Brian Cody and his selectors maintained their policy of trying out new players in this Round 3 game of the Allianz National Hurling League played in front of 8,496 patrons in Nowlan Park on Sunday. Kilkenny seemed well in control for long periods of the game but a Galway goal from a penalty ten minutes from the end followed by another 4 points to Kilkenny's single point reply left a single score between the sides at the end. Kilkenny were ahead 2-11 to 0-8 at the break - a Richie Hogan goal just on half-time giving them a level of comfort. But a five point return in the second half, albeit against a strong wind, will be a bit of a concern for Kilkenny management. Next up is an away game to Dublin next saturday in Parnell Park at 7pm. Tickets available from usual sources at €10. For images of the day, courtesy Martin Rowe and Willie Dempsey, click HERE. For match report, courtesy GAA.ie, click HERE

Two first half goals from Jamie Byrne left the CBS in a commanding position at half time 2-8 to 0-5. Despite playing against the wind in the second half the CBS boys managed to maintain that 2 goal advantage to the end. St Kierans will now play in the All Ireland Quarter Final next weekend.
