After their below standard performance against Cork, Clare are lucky enough to be at home against Wexford today as they are vulnerable at the moment. Their season could be over before it starts. The home crowd should pull them through.
Tipp v Galway is a game of underachievers and Tipp may have enough and Galway may be running out of steam having played the matches against KK.
KK V Dublin should be a case of Dublins youth policy finally getting the better of Codys men but KK have shuffled the pack and are playing way better than this time last year. I fancy KK to win. Liam Rushe isn't fully fit it seems. Dublin are scoring goals or enough of them anyway to win the All Ireland. But then the same was said of Clare before an 18 year old kid came along in 2013.

Tipperary came from six points down to defeat Galway by nine in a quite remarkable All-Ireland SHC qualifier at Semple Stadium on a scoreline of 3-25 to 4-13.
With 51 minutes on the watch, the hosts trailed by 1-15 to 4-12 in front of 18,467 spectators in Thurles.
But a sensational final 20 minutes saw Eamon O’Shea’s rejuvenated charges outscore Galway by 2-10 to 0-1.
Seamus Callanan scored bagged two goals during that sensational scoring blitz and finished the game with 3-8 to his name.
John ‘Bubbles’ O’Dwyer added six points and Noel McGrath chipped in with five points from play.
McGrath was quite superb in the second half, providing inspiration and leadership when it was needed most, but the switching of James Barry and Padraic Maher was also a crucial move.
Galway full-forward Johnny Glynn wreaked havoc on Maher and scored two second half goals to put the Westerners in the driving seat.
But Barry dropped from centre back, where he had started, to curtail the massive figure of Glynn.
Barry had lined out in the number six position from the throw-in after Conor O’Mahony was ruled out with a back injury.
In the reshuffle, Paddy Stapleton came into the team at right corner back, with Cathal Barrett moving to the left wing.
To accommodate Barrett’s move, captain Brendan Maher swapped flanks, lining out at right half back from the start.
At half-time, the sides were level in a game of huge significance.
Galway arrived on the back of a Leinster SHC semi-final replay defeat to Kilkenny a week ago.
And Tipp received a barrage of local criticism after losing to Limerick in the Munster semi final on 1 June.
When the dust settled, Tipp had secured a first championship victory since the Munster final of 2012 – and O’Shea could finally taste a win as Tipp boss.
Make no mistake, the Kilruane MacDonaghs man, coach to the 2010 All-Ireland winning team, was under pressure but he had vowed during the week that his players would do themselves justice.
And that they did with a stunning final flurry to snatch a win that could yet kickstart a run to Croke Park in September.
But it was Galway who got off to a dream start when Jason Flynn took a pass from that man Glynn to net in the fourth minute.
Tipp responded in kind through Callanan with less than 13 minutes on the watch and the sides were level at 1-7 and 1-8 apiece approaching half-time.
Another long Iarla Tannian delivery led to Galway’s second goal, as was the case with the first, as David Burke flicked to the net in the 31st minute.
Tipp were 2-8 to 1-9 down at that point but after O’Dwyer and Padraig Brehony traded scores, a brace of Callanan points, including a free, tied the scores a 1-12 to 2-9 at half-time.
Glynn, who had provided five assists by the 33rd minute, was a man possessed in the second half, netting in the 39th minute and again six minutes later to put Galway in the driving seat.
But Tipp were not done yet and that late revival will be talked about for a long time to come, with Galway boss Anthony Cunningham potentially facing the exit door after three years in charge.

