The All-Ireland club hurling champions have been knocked out in Limerick tonight

Na Piarsaigh’s exit has been confirmed with one round of group games still left to play.

THE REIGNING ALL-Ireland club hurling champions Na Piarsaigh have been dumped out of the Limerick SHC before the conclusion of the group stages.

Na Piarsaigh’s exit was confirmed after Ballybrown’s 1-15 to 0-9 win over Doon on Sunday evening.

The result means the reigning Limerick, Munster and All-Ireland champions cannot progress to the quarter-finals, regardless of results in the final round of group games.

Na Piarsaigh only lifted the All-Ireland club title on St. Patrick’s Day, but they shipped costly defeats to Kilmallock and Doon in the opening two rounds of the championship earlier in the summer.

Shane O’Neill’s side recovered to beat Bruree and South Liberties, but those early defeats left too much work to extend their season.

The quarter-final line-up is almost complete, with Ballybrown, Doon, Kilmallock, Adare and Patrickswell already through. One more team will join them after the concluding round of group games.

    Hendrick has been superb. He’s a future Ireland captain, and after this tournament should be moving on to bigger and better things. So should Brady.

    Hendrick has been brilliant. Himself and Brady are our best chance at a move to some of the bigger clubs. Its an aful pity Wes has only burst onto the scene these last few years and he would defo be able to brak into a top 4 club

    He was on the scene for his whole career, but the clubs didn’t want to know. Idiots.

    Don’t know how you can leave out Aaron Ramsey in fairness. And I’m not an Arsenal fan.

    He’s a great dead ball specialist. Doesn’t like to pass the ball though.

    Two of his goals were goalkeepers mistakes. Morata should be ahead of him

    Would prefer a German or Spanish club to go for them. In terms of league quality they are the best.

    Hey Guys!!! I got mine from Cindy. My blank ATM card can withdraw €2,000 daily. I got it from her last week Wednesday and now I have €7,000 for free. The card withdraws money from any ATM machines and there is no name on it, it is not traceable and now i have money for bussiness and enough money for me and my 4 kids. I am really happy i met Cindy because i met two people before her and they took my money not knowing that they were scams. But am happy now. Cindy sent the card through DHL and i got it in two days. Get one from her now. she is giving it out to help people even if it is illegal but it helps a lot and no one ever gets caught. cindy’s email address is (cindytedder767@yahoo.com)

    I’ve never seen Iniesta as bad as he was against Croatia. Selected in that team on reputation as opposed to what he has actually done for them. Fabregas has been better for them.
