Capital gains make Tullamore place to be

WE have three hurling games this weekend with Cork, Laois, Dublin, Galway, Tipperary and Clare in championship action.

Capital gains make Tullamore place to be

The first of those is the All-Ireland qualifier clash in Portlaoise of Cork and Laois. The losers here will be finished with hurling for 2011. Laois can start making their holiday plans now.

Now to Tullamore this evening and the Leinster semi-final between Dublin and Galway. There’s a massive expectation this is going to be one of the games of the championship. For physicality, intensity, raw courage, I have no doubt that Tullamore will be the place to be this evening. This is going to be a savage battle, and I’m sure this is where we’re going to see the biggest crowd of the weekend.
