It may border on an act of hurling treason to suggest it, but the Leinster hurling championship could well hold as much of our attention and for longer than its Munster counterpart this year.

Granted, Kilkenny and Galway will still most likely arrive in a Leinster final for a third successive year and the fourth time in the five round-robin years.
