Going by Wikipedia roll of honour, they have never won the intermediate which is surprising. Lost the 99 final to Rathmore. Would have had a few key players from the East Kerry 3 in a row team around then. Micheal Donoghue in the full back line who took no prisoners. Moynihan and Crowley of course and Paud Donoghue who as Horsebox said was a brilliant free taker. Paud Donaghue was a brilliant forward. Never played intercounty but was one of those great club players. Donaghue seems to be a popular name in Gkenflesk. I think he played up to Junior just never senior.

I think he played up to Junior just never senior. I remember seeing him play when I was very young. It might've been for East Kerry. He was the best forward on the pitch. Great kicking from distance.

South Kerry v West Kerry called off today. A bit of common sense prevailing somewhere.

South Kerry v West Kerry called off today. A bit of common sense prevailing somewhere. An indictment on the county board for fixing 2nd round games as winner v losers which was always going to lead to dead rubbers. Made zero sense to not go winner v winner in the 2nd round

Should there not be some sort of trap door or an equivalent for divisional sides?
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.....where the treatment of clubs is concerned.
Its making an absolute mockery of Kerry's blue riband footballing event.

This is what happens when you turn championship in to a league.

Were Glenflesk even a senior club at the time, what an achievement beat a seriously strong Gaeltacht side too. Googled the teams there, An Ghaeltacht had a huge amount of stars with the Ó Sé's, the MacGearailts, Ó Cinnéide, Corduff, Ó Cruadhlaíoch. Glenflesk, with Moynihan and Crowley, had a very balanced, physical team Glenflesk: Eamon Bowler; Paul Favier, Michael O'Donoghue, John O'Sullivan; Timmy O'Sullivan, Kieran O'Sullivan, Ollie Favier; Seamus Moynihan, Dermot Kelly; Paud O'Donoghue, Davy O'Donoghue (Capt.), Eric O'Donoghue; Shane Dennehy, John Crowley, Pat O'Donoghue Subs: Eugene Bowler for E O'Donoghue, Damien McCarthy for P O'Donoghue, An Ghaeltacht: Pol Ruiseal; Mici Ó Conchúir, Seán MacSithigh, Marc Ó Sé;. Tomás Ó Sé , Caoimhin Breathnach, Feargal Ó Se; Darragh Ó Se, Pól Ó Cuinn; Roibeard MacGearailt, JJ Corduff, Aodan MacGearailt; Tomás Ó Conchuir, Dara Ó Cinnéide, Cathal Ó Dubhda Subs: Seán Ó Beaglaoi for S MacSithigh, Conal Ó Cruadhlaoich for C Ó Dubhda, Eoin Ó Cruadhlaoich for T Ó Conchuir, 53

Does anyone have the schedule for the remainder of year? Dates for 1/4, semi and Final? I assume remaining club finals will be played after county championship has concluded.

Anyone have any first hand reports on matches this weekend? I was in Beaufort last night - Strand Rd kicked the game away - 14 wides to 3 & lost by a point. Tom Hoare again very good - Mike Breen was ordinary, Cillian Burke quiet. David Moran absent, Tommy Walsh played 2nd half only - Jack Savage best on view, kicked 7 points, constantly on the ball.

I saw Moran was out and that’s a massive loss- would have been great if they could have pulled it out of the bag. Thanks for the info

Mike Breen is still recovering from the shoulder he got from Con Barrett I’d say.

Thanks for the info Strand Road would have had to win by 6 to oust MK - it was definitely on given their possession. Focus now on relegation battle - that’s another story!!

Anyone have any first hand reports on matches this weekend? Was in Listowel for FR vs St Kierans. The lady at the gate was gone after ten minutes, luckily or she'd have had a queue for a refund... Heard FR were ringing lads yest and this morning looking for XV available players.... once Listowel pulled this was always a deal rubber.. 3-01 to 0-02 after 7 or 8 minutes tells it's own story. FR fielding more players with 20+ numbers on their backs unknown to printers but only to locals is poor fair.... Looking around, guessing between 40 and 60 punters paid on, there would be more at a NK intermediate game. Poor poor, St Kierans did enough against a patched together XV ... one wouldn't fear them

Yeah I’d agree. It was a good game but we (Rahillys) missed too much. Could have been out of sight in the first half. We’ve left the last two county championship games behind us.
Cormac Coffey is an awful loss more than any of the other lads that are missing since last year.

That’s correct - next weekend is a free weekend, then 1/4 finals weekend of 15th, semis a week later, with a two week break to the final. Think the club finals pencilled in for Oct bank holiday weekend.

An unusual stat from the first phase of the county championship (as least I think its unusual).
Three of the eight teams that did not make it to the QF stage actually had positive scoring differences after their three games. The three happen to be the club sides with the 5 divisional sides that did not make the QF's all performing dismally.
It looks like a situation where some divisions give up before the competition even begin - possibly from being unable to pull their clubs together or a belief that the cause is hopeless. For me this further reinforces my belief that if Kerry is to continue with the divisional system there must be some form of qualification for a divisional side - they cannot continue to occupy spots at the expense of clubs.

I can’t imagine a case whereby Divisions can be relegated. The whole premise of divisions is every player can play county championship level. Now the county board should come down hard on West Kerry for refusing to play their game. I also think reverting to the previous system of winners playing winners and losers playing losers is a better system as it avoids dead runners, guarantees two games, you get the benefit of a week off if you win your two games too
