Tailteann Cup: Wexford 1-22 Offaly 2-14 

On paper, this was a five-point win for Wexford over a jaded Offaly side that was beaten by 16 points in their previous outing against Cavan. A good result against a team that operates in a higher division, but not sufficient evidence to suggest that the Model County are now Tailteann Cup contenders, particularly given that Offaly were down two key players due to suspension and they played half an hour with 14 men.
