IT took Loughgiel half an hour to come to grips with the conditions in yesterday’s rain-lashed Ulster Club SHC final against Ballycran at Casement Park, but once the Shamrocks turned on the style they demolished the Ards men.

ULSTER’S spirited display in the M Donnelly Interprovincial hurling semi-final in Fermoy brought some welcome respite from the miserable weather conditions that enveloped the Cork town on Saturday.

All-Ireland champions and four-in-a-row Walsh Cup chasers Kilkenny were sensationally knocked out of the 2008 Walsh Cup today as they went down to a 2-15 to 1-17 defeat to Antrim.
