Kilshannig 2-15 Mitchelstown 0-9. Full time.
Kilshannig were the superior team today both physically and football-wise. They were very strong on the ball, a very well conditioned team to be fair to them. I'd love to know who organises their S&C. I know Will Twomey from Kilworth has been involved in recent years.
Killian and Éanna O' Hanlon orchestrated things in midfield. They were both outstanding. Colm O' Shea kept Cathail O' Mahony very quiet, so quite that Cathail got blackcarded after being dispossessed out of frustration. Mark Keane was very quiet too. Éanna beat him hands down in midfield. Kilshannig ran at pace at Mitchelstown whereas Mitchelstown's attack was slower and more laboured.
Mitchelstown always show promise at the start of the year but fail to do it when at the business end of championship. They are certainly good enough to get out of this grade but they could miss the boat too if they don't do it sooner rather than later. I think Kilshannig should win it out now. Talk about finding form at the right time. They now seem to have a full squad and are now moving at full throttle.
easy be an expert now!
