Replying To Wexpurebred:  "I am presuming there's going to be s semi final draw.But if it's anything to go by for the last few years you could predict the draw for the the semi finals.So this is the draw as follows.
If Clare beat wexford they will be playing kilkenny.If wexford beat clare we will be playing limerick.That is the pairings that suit the Gaa. There is no real structure to it. I can almost Garantee you the above is exactly what will happen.A joke !"
This is a huge if but if we beat Clare I don't think it's certain we would play Limerick . If Galway were to beat Cork they can't play Kilkenny so would play Limerick . If Cork and Wexford were to win the Quarter finals there could be a draw but I'm not 100% sure

Replying To WEXILE_AGAIN:  "Lads why do we think Duggan and TK might be out for the next one or there is even going to be a ccc meeting. Was it announced or is it hearsay/wishful thinking again. Obviously we saw the incident and possibly TK limping but there hasn't been anything even mentioned from GAA about ccc meetingd etc. Its wednesday now, the game was Sunday."
Have a feeling nothing Hayes, Duggan and TK will be available for Clare . Don't know if there is any substance to the rumours

Replying To HurlingBuzz:  ""Lee chin is not even a natural striker of the ball"…. the most ridiculous comment I've read in a long time. You've obviously celebrated to much after Sunday and are looking through foggy eyes. Lol"
Have to agree Lee is not a natural striker of the ball but he's a great athleath and a great man to catch a ball and never gives up and if we meet Clare he will be our main man again.

Thats incorrect. If Wex win and Galway win we play KK. Not Limerick. There is no draw either way no matter what the results.

Replying To bloodyban:  "If Kelly is fit then there's zero chance of Wexford getting within 10 of Clare. Wexford just don't have the players. It's as simple as that. Lee Chin isn't a better player than David Fitzgerald. He's not even a natural striker of the ball and I love Lee Chin. There's fellas on that wexford panel that wouldn't get on the best club teams in Clare and Limerick. If Wexford muster every bit of defiance and Chin uses all his power and might then I see Wexford losing by 8. Unless Duggan and Rory Hayes get a ban and TK is out injured....all possible. Then I'd see it being more even ...CLare by 5"
How come Clare only won by 3 last year then?

If both us and Galway get to the semis we will have to play Kilkenny. There won't be a draw

What happens if Wexford and cork progress to semis? Is there not a draw then?

If that happened Wex v Lim & Cork v KK. Its not rocket science.

Are you sure there is no draw if Wexford and Cork win ?

I'd say Wexford and Cork is open draw as repeat provincial finals will be avoided, I couldn't see it going to repeat pairings from the provinces?

Said on newstalk last night no repeat pairings from the same provice if possible for semi finals so if we and cork win we have Limerick and cork have kk.

I thought it was always just no repeat provincial final pairings. I may have changed though I'm not sure

Not sure either. There might be a draw. All that was said in 2018 and 2019 was repeat pairings from the provincial finals are to be avoided. I've not heard anything different since.

Hopefully all 3 will be available if we play Clare. TK is a great man to watch. Hayes and Duggan playing might suit us better than their replacements.

All the pressure is on Wexford to beat Kerry well at the weekend, absolutely no pressure on Kerry to win at all and that in itself is dangerous territory especially down in Tralee.

Surely to god, Wexford won't play like they did against Westmeath.

I think Wexford will win by 8-10 points.

We will worry about that when we get there lads.

Replying To WEX98:  "This game is a token gesture, it's meant to be the "All-Ireland series" and it's not even to be streamed legally (Buff Egan will have it more or less live).

If you think Kerry are any threat, you know nothing about hurling. Respect bla bla bla. If the Kerry footballers were coming to Wexford Park I'd say the same about the Wexford footballers.

Wexford are a serious hurling county, I'd even suggest number 4 after the so called traditional 3."
Match will be streamed now.......they must be monitoring my posts ;-)

Natural striker or unnatural striker. If as you say Chin is not a natural striker does it really matter? He has proved unquestionably on the fields around the country that he is a mighty warrior. Possibly one of wexfords greatest.
I know you will come back and rightly mention Doran or Rackard or Martin Quigley or many others who have played with distinction down the years. I personally don't see anything wrong with his stickwork.
When on his game, which is nearly always, he can win high ball and strike from distance.
They don't always go over the bar but his dedication his strength his solo runs his leadership qualities his overall positional sense
Believe me any of the top teams would grab him if they could.
Natural striker or unnatural striker, Lee Chin is worth his weight in gold.

You only have to look at the difference he made v Kilkenny compared to the previous matches without him.
