title.

However, any Galway side will be formidable in this competition, but Emmetts will be hoping to make the most of home advantage at Ruislip.
