Down’s trip to Tullamore to take on Offaly in a fortnight’s time is shaping up to be a crucial Division 2A league decider after these two counties picked up big wins on Sunday.

Down travelled to Wicklow in high spirits after beating Carlow but their contest in Aughrim failed to catch fire early on, with all bar a handful of the first half scores coming from dead balls.
