Great to see hurling spreading around east kerry Kenmare\Kilgarvan won that game and are strong at under 16 again this year They won the under 16 championship in 2016 and should be contenders for the minor hurling championship in 2017 if they can mobilise and organise Good to see a South Kerry selection outside Kenmare\Kilgarvan also performing well. Tralee Parnells have a team as well.

Of the senior clubs its mostly the same coaches as last year. I hear Crotta O Neills have former players Padraig Cronin and Jerome O Sullivan as their management team and Causeway do not have Hagerty from Limerick training them this year, they have another man from Limerick instead.
I heard last night that Ballyduff beat Ardfert in Last years NK League final on Friday evening in Ardfert. They did not seem to have the strongest team out. Thats a great result for them.
Also I hear Crotta beat a very strong Kilmoyley team playing with 14 men most of the second half as Jordan Conway seen a red just after halftime. Thats a good result for them in the NK Championship. The young minors coming into their team must be giving them a boost.
The Co. Championship draw goes ahead tonight im sure it will being out some interesting pairings for the first round. Im looking forward to this years championship it looks like it could be wide open. Hopefully it is

Crotta were leading St Brendan's Thursday night when the game had to be abandoned due to an injury to Crotta and Kerry player Jordan Conway.
County Championship is wide open again this year.
Also I see Kenmare gave the Stacks a walkover in Division 2 of the county league,is there a fine for giving a walkover?

Only for finals i think. It's been going on for a long time now with Kenmare not traveling. Fines should be given for any walkover. Apparently Kenmare only said they wouldn't travel at half 3 Wednesday afternoon

Fines should also be given out. The other side of it fixing a game at 7/7.30 midweek when either Kenmare have to go to Tralee or the other way around is never going to work. Games should be brought to half way at least

division 2 of the county league in a sorry state as is south Kerry adult hurling
Kenmare don't seem to want to travel to the north Kerry venues and north Kerry clubs don't seem to want to travel to kenmare
It is a pity as there is a proud tradition of hurling in Kenmare and they have some fine under age teams as good as anything in North Kerry but when it comes to adult games seem to stop
Kilgarvan seem to be coming with a good young side which is positive
However at this stage the south Kerry clubs will be lucky to play 6 games each this year so I cannot see how any teams or players can really develop at adult level. sad state of affairs really

Kenmare/Kilgarvan won out the Kerry Feile with some really superb hurling this year. I can't speak for the senior set-up but I can definitely say that I consider underage hurling in Kerry to be of a very high standard at the moment.

Kilgervan did when they were regulars in Munster i think. As playing county league seems to be a waste of time for all involved. It's not just them, the likes of Stacks and Crokes will also be effected by the lack of games

the fixing of games for a Wednesday night is a non runner. anyone working or at school or college hasn't a hope of travelling at 5 o clock for a game in north Kerry. why cant they be played on a sunday after playing football on Saturday. what is the advantage of 2 divisions 2?
once kenmare played st brendans in ardfert in hurling at 4 and continued on to ballybunion to play beale at 8 in football, both in the county leagues and both on a saturday evening.

While i agree it's crazy to have games on a Wednesday, it's hard to see where else they could be played. At this time of year you have junior football league on Friday evenings and senior at weekends, so you could have teams playing three days in a row

Junior Football should be pushed back to start in August,that would free up the Friday evenings for Division Two games in,April,May and June to get games played maybe have two rounds in one week to get the league stages done and dusted early,
Play the Division One games Wednesday evenings as fixing the games for weekends isnt working,split the division in two with the County Championship finalists seeded and the County League finalists from the previous year also seeded,might be less games but it would free up time for teams to play more challenge games and training and it would make it hard for teams to call off games as teams should have no problem playing Wednesday evenings,at the moment this years Division One schedule is all over the place,anything to have the teams playing less games games against each other is a good thing.

No walker overs last night, but Stacks went to Kilgarvan and lost. Kenmare who have only actually played one game so far could get into the final ahead of them now, despite playing all their games. Crazy

kilgarvan v kenmare next week will decide a lot in 2a
seeing that there is no south Kerry hurling team in county championship, can players play with the nearest senior team to them? john mark foley would walk on any senior team in north Kerry. will definitely be south Kerry team next year with the talent coming up.

Do you have to have a facebook account to watch it? I presume so. Not sure. The Kerry v Cork junior game was shown live too. Little or no commentary apart from the score being given every few minutes.

Replay of St Brendans and Causeway next Saturday night,busy day in ASP Kerry camoige team taking on Roscommon earlier in the day,I think the camoige have lost an opportunity here,if the throw in time was later they could have got the extra support from the crowd that will be going to the county championship game later that evening
Not many are going to go in and watch the camoige,go home and then come back in again to the watch the senior hurling game

