Replying To B&G:  "A statement won for Clonguish this evening. Scoreboard miss leading as Dromard got their 3 goals in last 10 minutes.
They are not odds on favourites for nothing. When they land the crown in a few weeks time I hope that their captain does not put the kiss of death on their 5 in a row bid"
One would argue that 3 goals in the last 10 mins shows how fragile Clonguish can be defensively if put under pressure. Whilst their scoring has been hugely impressive, I think that their defence can be got at by a quality team, it's just a matter of stopping them piling on the scores which seems a hard task seeing as they have players who can kick two pointers for fun!

They didn't score any 2 pointers yesterday. Also, 2 if not 3 Dromard goals came when Clonguish took off 2 of their full back line.

In fairness all 3 goals came when match was over as a contest
While they did not get any 2 pointers they did get 6 three pointers which was the difference

Abbey looked like they were going to run away with the second game today. Very soft goal let Colmcille back into it. Very worrying to see Abbey left it till Colm Smyth went down the 3rd time before taking him off with a head injury. Hopefully the lad is OK. Killoe never looked like losing today. Mullinalaghta looked a very old team today. I think Killoe will win it out from here.
