This weekend Round 5 of the Kehoe Cup takes centre stage with two games down for decision.
| Rank | Team | P | W | D | L | F | A | PTS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kildare | 3 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 69 | 40 | 6 |
| 2 | Carlow | 4 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 105 | 82 | 6 |
| 3 | Meath | 3 | 2 | 0 | 1 | 68 | 61 | 4 |
| 4 | Down | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 57 | 84 | 0 |
| 5 | Wicklow | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 39 | 71 | 0 |
| Rank | Team | P | W | D | L | F | A | PTS |
To say it the permutations aren’t straightforward would be putting it mildly. As we approach the Final round Kildare remain in the driving seat, with 3 wins from 3. However, should their hosts Meath claim a victory tomorrow it brings into play a number of varying scenarios.
As it stands a draw or a victory for Kildare is enough to see them claim the title. A win for Meath can lead to the following;
- If Kildare win or draw – Kildare Win Kehoe Cup.
- If Meath win by less than 6 points – Kildare Win Kehoe Cup.
- If Meath win by 6 points – Scores ‘For’ Decides the winner.
- If Meath win by 7 to 16 points – Carlow Win Kehoe Cup.
- If Meath win by more that 16 points – Meath Win Kehoe Cup.
- If Score difference is the same for 3 counties – Scores For Decides.
