West champions Clonoulty Rossmore will be Nenagh's opponents in the final. They got the better of Toomevara in a dour affair in Thurles. Timmy and Conor Hammersley both impressed for the winners but their cause was definitely helped by a nasty looking injury suffered by Toome's centre back Jason Ryan very early on in the game.
This seemed to stun the Greyhounds, and by the 25th minute of the game they had only scored three points, with each of these points bizarrely coming from Mark McCarthy line balls. By the time he had lined up the third of those, he already knew it was going over the bar.
He didn't stand back and admire it, in fact, straight after he cut the ball, he was running back to his position.

Clonoulty took advantage of the absence of Toome's key man, however, and their clever way of working the ball up the field with short-passes and plenty of movement will cause Nenagh problems in the final.
0-19 1-10 the final score, they were much the better team.
In the other last four clash, Cratloe edged last year's intermediate champions Kilmaley by one point on a day when both sides hit 19 wides in Cusack Park. One man who didn't contribute to the day's high wide tally was Cratloe corner forward Rian Considine, his goal turning this game in their favour as they went on to win 1-14 to 0-16.
The sharpest shooter in the south east Pauric Mahony was yet again dead-eyed and he hit the same amount of points as Abbeyside with five coming from open play. The lively Bryan O'Sullivan got in for 1-3 while goal-poacher Conor Power scored his customary goal.
Will 2018 be the year this team finally break their Munster duck?