St Brendan's 1.13 Causeway 2.07
They say goals win matches, that didn't prove to be the case for Causeway who scored two goals to St Brendan's one. Causeway got the dream start when Sean Leahy bulged the net on fifty seconds.
Keith Carmody added a point, in between Egan pointed for St Brendan's.
Kevin Hannafin, Tom Moloney had a point each before Cian Hussey leveled matters 4 points to 1 goal and a point.
Six minutes later Stephen Murphy had another goal when he slipped the sliotar between the left post and Darren Delaney, his brother Mark added a point before John Egan had two in a row.
Thomas Casey, Anthony Fealy and Paul McGrath had three for Causeway six points to two five with time up.
Into added time Tadgh Flynn brought a save from Tim Hannafin on thirty four minutes Egan pointed a 65 to leave the halftime score St Brendan's 0.7 Causeway 2.05
Brandon Barrett came onto the field for the second half and on six minutes he had a point for Causeway, Egan replied with a free, thirty seconds later he drove over from distance, at the other end Darren Delaney brought off two great saves.
Disaster for Causeway on 13 minutes when they had a man sent off with a second yellow. On fifteen minutes Darren Dineen burst out of defence and blasted over a monster point from his own half reducing the margin to two.
McGrath and Egan swapped pointed frees.
All the scores to the end came from St Brendan's Daithi Griffin had a point John Egan had two and Tim Hannafin pushed the ball to the net to leave the final score St Brendan's 1.13 Causeway 2.07

Lixnaw well fancied by many this year
serious young talent with experience around in the likes of John Griffin, Pat Corridan, Mike Conway, Martin Stackpoole etc
The bookies favourite as the the moment. Kilmoyley and St Brendans are next best I . Kilmoyley going for 3 in a row will have serious confidence and have a serious tradition in the club of putting together log winning sequences

St Brendans V Kilmoyley Kilmoyley 0.19 St Brendan's 0.14
St Brendan's failed to get past a very assured and composed Kilmoyley team, Kilmoyley managed the game very well especially around their fullback and half back line, where they closed off most of the threats posed by St Brendan's. Tom Moloney opened the scoring for St Brendan's, Daniel Collins added four points for Kilmoyley three frees and one brilliant one from play, Kilmoyley leading by four points to one with seventeen minutes on the clock.
Cian Hussey and Tom Moloney added points for St Brendan's, Collins with two, Sean Maunsell and Adrian Royle had a point each, Cian Hussey and Stephen Leen pointed for St Brendan's, Kilmoyley eight points St Brendan's five points twenty nine minutes gone.
Daniel Collins and John Egan swapped points before halftime to leave the it Kilmoyley 0.09 St Brendan's 0.06. John Egan and Collins had a point each within three minutes of the second half. On thirty five minutes St Brendan's were reduced to fourteen, this meant that Kevin Hannafin moved to full back and it proved to prompt a revival of sorts for them.
Points from Daniel Collins two and Adrian Royle one left the score on thirty eight minutes Kilmoyley 0.12 St Brendan's 0.08 the St Brendan's point coming from the stick of Stephen Leen.
Daithi Griffin and John Egan added a point each but Daniel Collins canceled them with two of his own. Aiden McCabe brought a great save from Eric Leen before Cian Hussey reduced the margin to three 0.11 for St Brendan's 0.14 for Kilmoyley, John Egan and Hussey made it a one point game on fifty two minutes.
The Collins brothers split the posts for Kilmoyley Daniel twice and Robert once before Darren Dineen drove over for St Brendan's to leave the score on sixty minutes Kilmoyley 0.17 St Brendan's 0.14.
With sixty three minutes on the clock John Egan went short with a free to Darren Dineen in an attempt to manufacture a goal but the ball was cleared, Daniel Collins pointed yet another free and James Godley played a captains part when he pointed from distance.
Kilmoyley are now in a semifinal as are Lixnaw, St Brendan's go on to meet Abbeydorney and Ballyduff will play Causeway.

St Brendan’s 1.12 Abbeydorney 1.12
There was no separating these two after 69 minutes of poor hurling.
St Brendan’s played with a fairly stiff breeze in the first half but it was Abbeydorney who went into a two point lead with points from Nigel Roche and PJ Kane.
John Egan and Tom Moloney replied for St Brendan’s but Nigel Roche had two more before Cian Hussey had one for St Brendan’s, four points to three on nineteen minutes.
John Egan and Eric Leen swapped points with Nigel Roche to leave matters on six points all, Aiden Healy drove over from the right and John Egan levelled on the stroke of half time seven points all at the break.
Abbeydorney had the first score of the second half, Kevin Skinner levelled and Daithi Griffin put St Brendan’s ahead only for Nigel Roche to level it up again.
John Egan split the posts before he drove in on goal blasted towards the far corner for Tim Hannafin to force the ball to the net, Kevin Skinner followed up with a point, 1.11 now for St Brendan’s 0.09 for O’Dorney, Enough done said St Brendan’s not so said Abbeydorney as Roche tapped over another free.
Ronan Donovan bore down on goal passed to David Egan who fumbled and the ball went out for a 65 Nigel was wide with the 65, chance gone said the Abbeydorney supporters not at all said the players.
Padraigh O’Mahony pointed for St Brendan’s 1,12 to 0.10 fifty nine minutes gone.
Four minutes later David Egan forced the ball to the net to reduce the margin to one point, Darren Delaney was injured during that passage of play and seemed in pain as he pucked out the ball, that puck out ended up in Nigel Roche’s hand and just tapped it over to draw the game 1.12 to 1.12 Abbeydorney had one more chance to win it but Tim Hannafin the stand in goalie was equal to it.
Usually in draws you are supposed to say both teams deserved another chance I wonder.
But both teams will benefit from the extra games should make an intriguing replay with both sides thinking they left it after them.

Lixnaw and Kilmoyley look very much the best two teams so far
However, Ballyduff, St Brendans and Abbeydorney all have capacity to improve so cannot be ruled out just yet
Kilgarvan are doing well in division 2 of the county league and in the intermediate championship. Some fine young hurlers in Kilgarvan at present and footballers as well
