Down Club Hurling & Football

[In the Onion Bag]

just back from the matches in Parc Esler,congrats to Ballmartin and Kilcoo,hard luck to Ardglass and Burren.Kilcoo were a little lucky not to concede a second penalty in the first half.The match was surely great entertainment for the many neutrals in the big crowd.Any views on th elittle flare-up near the side-line in the second half?

Thanks for this.  Two things:

1. What was the score in the Int semi and
3. Give us your opnion on the little flare-up near the side-line in the second half?  Thanks

Just home from the game. Kilcoo were probably worth their 2 point win. Paul Devlin and Conor Laverty were the difference between the sides, Burren really only had James McGovern up front. Declan Rooney had a good game at midfield.

Burren missed a penalty early in the first half, and had another goal chance later in the half. Kilcoo also missed two goal chances of their own in the first half. Second half was more even, with Kilcoo managing to stay a few points in front throughout.

Burren 0-10
Kilcoo 0-12

Can anyone confirmed the result of Teconnaught v Dromara's game?

Yes Teconnaught won fairly easily.  They had a man sent off in the first half but it did not make much difference.

Ballymartin won easily enough, something like 1-14 to 2-05.  Ardglass scored a goal with the last kick.  Ballymartin scored a goal from a free from outside the 45 mid way through the 2nd half which more or less finished the game.

Handbags stuff really at the end of the senior game, don't think anyone got hit other that with the shoulder.

Outstanding Fixtures: Ardglass v Drumgath, St Pauls v Glenn

* Aghaderg didnt field against Drumgath on Friday night so Drumgath got the two points.

Drumgath did not get the points for this game as it was not supposed to be played for a couple of weeks but Aghaderg agreed to play it but then had to put it off again because of some internal problem with their football team.So the table should look as it was before the two points were put on to Drumgath total

[Mid Down Gael]

Another great win for the magpies last night. Wonderful team performance where our workrate was a joy to behold. Stevie Kane, Nial Morgan, Conor laverty and the McEvoys where outstanding while Anthony Devlins experience led us over the line. Paul Devlin and Barry Kane showed great courage and leadership for ones so young also. An all east Down final now, which promises to be a great day for our club being involved in minor and senior finals. With the ladies intermediate champions, seconds about to be crowned league winners, the thirds in simi final and under 16s in east down final its not a bad year to date. 

[Mid Down Gael]

Thats inpressive fron Kilcoo, in the Senior final, the minor final and the east Down u16 as well.. if my memory is correct are they U21 champs as well?

No think Liatrom are!

Think you meant to say ST Marys. An amalgumation off Liatroim and Dromara.

SHC Semi Final: Ballygalget 4-11 1-15 Portaferry. Poor enough game but a lovely day for hurling.

Twas poor enough fare on what was a good day for hurling but we'll not care too much about that.

Very stop start game and TBH I know Deccy might be shipping a  bit of flack for his refereeing, everything he blew were fouls barring maybe two softish ones, so if lads are going to foul he has to blow, not his fault. We were very nervous at the start, and only Eoin's free's kept us in the game where we'd hurled feck all until magic caught a ball in open play and made the dash straight down the middle to find Dingy who put it away well. up until that Portaferry were the only ones doing anything. We needed to kick on after the break, but we didn't, with Portaferry drawing level with three unanswered points. Once the bear was brought onto centre back, wee Liam put into full back and Duke out to left half, all worked well, with Duke stopping BA and bear curtailing Dule particularly in the air. We scored a bit of a scrappy goal to open up our lead again, quickly followed with another well taken goal from Eoin who had finally got a decent enough ball to get away from his man, Can't remember who scored the 4th goal but it cluinched the deal but worryingly we dropped off in performance and allowed the Ports a few consilation scores and goal to bring it down to 5 points again. We held on for the win but must improve in our consistency if we are to beat Ballycran in two weeks time.

Anyone got this weeks fixtures yet?
