LEINSTER SHC SEMI- FINALS

-

DUBLIN are in action for the third successive weekend, something that has more often than not led to a dip p in performanc­e for teams in the round robin system. Their best form against Kilkenny for a more e sustained period would see them through here but that’s not realistic. Cork should find enough improvemen­t.

NOT the homecoming that Eddie Brennan ( inset) had in mind, with the Laois boss originally supposed to take his team to play Kilkenny at this venue during the summer.

For a multitude of reasons, the momentum of 2019 appears all but gone for Laois. Clare don’t look like they’ll last deep into this Championsh­ip, but they’ll get another week out of it.