Clare and Wexford played out a thrilling draw in their round 1 hurling qualifier at Cusack Park in Ennis with extra time failing to separate the sides as the game finished 2-25 each.
Conor McGrath looked to have won it for the home side before Paul Morris levelled the scores with the last puck of the game.
All-Ireland champions Clare were outclassed for long periods of the game with Wexford leading 2-09 to 0-10 at half time.
Goals from Conor McDonald and Liam Óg McGovern gave Wexford the advantage against Clare who had Podge Collins sent off on the stroke of half-time.
Wexford were awarded a penalty with three minutes of normal time remaining which Morris pointed to give the visitors a four-point lead.
But there was still time for drama as Clare were given a penalty of their own after Conor McGrath was hauled down by Keith Rossiter.
Tony Kelly's penalty was blocked but Seadhna Morey rifled home the rebound before Conor Ryan levelled the game with a late point to send the game to extra time.
McGrath scored Clare's second goal in extra time and thought he had won it before man of the match Morris had the final say.
The game had a lively start with Wexford storming into an early lead with a goal from full-forward McDonald giving putting them 1-03 to 0-01 up after nine minutes.
McGovern grabbed their second as he ran clear of Cian Dillon before dispatching the ball to the net to put Wexford 2-07 to 0-03 ahead after just 16 minutes.
Colin Ryan's frees kept Clare in touch as the All Ireland champions went in five points down at half-time.
The home side rallied in the second half but were aided by Wexford's wayward shooting.
The Model County hit several poor wides while Patrick Kelly made a brilliant save to deny McGovern his second goal after 64 minutes.
Wexford were awarded their penalty shortly afterwards and Morris took the safe option of a point before Morey and Ryan kept Clare in it. Lee Chin gave Wexford the lead in extra time before McGrath's well-taken goal.
Cathal McInerney and Tony Kelly both scored for Clare before McGrath's point looked to have won it.
But Morris, who finished with a personal tally of ten points, struck the last puck of the game between the uprights to give Wexford a well deserved second chance.
Clare: P Kelly; C Dillon (0-01), D McInerney, J Browne; B Bugler, Conor Ryan (0-01), P O'Connor; P Donnellan, C Galvin; J Conlon, T Kelly (0-04), C McInerney (0-02); P Collins, C McGrath (1-05), Colin Ryan (0-12, 0-10 frees).

The Leinster 221 hurling final next wed night is between Wexford and Dublin. Wezford have beaten KK in the last two years at u21. They went 9 point up early on and missed a few chances at the end of normal time to put in beyond Clare. Both sides simply refused to leave this wonderful hurling championship. Clare are like Kerry in 2009 in the Sligo game in Tralee. Only 3 or 4 playing well but refusing to lose. Clare are playing on wed too in the munster u21 championship final. They should put the relay back to the following week in deference to the effort of both sides today.

tipps win on sat night could be the turning point off this championship, coming from 6 down to win by 9. they have the hurling and this win should give them the confidence to drive on, handy draw now against offaly and then probably against dublin. galway just gave up entering home still no leaders on the team.

I am an admirer of Davy and all he has done for hurling. He has his clubmate Seadhna Morey to thank for getting a 2nd bite of the cherry. His alertness in following up to the penalty was the difference in the end.
Davy should now concentrate on the business in hand and forget the sideshows. He would do well to remember some of the lessons in that regard which his illustrious predecessor failed to heed and what that cost Clare in the past.
Tipp look to have woken up. They displayed great character and belief to overcome that lead.
Kilkenny look like they're only warming up although I wouldn't write off Dublin just yet.
I'm looking forward to next Sunday already when we'll know a little more of what our Munster neighbours are made of.

Watched the Clare Wexford game - just wanted to see a good game. Clare were very cynical so I ended up going for Wexford. Clare were holding hurlies, blocking hands and deserved to have 2 men sent off. Michael Duignan was very critical of the referee for blowing up when there didn’t appear to be an obvious foul. I think the ref was right. Wexford will have to get a “killer instinct” if they are to progress.

what a week for Wexford... won Leinster u21 and now knocking Clare out of the championship. Another hurling county returning to the top table or near it anyway. Tipp are motoring again. Hard to call Limerick v Clare. Limerick are a lot better than given credit for and Clare were poor v Cork. The Bog prize is avoiding KK till the final.

Yes, great to see Wexford back. They'll need to be 100% more ruthless in taking scores against Waterford or it could be curtains for them. Plus they've had 2 90 minutes matches over the 2 past weekends which may not help their cause.
Cork have done well to rebuild after last year. JBM is some operator. Limerick are not gone yet and may have a big say in the championship yet.

