Was at the comer boro game really poor quality. Along with Kenny Murphy from comer was alright. The standard of hand passing was abysmal. Boro nearly got caught twice with the short puck out. Comer should have had a penalty. They missed 6 frees at least 4 should have been scored. Hopefully the games today are better.

Enjoyable match outin gowran i thought a draw would of being a fair result both teams guilty of some poor shooting.
Liam blanchfield started the game very well clara got to grips with him but he was very good in the 2nd half scoring a goal in either half the second was a lovely strike.
James bergin and james nolan got the clara goals the 3rd one a long free from bergin getting a touch to the net.bergin is a good foward and should of had another goal.
Jason cleere scored a well struck penalty after a high tackle on liam.
Jason hit a lot a ball bolger done some nice things but went in and out of it.John murphy caught the eye in the first half.lester drove a few bad wides.Both teams have a few to come back and will be happy enough with the way they are going.Ciarian brennan is a help to the bridge.
Colin very good for the shamrocks again he is great form at he monent hopefully he can bring that to kk in a few weeks.I know its only club but he is showing a bit of consistency.Adrian went off with a groin leg problem.Darren mullen was center back.

I was talking to a lad who was at the match he said it looked like a leg injury and going for a scan tuesday.

Village87 · 23-04-2019 12:15pm

Very poor result for James Stephens v Mullinavat. We will find it hard to avoid the relegation semi finals at this rate with Shamrocks, OLG & Clara left to play. We have 3 players on the senior panel at the moment and are not really doing it for the club. Cody dismissed John Walsh very quickly going on his form the weekend and is a very good hurler this time of year.

Stationmaster · 23-04-2019 12:51pm

Anyone got full results?

I wasn't at the game but i think John walsh got something like 14 points from frees?very hard to win a match at that rate.I do agree john walsh was dismissed to easily.I also think bolger is more suitable to clara at 11.

KK Supercats · 23-04-2019 2:24pm

KCR sport are saying Kilkenny will be without Cillian Buckley, James Maher, Richie Hogan, Rob Lennon and Conor Delaney for Dublin match with Eoin Murphy very doubtful...a lot of injuries already with the round robin not even started! Will really test strength of panel.

robwen · 23-04-2019 3:42pm

Cody will hardly let the round of club games in May go ahead

Neewollah · 23-04-2019 5:00pm

Apparently they are going ahead. That's the word coming from county board anyway. Clubs won't have their county players at all for training coming up to the game. Not the answer to club game problems cramming a game like this in my opinion.

blackcard · 23-04-2019 7:04pm

So, with the injuries, a team something like this
Darren Brennan
Paul Murphy
Huw Lawlor
Tommy Walsh
Conor Fogarty
Padraig Walsh
Enda Morrissey
Conor Browne
Richie Leahy
Billy Ryan
Walter Walsh
TJ Reid
Colin Fennelly
Liam Blanchfield
Ger Aylward

No one seems to know what the story is with scruff hopefully its not as serious.
the only thing we are lucky to have darren brennan he is a very confident keeper and im sure he will do a good job if he is called in.
It's a pity o loughlins didnt put huw full back last saturday bacause colin was really on his game.
Talking to a boro lad and im sure people here know more than me but im hearing its possible he might be ready in a few weeks or not be ready at all.
Time is certainly against maher and delaney but hopefully they make a quicker recovery and we have them back after the cw match.
It's the first time in all my time going to kk matches that no one has a clue of the set up of our team.I dunno if this is a good thing or bad thing.
From the team above i expect joey and deegan to start.My team as it stands for the laugh
Brennan
Murphy,lawlor,deegan
Joey,fogarty,morrisey
Leahy,padraig
Wally,tj,kevin kelly
Billy,colin,blanch
I wouldn't be suprised to see tommy walsh in defence or darren mullen or adrian in attack.Im sure who ever puts their hand up in training over the next few weeks will be in with a great chance.

Yeah, on second thoughts, I would find a spot for Joey Holden. Billy Ryan surely has to start

savannahkat · 23-04-2019 8:09pm

And here is a fifteen who either did not, could not or made just one game maybe two at the most through out the league due to injury or club commitment for Kilkenny, a fifteen who would not be out of their depth against any county team. It is ridiculous to judge Kilkenny on league form when these played either no part or very insignificant parts. There is no other county who can boast a second string like this and it is why Kilkenny are a top four team and why Kilkenny will be serious contenders for ultimate honors..

1 Ritchie Reid
2 D. Mullen 3 J. Holden 4 Hue lawlor
5 E. Shefflin 6 Cillian Buckley 7 J Cleere
8 R Corcoran 9 R. L Scanlan
10 Ger Alyward 11 T. J. Reid 12 A. Mullen
13 Ritchie Hogan 14 C. Fennelly 15 Bill Sheehan

Minors playing a very good Dublin side in Nowlan Park this Saturday. Best of luck to them and hopefully they will get good support!

brookville · 23-04-2019 8:36pm

Minor footballers defeated tonight by 8 points to Louth.well done to dj and all the backroom and players.Great to see progress being made.

sitkaspruce · 23-04-2019 8:37pm

Gutsy performance from the minors earlier. Only going down by 8 in the end.

Absolutely when you consider none of the minor hurlers, the guts of two teams, are involved. They're also another two hurling teams involved in the Celtic Challenge, though there's some crossover with the football there, but either way DJ is fishing from a very shallow pool.

minty81 · 23-04-2019 11:13pm

An early stab at the team for Dublin

Murphy/Brennan
P Murphy Lawlor Joey
P Walsh Cleere Deegan
Fogarty Leahy
Wally TJ Mullen
Ryan Fennelly Blanchfield

Hawkeye6 · 24-04-2019 10:52am

Excellent performance from DJ Carey’s minor footballers last night in the Park. Were down to 3 points half way through second half. Late Louth goal sealed it. Had some great chances too. Probably a bit naïve at times defensively, but overall played some great football. Some serious athletes with plenty speed on that Kilkenny team. Hope the hurlers can produce the same on Saturday. Fourth top scorers in Leinster minor last night behind Louth, Kildare and Dublin. To put the result in context, the players play very little club football and depend on the sessions with DJ and his coaching team while Louth have been training 3 times a week since January and thought they had a serious team. How would a Louth minor hurling team go against a Kilkenny minor hurling team?

Its scandalous. My local club had 4 training sessions for U11 boys, and then went to hurling.... What chance does any county manager in football in Kilkenny have when that's the attitude?!?

Correct attitude.

Hurling is the greatest sport in the world.

Football is very much meh.

Bahanaman · 24-04-2019 3:55pm

With all Kilkenny's injury problems do people think Brian Cody will play his strongest side when ye come to Dr. Cullen Park to face our lads in the second round of leinster?

When a young boy or girl pulls on a Kilkenny Jersey regardless of code, they deserve respect and support from Kilkenny GAA supporters. To say "correct attitude" is blindness to what is currently happening in the current development of hurling. 20 something lads got an opportunity to pull on the Kilkenny jersey last night, to play for a team managed by the greatest Hurler of all time. Lads who are not on the Kilkenny minor hurling squad, yet probably all club hurlers. Are you really so blinded that you have nothing positive to say about that?

He is probably on the county board
We played all our football league games in February and March at U13 and will have to wait until June to start the hurling.

He has the correct attitude to be !!!
Our lads do the few GF training sessions (must have to do a certain amount to tick a box on a form somewhere?) then its hurling from mid-April onwards.
There are pros and cons to it, I suppose.
But not all boys are great hurlers, but they COULD be great footballers !!
