St Martin’s v The Fenians

First round

Rice a doubt for Carrickshock 

This coming Sunday at around 5.30pm we should know who the Kilkenny Senior Hurling champions are for 2010. O'Loughlin Gaels from Kilkenny City will play star-studded Carrickshock from south Kilkenny.

O'Loughlin Gaels and Carrickshock will be the envy of every Kilkenny senior club hurler next Sunday when they step out at Nowlan Park to do battle for the Tom Walsh Cup. All 12 teams set out at the start of the championship campaign hoping to reach this very special day in the Kilkenny hurling calendar. Round by round teams have fallen by the wayside.

New Laois manager Brendan Fennelly will be keeping his new county troops waiting a little bit longer, after guiding Carrickshock to their first Kilkenny SHC final since 1951, following a two-point win on Sunday.

The Galway senior hurlers head to Portlaoise on Saturday (7pm) for the Leinster semi-final replay against Offaly, hoping to redeem themselves and give their supporters something to cheer about after a poor team performance last Sunday in Croke Park.
