It was all too easy for Kilkenny in the end as they cruised to an 18 point win that covered the handicap of 16 points. The first half was a good tough one with Offaly really getting stuck into the champs but Henry Shefflin set up Martin Comerford for a last minute goal that gave the cats a 6 point lead at the break and afterwards the Offaly challenge died.
It’s another sign that the Leinster provincial system is dead in hurling but unfortunately there’s no one in authority with the balls to scrap Leinster and Munster and bring in an open draw. Even bringing Galway over is only a token gesture.
