Dripsey 4-12 Ballincollig 3-7

Eire Og 2-19 Kilmichael 0-7
Inniscarra 2-12 Beal Atha 1-12

Mentioned in a previous post how open Muskerry championship is. A few hammerings in the group stage, but once knock-outs come there should be some great games. I didn't see it coming at the start of the year, but Donoughmore seem to be a team on the rise quickly and coming in nicely under the radar. They won the Muskerry league convincingly and with that opening result and Kilmichael & Eire Ogs 2nd team in their group, they could even book a direct semi-final spot (Probably 2 out of 3 between themselves Inniscarra & Aghinagh). Early days but the winner looks it will come from one of those three.

I thought Grenagh would run Aghinagh closer than that to be honest. Kilmichael be seriously disappointed with that result and haven't made an impression in recent years. Maybe they are more of a hurling club at this stage ?
 
If I’m not mistaken they didn’t take part in the Muskerry A league instead played in the B competition. They were always a tough team to beat in both H&F
 
Kilmichael will be disappointed after getting out of their group last year and losing a quarter final to same opposition. Eire Og do look very strong but could be depleted after few more rounds of Senior. Kilmichael won u21 C grade earlier this year so do have a few good young players coming up the ranks
 
Whites Cross beat Nemo in the City championship 2-6 to 11 points for their 1st championship win in 5 years. Bit of a shock? Does this mean Nemo are out?

I wouldn't say it was that big of a shock- I'd imagine Nemo used a few with the intermediate team that would have being playing junior league.
Nemo play Brian Dillons in round 2, with the winner playing Michael's in the quarter final.
 
Majority Championships up and running now who do we think look like early county contenders from each grade? My predictions would be as followed: Avondhu - LC Gaels or Killavullen Carbery - Kilmacabea or St. Mary’s Carrigdhoun - Ballygarvan Duhallow - Castlemagner Imokilly - Lisgoold Muskerry - Aghinagh or Scarra Seandun - Mayfield

Agree with all except maybe st Mary’s. They’ll struggle to get any sort of result come the knockout stages imo
