– There is a lot at stake in this one, because the winner should advance to the divisional final and claim one of the two promotion spots. Offaly appear to be a team on the rise again after many years spent in hurling’s backwaters but this will be their sternest test of the campaign. Dublin also look rejuvenated this season and All-Ireland club-winning manager Niall Ó Ceallacháin has brought fresh energy and belief to the group.
Rossiter was probably happier with his team’s most recent outing, a retrieved potential thrashing by Kilkenny, than Brian Lohan, whose team were poor when going down to Galway.

The late concessions that cost them a draw in Cork didn’t overshadow how well the newcomers played and for a team with minimal change since breaking through in 2018, that is important for John Kiely.
