Adamstown catch the eye with derby defeat of Rathgarogue-Cushinstown
Wexford People
THERE WAS a lot to like about Adamstown as they overwhelmed Rathgarogue-Cushinstown in Group B of the Joyces Expert Intermediate 'A' hurling championship in O'Kennedy Park on Saturday.
It's early days, but the John Mullane-coached losers were well off the pace. And to compound matters, key attacker Michael O'Rourke looked to have picked up an ankle injury late on. They can ill afford to be without him.

In pictures: Munster release new '20th anniversary' kit for next two seasons
Munster Rugby have released their new home jersey for the next two seasons, and it bears a certain similarity to a previous favourite. The latest Adidas-branded kit celebrates the 20th anniversary of Munster's first European Cup triumph in the 2005/06 campaign. It's an old-school design - featuring a retro-style full collar on the men's jersey - that will provide a nostalgic look back at times gone by for fans of the province.

Denis Leamy - current Munster coach under new boss Clayton McMillan - and member of that 2006 side, had this to say upon first viewing: "Retro.. Old-school, isn't it? It looks very familiar, actually." Former Munster back Barry Murphy has fairly impressed with the design, too. "Woah, that's emotional," he said. "That is a throwback and a half!"
