Sunday's Hurling Championship updates (RTE.ie)

Leinster SHC round 3 · 1400 Galway v Kilkenny, Pearse Stadium · 1430 Laois v Wexford, MW Hire O'Moore Park · 1500 Westmeath v Dublin, TEG Cusack Park.

From the puckout Galway leave Michael Carey unmarked and DJ's son drives it over from way out on the right wing. He's first-pumping and for the first time this afternoon, the Rebels have a bit of momentum. Diarmuid Ryan with a corker and Ryan Taylor makes it three on the bounce. Galway haven't scored in 16. Unless it was for "contributing to a melee", hard to see what it was for unless it was an off-the-ball incident. Galway 1-21 Kilkenny 2-16

Powerful Cats are set to pounce against Galway today and Cork will ... (Sunday World)

There's one big, dangerous predator quietly waiting in the wings which may disturb this status quo - Kilkenny. TJ Reid will be so difficult to stop even if ...

Swap Mark Coleman to wing-back, with Ciarán Joyce centre and keep him at the D. With Garth Brooks headed for a week in Croker, the costs of building and maintaining massive stadia is questionable for a supposedly amateur organisation. Their midfield and wing-forwards are key to this. You sense Kilkenny are at their best since that 2019 semi-final win, and I see the Cats getting one over on Galway before they meet again in the Leinster final. The sideline clash between Shefflin and Brian Cody is intriguing. Just like Liam Cahill meeting Tipp or Davy facing Clare, Henry will do whatever he can to help Galway win.

Hurling weekend previews: Throw-in times, TV details, predictions (The Irish Times)

Sunday · LEINSTER SHC ROUND THREE · Galway v Kilkenny, Pearse Stadium, 2.0 – Live, RTÉ2 · Laois v Wexford, MW Hire O'Moore Park, 2.30 · Westmeath v Dublin, TEG ...

Clare got off to a riotous start when comfortably beating Tipperary in Thurles and thanks to Ed Sheeran, they get to come back a week later. They generally have no inhibitions against Clare but were still lucky to beat them last year. Dublin had an excellent win in Wexford, which opens the door to a top-three finish. One is that the late collapse in Wexford Park was an excellent lesson in putting matches away but it was hardly a lesson Galway needed to be taught again. Laois have been cruelly sabotaged by injuries at the very stage they would have counted on giving sustained matches against the province’s top teams to their best players. The big win over Westmeath was shooting practice and they managed to get 13 different scorers on the board.
