Credit Union Senior League Round 8 Kerins O Rahillys 2-14 Kilcummin 0-07
A comprehensive display by Kerins O’Rahillys gave us a deserved win over Kilcummin played at the Kilcummin pitch last Sunday afternoon. We dominated from the throw in with Con Barrett and Gavin Duffy dominant at mid field and Cormac Coffey outstanding at wing back.
Opening points by Kieran O’Mahony, Cormac Coffey and Jack Savage had us ahead by 0-03 to Kilcummin’s 0-02 at the 16th minute. Then a great move by Con Barrett when he raced through the centre and set up Sean Walsh who put a piledriver to the corner of the net. Further points by Jack Savage, Kieran O’Mahony, Greg O’Connell, and Kevin Walshe left us ahead at half time by Kerins O’Rahillys 1-08 to Kilcummin’s 0-02.
A great save by Gary Kissane just before half time when he dived to save a certain goal put out for a 45. The second half saw Kerins O’Rahillys again dominate and though Kilcummin had the first few points of this half we replied with points from Gavin Duffy, David Mc Loughlin, Kieran O Mahony, and a John O’Connor point to leave us ahead by 1-12 to Kilcummin’s 0-06 at the 47th minute.
A high ball floated in straight after was punched to the net by impressive full forward Sean Walsh which finished the game as a contest. We introduced Mark O’Sullivan, Declan Quill, Tommy Begley, Martin Tierney, and Ronan Quill.
Two final points from Declan Quill and Danny O’Sullivan sealed the issue. Gary Kissane made some great saves especially in the last few minutes when Kilcummin laid siege to the goals. Others to impress were Shane Brosnan, full back, Cian Sayers, Kevin Walshe, John O’Connor and Greg O’Connell.
