Liberty Insurance All Ireland Senior Championship Game Between Waterford And Dublin To Be Streamed Live
The second round of the Liberty Insurance All Ireland Senior Camogie championships take place this weekend with the Waterford verses Dublin game streamed LIVE on Facebook.
Below are the previews of all this weekend’s senior championship games.
Saturday June 22nd
All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship, Group 1
Offaly v Galway, Lusmagh GAA, 5pm (J. Dermody, Westmeath)
Both sides suffered opening day defeats despite promising performances. Offaly lost by just four points away to Limerick whilst Galway lost by the same margin when they hosted Kilkenny in a reversal of their League Final success in March.
With a tough trip away to the Cats to come next Offaly in particular will know that a positive result here is vital to get their Championship campaign back on track.
Wexford v Kilkenny, Bellefield, Enniscorthy, 5pm (R. Kelly, Kildare)
This is Wexford’s opening match in this year’s Championship and after a disappointing League campaign in which they failed to collect any points they will hope for a marked improvement in the coming weeks.
Kilkenny got off to the ideal start last weekend with a win away to Galway in a reversal of their recent League Final meeting to set them up with a great chance to aim for top spot in the group.
All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship, Group 2
Waterford v Dublin, Walsh Park, 4pm (C. Egan, Cork)
The Déise will be delighted with their performance against Tipperary last weekend before the match was abandoned due to a serious injury to a Tipperary player as Waterford lead by four points with only a few minutes remaining.
The Dubs were made to work hard before eventually pulling away from Meath last weekend and will look to build on their performance in what could be a crucial tie for two sides with aspirations of reaching the knockout stages.
Cork v Tipperary, CIT, 5pm (L. Dempsey, Kilkenny)
Cork were emphatic winners on the opening weekend away to Clare racking up a total of 3-19 and face into another tough test of the reigning All-Ireland champions’ credentials against a Tipp side who they defeated in last year’s Semi-Final.
Tipp’s opening match was abandoned due to a serious injury to Nicole Walsh as they trailed Waterford with only a few minutes left on the clock, so they will know that they will need to improve as they face a daunting Cork side.
Meath v Clare, Páirc Tailteann, Navan, 6pm (E. Cassidy, Derry)
Meath put in a promising display last Saturday away to Dublin before the Dubs pulled away in the closing minutes of the match. This performance will give them great hope as they go in search of their first win at Senior Championship level.
Clare will have been disappointed by the margin of their defeat last Saturday, albeit to the reigning All-Ireland champions Cork. Both sides will see this as a must-win tie already if they hope to advance to the knockout stages.
