Thurles Sarsfields GAA

Lee McCormack too, like has played at the top level.

So like, there, you know, there's quite a lot of experience in that, in that Saracens team.

But in saying that, I still thought that Golden would possibly turn them over.

So for them to get that win is tremendous.

Easier said than [laughs] done, though.

They've got a very, very good informed Thurles Sarsfields side coming to the stadium to meet them.

Yeah.

That's one to whet the appetite-

Hey, Cian.

How's it going, Ronan?

Thurles Sarsfields three 22, I think.

Bursleigh, one 18.

Jamie Roche on fires.

He got nine points against JK Brackens, got 10 points the last day against Thurles Sarsfields.

And when you throw in the Franey brothers and the Gills and Mark Stoltz, they have a really, really sound team.

And if they were in the semifinal, it would be well deserved and obviously will be in the top three or four to be favorites for the championship and deservedly so.

Yeah, and they'll actually know by the time they take to the field on Sunday afternoon exactly what they need to do because they'll be playing after Moyle Rovers play Grange Muckler on Saturday evening.

So come Sunday afternoon, Kilsheelan will know exactly if they need to win by a margin or just win the game to earn that direct passage to a semifinal, which will give them a couple of weeks off maybe to focus on the hurling because they're going really well in the county intermediate hurling as well, are Kilsheelan Kilcash.

So the other game in group two of the senior football is JK Brackens against Thurles Sarsfields in the Rag on Sunday at 2:00.

This is a winner goes into the quarterfinals affair, and if it's a draw, well, that would suit Thurles Sarsfields to finish second behind Kilsheelan Kilcash.

We know who's going to be playing in the, uh, quarterfinals or preliminary quarterfinals at this point anyway.

Thurles Sarsfields, Moycarkey-Burris, Cashel King Cormac's, and, uh, JK Brackens are all group winners, so they can look forward to, uh, quarterfinals in three weeks time.

As can Bersalee, who finishes group runners-up in Group 2, but they can't get drawn to a preliminary quarterfinal because they're, they're not champions.

So, uh, you have a situation then where Holy Cross Ballycastle, Killadangan, and Nineroad are group runners-up, so they will go into the preliminary quarterfinal draw.

So, uh, we have our four group winners, Moyne-Templetuohy, Killenaule, Laura, and Golden-Kilfeacle.

And group runners-up, Sean Treacy's, St Mary's, Moneygall, and Borrisoleigh.

We'll also have three preliminary quarterfinals there with Silvermines, Thurles Sarsfields, and Errill-Gannacurty involved.

And, uh, the relegation four teams at the minute are Silvermines, Carrick Swan, Templederry, and Ballina.
