Offaly 1-12 Wexford 2-16: Wexford will get the chance to gain some modicum of revenge for their heavy senior defeat to Kilkenny last weekend after their under-21 hurlers easily disposed of Offaly at O’Connor Park and set up a final clash with the Cats in a fortnight’s time.

Leinster U21 HC semi-finals Kilkenny v Carlow, Netwatch Cullen Park (J Heffernan, Wexford), 7.30pm.

Daithí Regan and Johnny Pilkington may have soldiered together for years as midfield partners for both Birr and Offaly, but they’ll be in opposition next weekend when Regan’s Shinrone meet Pilkington’s Birr side in the quarter-finals of the Offaly SHC.

FORMER Clare and Galway hurler Fergus Flynn is set to transfer to Waterford club, Ballygunner.
