Good Draw, Home advantage is a big deal in these games.

Replying To Solo_Run:  "Wexford it is - hardest of the 3 options unfortunately. Though home advatage helps.

Plus they may seek revenge for the 'soft' penalty we got to beat them in Carrick a few years ago - but then again, different teams, didn't do us any good and we went back to the drawing board last year, and they have gone on better things - a Divsion 2 team now to their credit - glad to see it.

(Noticed Sligo get London, to go with Tipp (home) and Waterford - getting every chance to get back on their feet - plus if you include our good selves in the Championship - they have drawn the bottom 4 teams in the league so far, incredible !! Losing 2 - to us and Tipp. Pressure to win that one, and could be tricky enough in London)"
Its amazing how lucky some teams can be! We have had tough draws so far, a Limerick team that's had our number the last 3 times we played them in the last 14 months, although being at home helped us. Then Fermanagh away, who got their revenge for our win up there in the League. Its over 10 years since we had Fermanagh down in Wexford, although they won comfortably that day too.....And now Carrick, which hasnt been a happy hunting ground, against a resurgent Leitrim.

Super performance at the weekend. Wexford will be another step up but this is the nature of the competition - the hills get steeper and we'll have to work harder to scale them. Its a bonus to have the 2 week break to assess where the wounded are at but the lads and management are surely giving us a season to be proud of.

The home venue will/ should be worth a couple of points……
