The referee in the Ballyheigue kilmoyley game last Friday night was poor. One sided game but certain players I.e county players getting away with continuous fouling and late striking and no action been taken.

Certain country players and clubs like one of the clubs playing last are getting away with murder from the local refs. Just cast your mind back to last year county championship kilmoyley vs Crotta the ref seemed to lose his watch and Kept playing until kilmoyley took the lead and then blew it up. Not joking there was over 10 mins maybe more of added time in a game where there was no stoppages. Then poor Crotta had to play ballyduf in the losers round and kilmoyley went on to win the championship could have been so different if the ref had not forgotten his watch.. But anyway That's the gaa just look at yesterday's fiasco in Croker!!! Wouldent happen in a junior game in knockanure.

I see the same "outside" refs are being used this year for the championship,was only last year that a club manager in Cork was saying in the Examiner that it was time for them to start using refs from Tipp and Kilkenny for their championship games as their own refs had the game ruined with constant whistle blowing and it was game of frees
The outside refs were brought in here to improve the games
Last years championship down here was all frees,the refs give soft frees and there is no flow in the games,all stop start

The Kerry SHC kicks off this weekend with all 8 Teams in action.
First up Saturday night is Crotta v Abbeydorney at 7pm in Ballyduff.
On Sunday sees a double header in Abbeydorney with Kilmoyley v Ballyduff at 2pm followed by Ballyheigue v Ardfert at 3.30pm
The final game of the weekend is Causeway v Lixnaw in Kilmoyley at 7pm Sunday evening.
How do people see these games going?
In other news Pat Joe Connolly from Ballyduff has transferred to Ballyea in Clare (Tony Kelly's club) and scored a goal in his Clare SHC debut few weeks against Eire Og. Rumours the reason he left was because he couldn't get picked for Ballyduff, but yet he can make a Clare senior club side. Seems odd.
He was the outstanding forward in Kerry in 2011.

Mike O Halloran's preview of the Crotta and O Dorney game An overview of the Championship would suggest that it is wide open this year and so it seems with very little between the teams. I would suggest that it is between Kilmoyley, Lixnaw, St Brendan’s and Abbeydorney, but we will know more at around 8.30pm on Sunday evening. The first round games are being played in North Kerry with the final in the redeveloped Austin Stack Park. The North Kerry clubs did a wonderful job last season and I’m sure they will be even more organised this year. I’m looking forward to the hurling fare and looking forward to the Mikados and sugary tae. The Garveys SuperValu Kerry Senior Hurling Championship begins on Saturday at 7pm in Ballyduff, where near neighbours Crotta O’Neills and Abbeydorney will open the weekend action. Abbeydorney will not have great memories of their last visit to Ballyduff in last year’s championship; on a windy evening when they were beaten by Kilmoyley after conceding handy enough goals. Abbeydorney come into the championship this year with a determined air of confidence about them. They have defeated Ballyduff and drawn with Kilmoyley, only to lose after extra time. While these results are significant, even more significant is the large scores they are amassing in games. Adding to the new determination are the twin towers of the O’Leary brothers, the silken ball distribution of PJ Keane and the hard work of James O’Connor. Crotta O’Neills came within a whisker of progressing in last year’s competition when they had a chance to defeat Ballyduff…but didn’t. Crotta need to build on their efforts from the last few years. There is huge work being done underage in the club and success at senior level needs to drive the ambition of the underage players. Shane Nolan will again be the key man, but the other big star on the O’Neills team these days is the great youngster Jordan Conway who starred for the Kerry seniors each time he played this year. Sean Weir, the other Kerry panellist who seemed to fall down the rankings with the Kerry hurling selectors, will have a point to prove. I expect that Abbeydorney will not want to leave “the home of hurling” without a win this time and if their high scoring form continues on Saturday evening, they should have enough to just about pip Crotta O’Neills. traleetoday.ie/preview-crotta-abbeydorney-battle-kerry-shc-opener-saturday/

It will be a disgrace if matches take place while the rest of the country and county will be watching Ireland v France. Hopefully county board will see sense, kind of a PR disaster if they don't.

