Eight teams are left standing and talk is building about who fits the bill as contenders for the TUS Clare SHC.

Four teams have finished up for the season and four more have a fight on their hands to preserve their senior status.

The latest episode of The Water Break drops on a Tuesday to give our panel of experts the chance to dissect the draw of the Canon Hamilton quarter-finalists.

Ross O’Donoghue is joined by former Cratloe manager Conor Earley, ex-Clare forward Barry Nugent and Scariff/Ogonnelloe U21A manager Conor McNamara.

On the clár:

  • The ‘tie of the round’ in the senior quarter-finals.
  • How Éire Óg ‘owed one’ to Inagh/Kilnamona in their last knockout meeting
  • Is group phase form an indicator of championship credentials?

  • Are there more marquee forwards than marquee man markers in Clare?
  • If Corofin had luck they’d be dangerous
  • How to manage an injured superstar
  • The Mills setup up to save their season

  • What’s the evidence that Clonlara are favourites?

  • Is there any advantage in topping your group?
  • How the bad days are more memorable
  • The Bridge unbeaten but in transition
  • When to park to the Clare Cup Curse
  • Class is permanent and Cratloe always find ways to remind us
  • St. Joseph’s Doora Barefield need to stick to the plan
  • One stupid mistake can cost you a championship
  • Crusheen under the radar
