Replying To heavyheart19:  "Arklow and Roundwood are good. Greystones must be too but didnt see them. Blessington were good against Arklow but unlucky"
It's only when the seasoned teams step it up a gear or two in the knockouts that we will get a better idea where each team is at. Of the pretenders to the crown, Greystones, An Tochair and AGB, it's hard to say who might be capable of most improvement. An Tochair showed spirit to fight back against Carnew. AGB have 2 major scalps under their belt and Eire Og, a shade unlucky against Rathnew, routed Tinahely. At this point, I would favour AGB to provide the more experienced sides most problems. I'm like a few posters here, still not convinced about the Roundwood lads. To me, they don't have enough 25 to 32 ish year olds to benefit from experience. Greystones - one swallow never made a summer, so, that leaves the Arklow lads. They have a nice blend of youth and experience.

I'll go ahead and say it, I think AGB are going to do it this year.

Interesting developments in the hurling championships. So, it's Glenealy and Bray into the Semis. Not too sure many would have foreseen Glenealy up there. Is it a draw for the quarters now or 2nd v 3 rd ?? That would put Carnew v Kiltegan and Pats v Greystones. My money is still on Bray Emmets to lift the O'Donoghue Cup. Glenealy are building a side, but I think they aren't there yet. Unless Carnew are pacing themselves, I can't see them repeating last years success. Kiltegan are capable of bursting anybody's bubble on a given day.
