My predictions weren't up to much 2 out of 4
Well done Craobh Rua. Well deserved winners. Both teams started slow but second half Craobh Rua came out flying. Used the wind very well and took a lot of excellent scores from distance. They will be hard to beat in the final if they can produce that quality of hurling again.
Second game was brilliant and probably one of the best games I've watched in the Armagh hurling champions for a number of years. It had a bit of everything in it. I think I need to first of all say well done to the referee who let the game flow and allowed for a brilliant game of hurling to develop. I don't think the score line reflected the game.
Middletown started of well and got an early goal. Derrynoose however came straight back at them with a goal and a number of frees and where unlucky to go in a point down at the break.
Derrynoose came out second half and took a lot of quality scores and got another great goal. Fox seemed to be running the show for Derrynoose and involved in every forward attack. Although that was about it from him and Derrynoose. With 6 points up with 20 minutes left and to lose by 10 is quite the turnaround. Credit to Middletown who didn't panic. Ryan Gaffney was brilliant and involved in most of Middletown attacks. I think he might of got 2 goals as well.
Credit to both teams. Was a joy to watch and unfortunately I think Armagh TV missed a trick in streaming this game. Would of been great for the 2 clubs involved, any neutrals and for Armagh hurling in general. Just glad I was able to watch it
I didn't make any games on the Sunday, hurling or football
Any reports on them?
