Must have been a great game to watch.
Am planning to head out on Saturday for the finals - hopefully NUIG will be there with their Mayo contingent.

Anyone know what the DCU team was? - usually have a county team left on the bench - they'll be in some state of shock after that defeat...

DCU out in Sigerson shock

03 March 2011


Holders and hot favourites DCU have been knocked out in the quarter-finals of the Sigerson Cup this afternoon.

The north Dublin college met UCC in a repeat of the 2010 final, which they won by a five-point margin.

However, the Munster men exacted their revenge in a dramatic encounter at UCD Belfield this afternoon (Thursday), with a goal ten minutes from the end proving the decisive score in a 1-12 to 0-14 victory.



DCU and DIT had started the year vying for Sigerson favouritism but neither side will be on show in Friday's semi-finals, DIT having been dumped out by the University of Limerick two weeks ago.

UL's hopes of building on that victory were dashed by surprise packages NUI Maynooth today, with the Co Kildare college reaching the semi-finals for the second successive year.

Maynooth trailed by one at the break (1-1 to 0-3) but held off-colour UL to a single point thereafter to run out 0-9 to 1-2 winners at the final whistle.

Maynooth, who reached the last four on home soil last year, will face Ulster University Jordanstown in the semi-finals on Friday after UUJ's impressive defeat of IT Carlow.

UUJ had 13 points to spare over Cork IT in the first round and managed to eclipse that winning margin this time with a 2-19 to 1-8 victory.

They led by five at the interval (1-10 to 1-5) and extended their lead throughout the second half against an outclassed IT Carlow collective.

UUJ's goals came from Conor McManus and Jason McAnulla, with Craig Rogers responding from the penalty spot for Carlow.

Quarter-final day finishes with the meeting of NUI Galway and hosts UCD at 5 o'clock.

Thursday's Sigerson Cup quarter-final results:

UUJ 2-19 IT Carlow 1-8
NUI Maynooth 0-9 UL 1-2
UCC 1-12 DCU 0-14

Not sure it's that big of a shock. They were awful in the O'Byrne Cup when I saw them. UCC would have a good team - Daithi Casey, Johnny Buckley, Barry O'Driscoll, Adrian Greaney, Seamus Hanafin and would have Billy Morgan over them.

Looks there for the taking for UCD now even without Peter Kelly.
There's Seán Brady going in, what dya think Seán?

Well Kildare should have no problem beating any sigerson cup team but i suppose your right didn't DCU win the O'Byrne cup last year

Would fancy a UCC v UUJ final now.

Football club still go by UCG, although officially they are not allowed to.  You won't hear one player on the pitch shouting "c'mon NUIG".
I was a bit premature with the HT score.

Well it's easier to shout UCG & most of the players on todays team would be only 7/8 when they had the name change so fair play to them for keeping the traditions.

Hurling club and ladies would be the same.

0-15 to 1-2 now. UCD running away with it. Was going to take a half day to go up to it, glad I didn't. Being told that Heslin is running the show.