More previews from Mike O Halloran
On Sunday the championship action moves to the pristine pitch in Abbeydorney where Ballyduff take on Kilmoyley at 12 noon, this is a repeat of last year at this venue where Kilmoyley completely bossed the game at the end.
Ballyduff will argue that the injury to David Grady upset heir rhythm and maybe it did, but Kilmoyley also lost their talisman Tom Murnane and still went on to win.
Ballyduff had a win over Kilmoyley in the past couple of weeks but both had presented shadow teams that evening.
Ballyduff has new management this year and seem to be content with the way training is going. The Ballyduff squad is quite tight number-wise, perhaps numbering 23 or 24.
Michael Boyle is on fire in most games and ably assisted by younger players like Eoin Ross, Jack Goulding. There is also a very good chance that Paud Costello will line out, but the game will come a month too early for Padraigh Boyle.
Another big boost for Ballyduff is the return of PJ Gorman to the goalkeeping duties, not alone is he a great shot stopper but his puck out management is also vital.
Gary O’Brien, who starred in Lixnaw last year versus Crotta is training well, as is Aiden Boyle, two big men who will need to handle and distribute a lot of ball to their forwards in order to get over Kilmoyley.
I saw Kilmoyley play Ballyheigue recently and they looked extremely organised and full of confidence and endeavour. Admittedly, Ballyheigue were poor on the night, but the Kilmoyley system of play and distribution of the ball was very impressive.
Everybody knows the headline players Kilmoyley have at their disposal. If PJ Gorman is important for Ballyduff, Aiden McCabe is equally so for the champions.
Paudie O’Connor is back to his best this year after the knee injury he sustained kept him on the side line until late in the championship last year.
Daniel Collins, Dougie Fitzell, Tom Murnane will not let the Neilus Flynn stray from Togher Bán without a massive struggle.
If Ballyduff don’t win the championship this year, it will be quite a while before they will be in contention due to the lack of underage success. So it’s now or not for a while for Ballyduff. I think they might just do it.
BALLYHEIGUE and St Brendan’s is the second-match at Abbeydorney on Sunday coming at 4.30pm, after the Kilmoyley V Ballyduff opener earlier that afternoon.
St Brendan’s return to the beautiful pitch that is presented at Abbeydorney to try to put the ghost of last year’s county final to rest.
I’m pretty sure that St Brendan’s will never be as poor again as they were in the final last year, where they lost their way very early on and were well beaten in the end by Kilmoyley.
St Brendan’s have a huge cohort of very successful players of varying ages from the likes of John Egan – whose name is usually prefixed by “The Great” – to the Horgans and young Eric Leen.
St Brendan’s will not want any banana skins on the way to another final and a chance at redemption. In the county final last year, Kevin Hannafin was not introduced until very late, Cian Hussey was in his element two seasons ago when he starred in the championship and he now seems to have returned to his best in the past few weeks.
Darren Dineen will lord any area of the field he operates in.
St Brendan’s have the benefit of playing in a final already this year, when they were defeated by Causeway in the 2015 County League final two weeks ago. They had beaten Causeway a week or so earlier in a high-scoring game in Ardfert and they also accounted for Ballyduff.
St Brendan’s have had quality games in the run up to this encounter with Ballyheigue, who do not seem to me firing on all cylinders. This time last year they were pushing Kilmoyley to extra time in the North Kerry Championship, but two weeks ago they were a pale shadow of themselves when Kilmoyley smacked them all over the pitch.
There was an improvement in their fortunes later with a win over Lixnaw, which might point to an improvement in their form just at the right time.
Ballyheigue have not had much success at underage level in recent years and are dependent on the free taking abilities of Philip Lucid to get scores on the board.
Jason Casey will attempt to drive them from the back and Shane Dunne will be busy around the field with help from Tomas Casey, Mikey Halloran and Jason Griffin, but it will not be enough to overcome St Brendan’s.

And the final preview of this weekends action from Mike O Halloran Causeway and Lixnaw play the twilight game on Sunday in Lerrig, Causeway have come off a win in the 2015 County League where they defeated St Brendan’s by three points two weeks ago and are returning to Lerrig where they played their best hurling in one game last year. At the launch of the Garveys SuperValu Hurling championship a few weeks ago most of the players who attended tipped Causeway to win the championship outright. For the past number of years people have said “if Causeway could win one Championship they could win three or four in a row”. Causeway have threatened to do great things over the past few years with some great performances in some games but were unable to continue their progression to the trophy bearing the name of one of their most famous club men. Causeway have a whole host of players that have graced the inter county and colleges hurling scene but some how they have not been able to reach the Holy Grail. They can call on the likes of Kerry stars Keith Carmody, Bryan Murphy, Thomas Casey and of course Colum Harty even though there is a doubt about his fitness as he retired injured in the final versus St Brendan’s, there are reports that up to five Causeway players are on the injured list for the game. There is also a doubt about the availability of the impressive dual star Brandon Barrett. Causeway will need everybody fit and ready for the challenge posed by the powerful machine that is Lixnaw. I saw Lixnaw playing Ballyduff recently and they looked really sharp even without Colin Sheehy and Shane Conway. Stephen Power’s men will present a huge challenge to Causeway with the power they have at the back the reliability of Martin Stackpoole between the posts and the lethal forwards like Sheehy, the two Conway’s and James Flaherty. Lixnaw have had huge success at underage in the past few years and can call on other young guns with loads of big match experience, the likes of Brendan Brosnan and John Buckley.. Expect Causeway to bring everything they have on the night and they get all the breaks. I don’t think they will have enough for Lixnaw. traleetoday.ie/preview-will-lixnaw-causeway-emerge-triumphant-sunday-evening/

I might be wrong but i think its been 5 years now since they last won a championship game. How is this possible in a championship with only 8 teams!? Like i've said before this is why there should be some sort of relegation or something from the championship.

The report talks about Ardferts "omplete display of hurling at its finest" against Causeway. Something similar happened against Causeway last year at the same stage but by the time the final came around Ardfert had a complete systems failure. That will haunt them. The last time they won it they were knocked out of the intermediate championship by an Gaeltacht nice and early too. The football can take a back seat now in 2016. They are good enough to win the hurling championship in 2016 if they pull out all the stops.
