Castlemitchell into the JFC final.

Johner · 12-09-2014 10:59pm

I'd expect Straffan to destroy Rathcoffey and Castlemitchell.

Big wins for Castledermot and Eadestown. You would imagine both would be a little short on the quality needed to win the championship but wins like that can give them confidence and momentum.

As a matter of interest which club has been stuck in the intermediate championship the longest? Rathangan would have to be up there.

Rathangan were relegated in 2003. Know that because my own club beat them in the final. Castledermot have definitely been down there longer

Was at the game yesterday, straffan won handy enough 9 points in it in the end, good game

paulie21 · 14-09-2014 2:27pm

Anyone else hear the guy on Kfm call Castlemitchell Castlemichael yesterday? Thought it was a disgrace on a so called sports show

IFC Semi Finals

Towers v Castledermot

Eadestown v Kilcock

Johner · 16-09-2014 3:15pm

Fancy Carbury to turn Celbridge over on Friday night, will probably head over to it. Heard Brophy is leaving tomorrow.

klairondavis · 16-09-2014 4:58pm

I enjoyed that weekend. Kildare hurlers landing another title in 2014 and Kill avoiding the drop.

What a display by Johnny Doyle on Sunday night. I fully expected Confey to beat Allenwood but you can never write that man off. Superb footballer.

Nib · 16-09-2014 10:33pm

Kill are masters of relegation finals. That was their third in a row.

Surprised Suncroft laid down so easily against Eadestown, they were 2-9 to 0-0 down at half time. Rainbow came off the bench for them.

paulie21 · 18-09-2014 1:15pm

klairondavis · 18-09-2014 7:41pm

Celbridge may struggle for scores if Paddy Brophy is unavailable tomorrow night. I still have a hunch that they will have enough to get past Carbury. They have the defenders to do a man marking job on Eoghan O'Flaherty and Terry Rossiter. I like how they have shaped up so far this year. They were humiliated by Moorefield at this stage last year and will be going all out to right that wrong.

Speaking of the Moores you would expect they will have too much power for JTB tomorrow night. If JTB can keep it open they do have the legs to give Moorefield serious problems but it's more likely that Moorefield will turn it into a dogfight and there are few teams in Kildare that can go blow for blow with them in that sort of encounter.

Sarsfields v Maynooth is an interesting one. There doesn't appear to be a whole lot of confidence behind the Sash this year. There's some serious talent coming through at that club but it will be a few years yet before those talented underage players are ready to make a big impact at senior level. I think Maynooth have a shout in this one. They have put up some big scores in the last few rounds albeit against inferior teams. Sarsfields will be a big step up and will probably win out in the end but I can see it being tighter than the odds suggest.

paulie21 · 19-09-2014 8:03pm

Have to tip Carbury if Brophy is out. Moores and Sash should come through in their games

Nib · 19-09-2014 8:09pm

Good start for JTB.

What's the score that link isnt working for me

Nib · 19-09-2014 8:20pm

Moores 0-4 JTB 0-3. 18 mins gone.

Maybe Mixlr doesn't work on mobile.

Nib · 19-09-2014 8:21pm

1-4 to 0-3 now. Eanna O'Connor has 1-3.

The one man band.. pity he's not home bred

Nib · 19-09-2014 8:39pm

HT: Moores 1-6 JTB 0-4. O'Connor with 1-4 (1f)

Carbury beating Celbridge by 0-4 to 0-3 at HT.

O'Connor is definitely good enough to play inter-county, whether he wants to with Kildare is another story.

paulie21 · 19-09-2014 8:51pm

0-6 apiece in Car Cel game. Brophy has gone to Oz during the week as rumours suggested

Seems to be doing all the scoring for the Moores this year, probably a natural forward they haven't had in years

roy rodgers · 19-09-2014 8:57pm

O connor brings a different style of football that he picked up in his school days and as usually in kildare no one will be able to pick him up.

paulie21 · 19-09-2014 9:06pm

Celbridge starting to pull away. Lead 10 7

paulie21 · 19-09-2014 9:07pm

Terry Rossiter has picked up a black card
