Here is how the rest of the weekend's hurling finished

Meath cemented their status as clear favourites for the Christy Ring Cup on Saturday afternoon when they crushed 2018 champions Kildare in Newbridge on Saturday, with 0-16 from Jack Regan and two goals from Eamonn Ó’Donnacadh providing the backbone to their 2-27 to 1-13 victory.

Kildare have now been eliminated from contention after Roscommon wrapped up the other semi-final spot in the group with a 1-25 to 2-12 victory over London in Ruislip. Cormac Thornton and Lee Murphy were both sent off by the 50th minute, at which point Roscommon led by just two, 0-15 to 0-10, but Padraig Kelly ran riot in the final quarter to bring his total to 0-8 from play, while Conor Mulry fired in a late goal to wrap up the win.
