Offaly’s cause helped significantly by 20th-minute red card for Laois corner back James Kelly
The visitors were the better side on the day by the distance, even though their cause was helped significantly by a 20th minute red card for Laois corner back James Kelly. Laois were not happy with that sending off, though his elbow did appear to go back and Dylan Hyland went down holding his ribs after the home side had won a free out.
Dean Rock: There used to be a ferocity to the Dublin-Meath rivalry. Now we don’t even see competitiveness Offaly were 0-6 to 0-2 ahead when James Kelly was sent off and Laois were struggling to get anything going. Offaly had played very well early on and had four points on the board before Laois got their first point from an Evan O’Carroll free in the eight minute. Ruari McNamee got the next point after Fitzpatrick’s goal but points from Eoin Buggie and a Killian Roche free levelled it up at half time.