Clare will face Cork in the Munster U21 Hurling Final in a fortnight's time after they defeated Tipperary in a thrilling game at Cusack Park on Wednesday evening.
Cork defeated Waterford earlier on Wednesday
The sides finished level at full-time - 3-13 to 1-19 - but Clare were by a distance the better side in the extra period, and goals from Aaron Cunningham and Shane O'Donnell wrapped up victory for them.
Tipperary's chances had been reduced when John Meagher was sent off at the end of normal time, and Clare made the numerical advantage count in the end.
Clare led 2-6 to 0-10 at the break in normal time, having scored their two goals in the opening seven minutes.
Aaron Cunningham struck the first, belting home a cracker after five minutes, and that strike was followed two minutes later by a goal from Peter Duggan, who found the net after some dithering from the Tipp defence.
That left Clare 2-2 to 0-2 ahead, but Tipperary responded well, and with Bill Maher, Jason Forde and Séamus Kennedy all on target, Tipperary were well in touch at the break.
The second half was a thrilling affair. Tipperary took the lead through a Tadhg Gallagher goal on 38 minutes to make it 1-13 to 2-8, but Clare got back into the game with 15 minutes to go when David Reidy pounced for a goal after Peter Duggan's effort was blocked on the line.
The sides traded scores in a thrilling conclusion and finished level at the end of normal time, but Tipperary's extra-time chances were dealt a blow when Meagher saw red just before the final whistle.
Clare took full advantage of their numerical advantage in the additional 20 minutes, and the goals wrapped up the victory for them.

The two games with Clare plus extra time plus the u21 game in the middle is bound to leave Wexford tired but adrenalin and winning are a powerful combination. Waterford were very good the first day v Cork but poor the second day and were lucky to get over Laois. Very hard to call it.

Don't lose any sleep over it I think there are a lot of close enough games in the hurling this year because a lot of the teams are very even. I haven't seen all that much of the hurling but it really looks likes a who-ever-turns-up-on-the-day type championship with their being no outstanding team but a lot of decentish teams.

Listened to an excellent commentary on the wireless with Michael Duignan. Wexford seemed a good bit better but conceded frees and Waterford got two quick goals to bring them back into it.
Down to 6 now.
KK, Cork, Tipp, Limerick, Dublin, Wexford
After all the hurling so far we have seen just Galway, Waterford and Clare exit

Wexford are the only surprise packet in that 6. It'll be interesting to see how they fare out against Limerick.
You'd have to fancy Tipp at home. Which probably means that'll be the next shock!!!

Interesting to see as a neutral observer how a team develops and the different stages there are. Dublin hurling has been improving for years now. Over the last 6 years Anthony Daly managed them to what no previous manager could, the league, beating probably the best team ever and a Leinster title. It now seems like a new voice in the dressing is needed to bring them further. There is only 1 other step but they mignt have to “lose one to win one”. Daly can be proud of his achievements and if he does leave he will certainly be in demand by other counties. Galway and Waterford might be keeping an eye on what happens.

Great performance by Limerick yesterday. Wexford clearly had run out of steam but Limericks performance was nonetheless of very high quality...great hunger all over the field. I'd be surprised though if Shane Dowlings hand isn't broken. If it is, that's a huge blow to Limerick facing into the Kilkenny Semi-Final...

wexford just could not live with limerick yesterday, totally leaden in thought and feet. ridiculous having to play 4 weekends in a row and u21 final as well. what was going on in month of may that rounds could be played earlier. limerick v kilkenny now and chance for limerick to redeem themselves for final loss a few years ago, and hopefully with no silly comments in the papers leading up to match. tipp moving nicely and their battle with cork should be a cracker. dublin always looked to me to be big athletes who when played hurling at a high intensity where hard to beat, yesterday that was lacking. daly has taken this team as far as he can , but fair play to him he has a couple of titles to their credit.

No way that Clare would have lost by that margin to Limerick yesterday. Limerick have excellent backs and lots of leaders. KK wont find it easy. Wexford left it all on the pitch against Clare and Waterford. They will look back on 2014 as progress and their u21s could still win the All Ireland though Clare look the team to beat.
"Same voice syndrome" seems to be at play with Daly and Dublin. Daly will surely walk away now. Tipp and Cork in an All Ireland semi final is mouth watering. The addition of the dual players plus young Cadogan means that Cork are a lot better than in 2013.
I'm told that someone has got into Seamus Callanans head in 2014... he has been a revelation. A gifted hurler who turned his ar.. to it too often but is motoring now. Maybe tis Kieran McGeeneys influence !

