Despite adding 0-11 to his overall tally last weekend, Ronan Crowley's advantage at the summit of the Allianz Hurling League scoring charts has been cut.
The Lancashire star is five clear on 2-38 after three rounds with a closely bunched chasing pack breathing down his neck. Laois captain Ross King is next best following his 0-16 haul in the win over Antrim.

Forde's brace for Tipperary against Wexford sees him lead the way in the goalscoring charts along with Danny Toner (Down) and Ian Dwyer (Warwickshire).
