Declan Hogan's team were outplayed by Laois for much of Saturday's contest.

Offaly are a much changed outfit according to their captain Declan Hogan.

The Faithful County trailed Laois after a sub par performance in Portlaoise in the Tailteann Cup second round heading into the closing stages.

A six point deficit was turned into a draw game and almost a victory in those final minutes.

At 1-8 to 0-5 at half time, Hogan says his team had it all to do:
