Meath SHC final: Kiltale triumph leaves Trim marooned

B75B3nn588Meath Senior Hurling Championship final, 2014:
Kiltale 1-25
Trim 0-12

Kiltale were emphatic winners over Trim in the Ted Murtagh Meath SHC final at Pairc Tailteann on Sunday.

Apart from brief lulls Kiltale dominated throughout and chalked up 26 scores with nine different players contributing to this impressive success.

Both teams arrived at this stage on the back of five straight wins which suggested the likelihood of a close contest. Kiltale’s superiority ensured there was to be no nail-baiting contest.

Jack Regan scored 0-10 (five from play) and deservedly took the man-of-the-match award. Kiltale were never headed and whenever Trim threatened a revival, Brian Gilsenan’s men responded appropriately.

Team captain Peter Durnin also registered five points from play while his industry took to all part of the Trim half.

When Trim got to within six points of the men in maroon shortly after the restart, Kiltale’s response flatlined the contest. The highpoint was Anthony Forde’s 43rd minute goal following a searing run through the opposition rearguard.

Regan chipped in with a trio of points (two from play) while Stephen Donoghue’s second score started the sequence going.

Trim captain James Toher led by example complimenting admirable work rate with 10 pointed frees. Only two other Trim men registered and Luke Moran’s 49th minute effort was one of the scores of the game.

That left the board reading 1-17 to 0-8. In the final quarter Kiltale outscored Trim by 0-8 to 0-2 with team captain Peter Durnin completing their tally with two points deep into stoppage time.

Leading by example team captain Peter Durnin pointed Kiltale in front within 50 seconds of the throw-in. He central to Anthony Forde’s score that doubled his side’s advantage. Mark O’Sullivan was also involved in that productive move.

Playing with the sun at their backs and towards the town goal, Kiltale didn’t let up and were 0-5 to 0-1 ahead after 12 minutes when Stephen Donoghue became their fourth scorer.

All bar one of Trim’s first-half tally came from James Toher frees. Alan Douglas’ 13th minute effort was the sole scoring contribution from another player in red in the first-half and left the board reading 0-5 to 0-2.

When John Andrews’ men registered again, Kiltale were into double figures on the scoring front. By half-time they had seven different scores. The industry that led to the scores was also notable.

The pick of Kiltale’s first-half points were a brace from play from distance in quick succession at teh start of the second quarter from Padraig Kelly. Brian Gilsenan’s men moved seven points clear on two occasions coming up to half-time. Their lead was up to eight in the second minute of stoppage time when Jack Regan landed a free from about 10 metres inside his own 65.

There was still time for Trim to pull one back with Toher landing his fifth point of the half in the last action before the break when Kiltale led by 0-13 to 0-6.

Trim the experinced Joey Toole for the restart and he went close to pointing a sideline cut after Toher sent over another free. The men in red wasted some more chances before Kiltale reasserted themselves and coasted to their fifth title and first since 2012.

Senior Hurling Championship Semi Final

September 28, 2014

Senior Hurling Championship

Semi Final (28/09/2014)

Kiltale 0-14 Kildalkey 0-11

IMG_8103

 Kiltale secured a place in the 2014 Senior Hurling Championship Final with a three point win over Kildalkey in a keenly contested game in Páirc Tailteann. Overall the game won’t live long in the memory of even the most ardent supporter, but the positive result gives Kiltale a chance to win their 5th Senior Hurling Championship.

IMG_8104

The first half was a dour affair, particularly from a Kiltale point of view. Kiltale opened the scoring in the first minute with a Jack Regan free after a foul on Forde. There were some good passing moves from the men in maroon but ultimately they were wasteful in front of goal. Eleven wides and no scores from play tells the tale. The high wide count seemed to suck the energy out of the game however it didn’t stop Kildalkey from opening a commanding 0-07 to 0-02 lead over the course of the following thirty minutes. Kiltale finished the first half scoring with Regan, who added a 65’ in the thirteenth minute, pointing a free in injury time. The players headed to the dressing room with Kildalkey ahead by 0-07 to 0-03.

 

 

IMG_8153

Not for the first time this year, Kiltale came out with a considerably improved performance in the second half tagging on three points in the opening five minutes of the half. Mark O’Sullivan raced onto a loose ball after McCabe blocked a clearance and fired over. This score was followed up by two more frees from Regan which sandwiched a solitary Kildalkey score. It looked like the game was finally going to spark into life but the jitters in front of goal took over again and the next twelve minutes were barren apart from one Kildalkey point in the eleventh minute.

 

The game was badly in need of some scores and Kiltale obliged with six points in the following eight minutes to turn a three point deficit into a three point lead. Regan came to the fore again tagging on three points in a three minute spell to leave the game level at 0-09 each after twenty minutes. Kiltale sprang the Ryan twins and Fearghal McCabe from the bench to add a new impetus to their attack. All three made notable contributions hassling and harrying the Kildalkey defence and creating a number of scores most notably in the twenty fifth minute when the three combined to create a chance for Regan which he duly converted. Ross Ryan and O’Sullivan were also on target as Kiltale now lead by 0-12 to 0-09.

 

IMG_8180

The margin was reduced to a dangerous two point cushion when Kildalkey pointed a free. Cathal McCabe immediately cancelled out this score and Forde added the insurance point early in injury time to take a four point lead. Kildalkey did press for a goal to save the game but a strong tackle by Donoghue denied one opportunity while another was saved by McGann to secure a three point win on a scoreline of Kiltale 0-14 Kildalkey 0-11.

 

Earlier in the day Trim overcame Dunboyne in the first semi final by three points; 0-17 to 1-11. As per the master planner, the final is expected to take place in two weeks time on the 12th of October.

 

Kiltale Team: Shane McGann, Anthony Donnelly, David Donoghue, Ciarán Ennis, Pádraig Kelly, Johnny Donoghue, David Donoghue, Eamonn Ryan, Anthony Forde (0-1), Cathal McCabe (0-1), Stephen Donoghue, James Kelly, Mark O’Sullivan (0-2), Peter Durnin, Jack Regan (0-9; 6 f, 1 65), Ollie Regan, Kevin Ryan, Fearghal McCabe, Shane Lenehan, Ross Ryan (0-1), Ronan Ryan, Iarla Hughes, TJ Lynch, Phili Garvey, Conor Shirren, Stephen Cummins, Chris Reilly, Cathal Sheridan, Willie Harnan, David Schilders, Stephen Whyte, Davey Kane.
