Looking forward to this weekend’s huge hurling championship action

<p>Hurling goes centre stage again this weekend with Round 2 of the Laois hurling championships across the top three grades.</p> <p>And we’re back with our latest Talking Sport Podcast with Damien Carter joining Alan Hartnett to look ahead to all of the action.</p> <p>On paper, the biggest game of the weekend is the meeting of neighbours Borris-Kilcotton and Camross in O’Moore Park on Saturday.</p> <p>With both teams having failed to win their opening game – Camross lost to Rathdowney-Errill and Borris-Kilcotton drew with Abbeyleix – they both need a win to avoid heading into the last round of group games in relegation bother.</p> <p>Having never previously beaten Camross in the championship, Borris-Kilcotton have won the last two meetings in 2020 and 2019. The other game in that group sees favourites Rathdowney-Errill take on Abbeyleix.</p> <p>In the other group, the big game is the meeting of The Harps and Castletown on Friday night.</p> <p>The Harps will have had only five days to recover from their opening round loss to Clough-Ballacolla and a loss here against a Castletown side that beat Rosenallis in the opening round would leave them needing to win their final group game against Rosenallis to stay out of relegation trouble. A Castletown win would ensure their safe passage to the knockout stages.</p> <p>In the other game in that group, champions Clough-Ballacolla will be expected to beat Rosenallis to stay top of the group.</p> <p>The lads also look ahead to all the games in the Premier Intermediate and Intermediate games – and make their predictions.</p>
