    A studious performance in patches but lessons to be learned

    ST PATRICK’S CS NAVAN… 1-16 COLAISTE EOIN… 4-03 First off, the best bits: inclinations that Clann Na nGael’s Cormac Smith is one of the brightest emerging talents in the county apparently are gloriously true. Secondly, the blistering attacking potential which was so apparent against St Joseph’s of Rochfordbridge was once again there in all its…

    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. For example, if I ever do get back farming, more classic machinery will be added to the PZ Haybob 300 and Amazon half tonne…

    Longwood Law abides as Moyfenragh advance

    MOYFENRAGH… 1-17 AN TUAISCEART… 1-10 Life taught me a long time ago never to judge a book by its cover. Sure my own journey about this big old ball is living proof of the futility of such a practice. Now read on… With no disrespect intended to anybody, it would be ventured a few of…

    Lough make home advantage count

    Lough Crew Gaels… 1-16 Blackwater… 0-08 Lough Crew Gaels, made up of players from the Ballinlough, Moylagh, Oldcastle and St Brigid’s clubs, took full advantage of their game taking place in the home of the first named when running out resounding winners of this Brady’s Skoda Regional Football Championship encounter on wet and windy Tuesday…

    The Dixon Line a winning one for Moyfernagh

    MOYFERNAGH… 0-09 LOUGHCREW GAELS… 0-08 Danny Dixon’s pointed free in the third minute of stoppage time guaranteed Moyfernagh a deserved opening round victory in this Brady’s Skoda Regional Football Championship encounter at Dunganny tonight (Wednesday). The Boardsmill clubman featured on the senior panel previously during Andy McEntee’s tenure and, while he has seemingly been travelling…

    O’Reilly makes it alright on the night for Blackwater

    BLACKWATER…1-13 AN TUAISCEART…0-13 Brian O’Reilly from the St Michael’s club underlined just why he is considered to be one of the brightest prospects in the county when producing a top drawer performance to inspire Blackwater to their first ever win in the Regional Football Championship in Moynalty last night. There was never much between the…

    Tully’s three pointer sets holders on road to repeat victory

    BOYNE VALLEY… 1-08 TARA… 0-09 Football in Slane is on the up once again as evidenced by the emergence of players like Tadhg Martyn and Brayden Colfer on county underage teams and the fact was underscored still further when the Louth-border club’s Matt Tully turned in an outstanding display in the opening round of the…
