If Tara Rocks is consider Kilanerin then in Senior only the Shels and Bunclody are the only teams with no hurling interest left - not counting Junior B. In Intermediate its St Marys Maudlintown and Inter A Bannow. Will that make any difference - In senior it will definitely benefit the Shels and Bunclody but I cannot still see Bunclody getting past Castletown but may make it closer than people would have thought. St Marys never had the two code issue so not much help there and ultimately the Martins will be to strong - although St Marys do have a few nice young footballers, BB should also help them focus. While clubs may do more training in one than the other, they are still playing and at risk of injury far more than the others. By my numbers there are 45 clubs still involved in the Championship 12 Hurling only and 6 in Football, so 60% of the clubs left in are competing are in both Hurling and Football (incl relegation finals). It will be interesting to see the number post the next knockout rounds
Wexford will always be a proud duel county but running the Hurling and Football side by side - is it helping either of them. Ultimately clubs decide what they want but logically it wouldn't but that is just my opinion.

Replying To Viking66: "Adamstown probably favourites for me" They had some impressive results in the group alright but I would still be very surprised if they won it. I don't think they have enough attacking threat, Feeney seems to be doing alot of the scoring for them, I think if a team can keep him relatively quiet it will go a long way to beating them. Hes some asset to have in relation to 2pt frees. Ruari O'Brien is also having a very good year

What is the biggest chance of an upset - I think Kilanerin v CB - but it depends on if they have focused on keeping their hurling status. I don't think the Castletown game will be that wide either
Annes I cannot see losing now.
