Brigid's power away from Mark's
06 May 2011 | hill16.ie

ON THE MOVE: Declan Lally takes on the St Mark's defence in Friday night's Evening Herald Dublin SFC clash.
ST BRIGID'S 2-14 ST MARK'S 1-4

St Brigid's made the most of the 'second chance saloon' when they powered away from St Mark's in the second half of this Evening Herald Dublin SFC second round losers section encounter at O'Toole Park on Friday night.

Mark's closed out the opening half on top having come back from 1-6 to 0-2 in arrears after 16 minutes to trail by just two points at the break, 1-6 to 1-4.

However, they failed to score against the wind in the second half as the Rusell Park side upped the standard of their display to run out 13-point victors.

Declan Lally kicked the first of his three second half points soon after the restart but from the 42nd minute on Brigid's moved up a gear with points from Mark Cahill (free) and Lally before Paddy Andrews finished to the net to make it 2-11 to 1-4 with ten mintues remaining.

In the opening half Brigid's with Philly Ryan to the fore started with intent and a 12th minute goal from Ken Darcy following an interception off a Mark's free by Ryan pushed them 1-3 to 0-1 clear. It was a lead they had extended to seven points, 1-6 to 0-2, just past the midpoint of the opening half.

But the Tallaght side rallied strongly in the concluding ten minutes of the opening half. John Kelly and the stylish Barry Kennedy kicked points either side of Barry Redmond's 22nd minute goal - Mark's most impressive move of the night.

Kennedy initiated the move back in his own half before Kelly played Redmond through the heart of the Brigid's defence and the wing-forward gave Shane Supple no chance when placing his shot to the corner of the net.

SCORERS - St Brigid's: P Andrews 1-3, D Lally, P Ryan 0-3 each, K Darcy 1-0, M Cahill 0-2 (0-2f), B Cahill, L McCarthy (0-1f), D O'Connor 0-1 each. St Mark's: B Redmond 1-0, J Kelly, B Kennedy 0-2 each.

Crokes rally in second half to see off Mary's
06 May 2011 | hill16.ie

KILMACUD CROKES 2-13 ST MAUR'S 1-9

A strong second half saw reigning champions, Kilmacud Crokes, run out seven point victors over St Mary's of Saggart in Thursday night's Evening Herald Dublin SFC first round clash at Parnell Park.
Mary's led 1-5 to 1-4 at the break but the introduction of Brian Kavanagh and a significant increase in Crokes' work-rate saw them soon establish dominance in this keenly contested duel.
Pat Burke's 51st minute goal when he finished emphatically to the net following an unselfish pass from Declan Kelleher effectively settled the outcome when pushing his side 2-11 to 1-7 clear.
The opening half was a different story. The night began brightly for Crokes when Pat Burke's 45-metre free travelled all the way to the Saggart net.
However, a minute later Dublin panellist Ross O'Carroll was forced off as his injury nightmare which has plagued him for over a year continues.
Rory O'Carroll was included among the Crokes' subs following his return from Orleans but did not see any game time.
A 15th minute goal from 2010 Dublin U21, Eoin Murray, really lifted Mary's spirits when he beat Paul Griffin in the air to bat a centre from Blaine Kelly to the net and through the endeavour of Kelly, Alan Marshall and accuracy of David Marshall the Saggart men were in front by the interval – 1-5 to 1-4.

SCORERS - Kilmacud Crokes: P Burke 2-3 (1-0f), D Kelleher, R Cosgrove (0-3f), B Kavanagh (0-1f) 0-3 each, A Morrissey 0-1. St Mary's: D Marshall 0-6 (0-4f), E Murray 1-1 (0-1f), B Kelly 0-2.

Maur's storm back to reach last 16
05 May 2011 | hill16.ie

ST MAUR'S 1-12 NA FIANNA 0-14

A storming second half saw the men from Rush secure their berth in the last 16 of the Evening Herald Dublin SFC at Drumnigh on Thursday night.
Maur's had it all to do at half-time as they trailed by eight points, 0-11 to 0-3, but had the wind at their backs for the second period. They did not take long to reel in their opponents as 11 minutes after the restart the sides were on level terms.
Chris Moore was sprung from the bench for Maur's five minutes into the second half and he immediately set about influencing the balance of power in the game. Moore scored two points as well as playing the lead role for the only goal of the night for Conor Maguire. Mark McGrath maintained his impressive form – following up on his four point haul against Fingallians by tagging on two against Na Fianna.
The opening half belonged to Na Fianna with the full-forward line of David Quinn, Adam Caffrey and Ciarán Duignan impressing.

SCORERS - St Maur's: C Carthy 0-7 (0-3f), C Maguire 1-0, M McGrath, C Moore 0-2 each, R Maguire 0-1. Na Fianna: P Quinn 0-4 (0-2f), A Caffrey (0-1f), C Duignan (0-2 '45s') 0-3 each, K O'Connor, D Quinn (0-1f) 0-2 each.

The Belfield students secured their spot in Round 4 of the Evening Herald Dublin SFC when they edged out Fingal Ravens at Páirc Naomh Uinsionn on Tuesday night.

However, UCD kicked on with Donie Kingston converting two frees and Tommy Warburton driving forward to slot his second point.

Fingal Ravens did goal with the last play of the night when Martin Flanagan batted a Finnegan '45' to the net – it was a case of too little, too late.

First half goals from Conor McGuire and Carthy had Maur's leading 2-5 to 0-2 after only 15 minutes.

However, Fingallians rallied and when Paul Flynn goaled inside the final ten minutes there was just two points between the sides, 2-13 to 1-14.

St John's did the scoring damage towards the close of the first half with John McNally, Seán O'Connor, Seán O'Reilly, Páraic O'Connor and Nicky Devereux all on target.

Four minutes into the second half Shane McCann crashed home St John's goal after Páraic O'Connor had tapped down a McNally free into the wing-forward's path.

Syls sparkle to beat Ballymun

ST SYLVESTER'S 1-13 BALLYMUN KICKHAMS 0-10

Reigning Division 1 champions, St Sylvester's, gave a very solid performance when outplaying Ballymun Kickhams in Friday night's Evening Herald Dublin SFC first round clash at Parnell Park.

The 'Mun started brighly with two fine Derek Byrne points but a 19th minute goal from Micheál McCarthy put Syls very much into the driving seat when he fielded an angled delivery from Eoin Fanning before dispatching to the net and by the break the Malahide side led 1-5 to 0-3.

With the likes of Russell Cleere, Brian Sexton, and Colm Hanratty driving their side on Syls hit five scores without reply to move 1-12 to 0-5 ahead by the 45th minute as their forward line played some clever possession football to unlock the Ballymun defence.