Under 21 Munster final
Clare 1-28 Cork 1-13 They travelled in their thousands, they travelled to pay homage to a crop of hurlers who had provided the most memorable of summers in 2013, and who last night guaranteed 2014 would not be a barren one either.
The Clare supporters, who were very much in the majority in a crowd of 12,995, rose to acclaim their U21 hurlers on the half-time whistle; this contest all but done and dusted with the home outfit ahead by 1-15 to 0-5.
Little over half an hour later they poured onto the turf of Cusack Park, the county’s young heroes carried aloft as they celebrated a third consecutive Munster title.
Heading out the gates close to 10pm, Shane O’Donnell and Tony Kelly were still signing autographs in front of the main stand. You’d hardly think it given the riches which befell the county in 2013, but this was a victory Clare hurling desperately craved.
It has been a testing summer for the Banner, their defence of the Liam MacCarthy Cup ending without a single championship win. Five days on from the senior exit it was left to the U21s to pick up the pieces, a task they just about managed with an extra-time victory over Tipperary.
Last night though, was a return to normality — Shane O’Donnell raising the green flag on 21 minutes, Tony Kelly orchestrating the attacking strings to devastating effect and Colm Galvin doing likewise at midfield. If there was one overriding message emanating from Cusack Park it was that this talented crop of young hurlers haven’t gone away. Their graph continues to soar.
“To captain a Clare side is a fantastic honour, but to captain a three-in-a-row-winning one is something special,” said Tony Kelly. “I would like to pay tribute particularly to the management of Donal Moloney and Gerry O’Connor that put us on the road back in 2010.”
That was the summer this particular group announced themselves on hurling’s stage, the Munster minor title annexed, the All-Ireland crown just slipping through their fingers. Last night then was their fifth provincial crown on the hop (minor in 2010 and 2011, U21 2012-14). Indeed, the victory marked the county’s fourth U21 title in six seasons. For Cork, their wait for U21 silverware will extend to an eighth year.
And from early on in this encounter it was evident said barren spell was set to continue. Shane O’Donnell’s goal on 21 minutes, a most delightful flick after being put through by David Reidy, crowned a glorious opening period for the home side in which they established a 1-9 to 0-1 advantage. Seven wides were also tallied during this spell such was Clare’s dominance, while Patrick Collins was called into action to deny a rasping Aaron Cunningham effort on five minutes.
Cork again operated a sweeper system with corner-forward Robert O’Shea redeployed to midfield. It simply didn’t work. Colm Galvin and Eoin Enright, though outnumbered, ruled with an iron fist and the supply of ball trickling through to Alan Cadogan and Anthony Spillane was in no way to a forward’s liking. Encapsulating the pair’s frustrating evening was their combined tally of 1-0, Spillane kicking to the net on 40 minutes.
In any event, Clare had the contest wrapped up by the time Fergal Horgan sounded the interval whistle.
Half-forward Bobby Duggan was the toast of the opening act, splitting the posts on eight occasions. Indeed, his second point of the final whistle summed up perfectly the evening’s fare. A probing delivery was launched in Alan Cadogan’s direction, it was Seadna Morey, however, who emerged with possession. Cadogan swung the hurley in frustration while Clare moved the ball effortlessly up the field where Duggan scored from 65 metres.
Cork registered two points from open play in the first half, just two of their staring front six (Michael Collins and O’Shea) on the mark.
Matters didn’t improve for the Rebels at the turn of ends, Spillane’s goal on 40 minutes doing little to stem the saffron and blue tide. David Reidy’s point on 36 minutes ensured each of Clare’s starting forwards were on the board and they outscored Cork by 0-7 to 0-4 in the final quarter — substitutes Cathal O’Connell and Shane Gleeson getting in on the act.
Scorers for Clare: B Duggan (0-10, 0-5 frees, ’0-1 65); A Cunningham (0-4); G Galvin, T Kelly (0-1 ’65), D Reidy (0-3 each); S O’Donnell (1-0); S Gleeson, P Duggan (0-2 each); C O’Connel (0-1).

Limerick v KK in the semi final.
I think that both defences could dominate and it could be low scoring and tight. Whoever gets goal to win and KK have more in that dept. I would normally go in to this but the thought of paying 40e to sit through teenage disco music is a serious turn off.
