Anyone know if Turin Southern Gaels will go ahead? Or are the gaels gone?

S/Gaels fielded against d wood in the last rd,they cant make d semis but they havent pulled out as far as I know, with only 2 games left its finally takin shape,I predict d final 4 will be d wood & brigids (both already in d semis),and Daltons & Delvin to take d last 2 spots.

last round of games next week, getting very interesting

St Brigids vs Turin Kinnegad 01/09/2009 18:30
St Oliver Plunketts vs Fr Daltons Shandonagh 01/09/2009 18:30
Clonkill vs Crookedwood Lakepoint Park 01/09/2009 18:30
Delvin vs Cullion Clonkill 01/09/2009 18:30

If Fr Daltons win they are through. if Turin win they go through. If they lose and Delvin win, Delvin go through. But if Clonkill win they go through.

If Turin n Delvin end up level on points will Turin go through because they beat them or will scoring difference come into it?

previous results between teams are used to decide placings if teams finish level on points, as far as I know.

St Brigids 0-10 2-13 Turin
Clonkill 2-5 4-8 Crookedwood
Delvin 3-14 1-10 Cullion
Plunketts gave walkover to Daltons - a joke at this stage of championship when semi final places were up for grabs

There should be a playoff to decide who gets the last spot because to send either turin or delvin to the what will be essentially a glorified junior championship due to a points difference of 3 is just wrong especially when you consider that the clonkill team turin played would have had players from their senior panel preparing them for the senior championship and the team delvin played had lost those players by the time they played them

The Turin / Delvin issue has a major effect on how the whole competition has turned out. S.Gales & O.Plunketts bout giving walkovers to Fr.Daltons (Fr.Dalton only actually won 3 games). Delvin drew with C.Wood & Bridgets, bet Fr.Daltons & Turin beat Delvin by 1 point. Delvin played a full strength O.Plunkets team which had not lost players to senior, which in fact a rule was made up that senior clubs are meant to play a 1st round senior game before playing in the intermediate championship. Delvin will feel very hard done by, its the way things have just panned out. Actually finishing 4th but not making the semi final & being regelated to division 3 of the hurling ladder.

you could say that Clonkill had full strength team for first few games and beat Cullion and Turin also. Fr Daltons have really got rub of the green. Delvin only have themselves to blame not beating Turin

Turin deserve 4th place more than Delvin,Turin were beat by a strong Clonkill team & gave Bridgets a fair beatin on Tues eve,dont forget they also bet Delvin.Fair enough Delvin drew with The Wood & Bridgets but d fact that they couldnt beat a weakened Plunketts team is d reason they're not in d semis.Someone said in a post that plunketts didnt lose any senior players b4 dey played Delvin-untrue! Plunketts struggled to field that evenin & had lost 7 or 8 players to their senior team.Daltons may have only won 3 games but how many did Delvin win? The reward Turin get for beatin Delvin is a place in d semis,but knowin Delvin they'll probably bring it to the High Court & d c/ship wont be finished till next yr!

Fr Daltons only beat Clonkill as they had lost their senior players by that stage, then they didn't have to play Southern Gaels in the BIG derby game for them and finally got a walkover vs Plunketts. Fair enough Daltons beat Turin. At least Turin and Delvin got to play all their games. The Ballymore boys are a good bunch of lads, and fair play to them for making the semi. But unfortunately they have got there not through their hurling results on the field

deano i couldnt agree more, a semi final fixed for a sunday morning in kinnegad its where you'd expect a junior game to be played, the semis should both be in cusack park

re the delvin/turin/fr daltons issue - fr daltons definately got the rub of the green but the other two didnt help themselves. did turin miss out because of score difference or head to heads? Has there been any appeal by any of the clubs?

could fr daltons take brigids in the semi? they drew earlier in the championship and brigids got hammered the other night by a team that are out!

Daltons could well beat Brigids, would not surprise anyone. Cannot see the Wood losing to Turin (or anyone for that matter)

it an absolute disgrace that bridgets were put out to play their semi final last sunday. they only played their last game on tuesday and it was fixed that night, giving players no time to prepare. bridgets were down players with injury(i no dats not a good reason) and their best player was on holidays giving him no chance of making it home. co. board said it was fixed because of tpass out the following week but what was wrong with the week after as the wood and turin didnt even play yet? lomans and shamrocks drew still they were giving 2 weeks to play it because of duel players. i no its only intermediate hurling but all clubs put in a big effort to win it and it only right co. board give them and duel players a bit of fairness.
