Vaunted Lineup Confirmed For Laois Senior Hurling Semi-Finals

Monday, 11 October 2021 13:37

The remaining participants have won 77 of the previous 126 championships.

There's an incredible 77 county titles between the last four teams standing in the Laois Senior Hurling Championship. 

Camross and Rathdowney-Errill completed the line-up following victories over Casltetown and Rosenallis over the weekend. 

It'll be Borris/Kilcotton v Camross and Clough/Ballacolla v Rathdowney/Errill in two weeks time.

Borris-in-Ossory/Kilcotton will be hoping it is third time lucky, having been defeated in the previous two county finals. They've managed to avoid both their conquerors in the final four as they play 2018 winners and Laois' most decorated hurling outfit, Camross. 

League champions Rathdowney/Errill were probably worth more than the bare result against Rosenallis who tacked on 1-1 in a late surge in O'Moore park but will be under no illusions about the task at hand against defending champions Clough Ballacolla. 

These two have served up a couple of ding-dong contests in previous years and the beaten finalists of just a couple of months ago will surely have revenge on their minds. 

Clough/Ballacolla won't want to be known as the shortest reigining champions either even if those circumstances are entirely out of their control.

Either way it is arguably the best lineup possible for the neutral hurling fan and it's going to be a fantastic weekend in a fortnight's time. 

Quarter-Final Results:

  • Castletown 0-12 -1-24 Camross GAA Club
  • Rathdowney Errill 2-14 - 1-16 Rosenallis

Semi-Final Draw:

  • Borris-in-Ossory/Kilcotton v Camross
  • Clough/Ballacolla v Rathdowney/Errill
