Post by kingscounty »

edenderry 2/1 athy 8/15 ; edenderry will hope to spring a surprise here against a fancied young athy side. its not the hardest game edenderry could have got for their first game in leinster for 10 years but theres alot of talk about athy and how good they were in the kildare championship this year. predictions edenderry 0-07 athy 1-11.

didnt see this game but heard some of it on the radio, seems that athy kicked 10 handy wides in the first half and should have been out of sight. credit to edenderry for fighting back coming towards the end, i heard the athy goal was meant to be a very well taken goal to effectively win the contest.

I see the Leinster final will be in Tullamore between Garrycastle and Bridgids, pity POrtlaoise didnt make it. There was a mini faction fight a couple of years ago between them in Tullamore in the stand!
Should be a good game and will keep me out of the shops for another Sunday!!

Radio3 broadcasting the entirety of the minutes silence before the Portlaoise match yesterday was a highlight.
