All-Ireland club hurling championship

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Kilcormacs footballers were beaten by a strong St Olafs outfit at the weekend. They will be fancied to win it out. The Ks now switch their attention to the hurling this week. It will take a huge effort to beat Oulart, they will be like a wounded animal after last years upset. Does anyone know if Stamp and Moore are fit to play? Both were absent against Clara.

A very slim chance at best.

Boden are an excellent Club team and will be very well fancied to reach the Leinster Hurling Final.

Fionn Mount Leinster Rangers have every chance. Dr Cullen Park will be worth a few points to them. Should be two cracking semi finals.

Home advantage will help alright but cant see them winning. Never know though.

Boden and MLR will be a good game, and close. I still fnacy Boden given their experience and the calibre of the players they have. Maguire, Travers, Lambert, Hiney, Keaney, Ryan! Not a club team in country has that sort of inter-county level strength. Not saying it will win it for them but they will be hard beat.

Oulart have some team on paper too. Half are either county or ex-county.

Midleton v sixmilebridge should be a close call the weekend,with clare hurling on such a high you couldn't back against the bridge but lehane is in serious form & it's in cork so all to play for!

Boden werent that impressive in the Dublin final against lucan last Sunday, so it depends on how good MLR are. This is Bodens sixth attempt at the Leinster club championship so they have plenty of experience in this competition, so far without sucess.

Great to see TG4 showing both hurling games. Oulart/KK and Midleton/Sixmilebridge.

If Ballyboden are anything short of tehre very best they will be bet Sunday simple as that.MLR are a fine side, the backbone of a good decent Carlow side. If they beat Boden Id love to see tehm go all the way

But Boden need this, They have come close before and fell short. They are easily Dublins top side but they must now prove themselves in Leinster. And in DR Cullen park it wont be easy

I fancy them if the best hurler on the pitch plays to his peak. If Keaney hurls hes near unstoppable
