Dunboyne make it three from three
St Peter’s, Dunboyne..2-18Killary Emmets…1-13 It was a case of exactly as it said in the above headline as, despite fielding a much changed line up from their previous two outings, Dunboyne made it three Friday nights, three wins, in this U-19 FC encounter at Castletown. Their prior victories over St Patrick’s and Ratoath meant that…

Early season football fixtures released
What I believe to be the last club senior county football final of the season takes place on Sunday in Tipperary but, even before this calendar year’s business has been completed, thoughts have very much turned to the 2026 season. Panels have been drawn up – more of that anon – while, more significantly, the…

Dunboyne Camogs make history on home soil
St Peter’s, Dunboyne (Meath)…4-12 St Cillian’s (Offaly)…1-01 To be the first to achieve something in life is extremely special. Stating the blindingly obvious, it’s historic.

Two more great advertisements for Meath hurling
In the immediate aftermath of Stephen Masterson blowing the full time whistle at the end of another epic between Ratoath and Kiltale in the Meath SHC Final replay, temptation was to headline this piece ‘Podge and Rog lead Ratoath to title retention’. But that would have only told a fraction of the story… Not only…

Two from two under the Friday night lights
St Peter’s, Dunboyne…2-13 Ratoath…2-04 Winners Dunboyne registered all of their 2-13 total from open play as they made home advantage count against local rivals Ratoath at Kepak Park on Friday night.

Cover crop showing further green shoots afoot
St Patrick’s CS Navan…1-20 Moate CS (Westmeath)…2-10 In so many facets of life, I have absolutely no problem admitting to being a traditionalist. Perhaps to the point of being old fashioned.
