I see it's actually on the Wexford People section of the Independent website, and it's Rossiter's weekly update with Dave Devereux there. It's fairly much 'horse's mouth' stuff all right.

Dont have premium so I cant see if Keith has ruled him out of potential Clare game but it doesnt look good"
In the article, Rossiter said they'll know more in a few days regarding the severity of the injury.

Thanks YellowShadeOfPurple. Is there any other team news in the article

"Liam is carrying an injury. We don't know how bad yet, but we should know more in the next couple of days," said the Oulart-The Ballagh clubman.

On the positive side, the experienced Diarmuid O'Keeffe and talented youngster Corey Byrne-Dunbar are in contention for places in the squad while, apart from a few niggles, the rest of the panel are ready and raring to go.

That's a small extract Afinestock96. Great news about Corey, I think he would have played a fair bit in the round robin if not for the untimely injury and O'Keefe back is a huge plus.

Huge pity about Liam. Great to have Dee and Corey back in contention. Interesting Cian Molloy is rarely mentioned in his injury updates. Maybe he has been training but hasnt made the squad for the last few games

Yep. Holding midfielder is where Egan played him. Very good at that role- distribution is excellent.

What is the actual story with Cian Molloy?

When he played him. I thought Egan leaving him out or on the bench was crazy. I love D. O'Keefe, some servant. I hope he stays in next year. He's had to put in serious work in gym/rehab to get back in to shape but back injuries can be serious so hope he's good to go now.

He's also an inspiration for the smaller hurler, he was signing a hurl for my young lad last year and he must not be much over 5'8 or 5'9. Some engine and intelligence.

Yeah it's definitely a strange one with Molloy alright, not a dicky bird about him for a good while now.
Maybe some "in the know" posters could fill in the blanks :-)

If CBD can play at perform at 75% of what he gave in the league, coming off the bench perhaps it would be a great asset to have

He was out on the pitch in Nowlan Park pucking the sliothar with Jack Doran so assume he's still injured

Top player. One of our only 2 current players who have won all stars says it all.

Height is an issue for playing him wingback

If dee was playing a club match this evening its unlikely he would be an option Saturday. How did he play by the way? Id be suprised if a good wexford crowd dont follow the team this weekend after finishing up the round robin on a positive note. I know wexford is full of ifs and buts but wexford would of bet that dublin team Saturday. Kk are a different team in croke park and mullen is different gravy when he plays well. Will we ever be able put our finger on how wexford do so well against kk but yet here we are afer beating them fairly and squarely in minor a few weeks ago they are leinster champions and one step away from a final. A couple of small things and wexford could of being in a leinster final and kk beat dublin out the gate and no fuss back on the bus and home. If that was wexford there would be carflags and bonfires going
A nice match to get back on the horse sunday and if wexford have any aspirations of winning leinster finals and playing with the big boys laois wont be a problem Saturday evening. The players were on the floor after Saturday and the last thing they want to do this weekend is play wexford. Id expect wexford to lay down a marker and really give clare a good rattle. Jippo is a huge loss and we seen during the league goals conceded that wouldn't happen if he was there. Foley is better out wing back but it will be intresting to see what management do. This defeat will also rattle clare and their leaders like conlon and kelly arent the players they were. Wexford have a huge chance of a semi final if they avoid any more injuries

Championship is a big step from League but you are right he would be an addition, but I think only if fully fit. Hearne and Lawlor are playing well in general, but look to have emptied the tank with 20 or 25 to go, especiallyagainst Kilkenny but Galway also. If CBD was fully fit you would have the option of bringing him and Kevin on without weakening the team any. The starting lads could go all out then and empty the tank knowing that we have 2 good lads to come on there. Depending how Dee got on last night he would be another option there, with Kevin and CBD options at half forward either.

Why wouldn't Dee be an option for the bench Saturday if he played a club challenge game on a Tuesday? The lads have in house challenge games.
