Division 1 Table after Round 9
Castleisland Desmonds 1:18-St.Marys Caherciveen 4:12 (account thanks to Desmonds Facebook)
St. Mary's of Caherciveen made the long journey up from South Kerry on Saturday evening July 22nd to play Desmonds in round 9 of the Kerry GAACo. League.
With the scoreboard at half time reading 3:08 to 1:06 this game was definitely a game of two half's.
The 1st half started very well for Desmonds with a lovely opening point from Pat Fitzgerald we then saw club captain Thomas Hickey score a well taken penalty after Gearoid McCarthy was fouled, McCarthy followed it up with a point by himself from play all within the 1st 3mins of the game. (1:2 to 0:0)
Then Paul O'Donoghue broke though the Desmonds defence and scored a goal in the 4th min and and a point in the 5th and with St. Marys now in full attacking mode we saw them score their 2nd goal through no 15 Darren Casey in the 7th minute in this game which was played at a fast and furious pace.
Cian O'Connor of Desmonds added a point from a free kick and the score was now Desmonds 1:03 St. Marys 2:01 (9mins 1st Half)
St. Marys Sean Cournane open his account in the next couple of minutes with a well taken free plus a point from play and he then scored his sides 3rd goal on the 19th min. (3:03 to 1:03)
Desmonds scored three more points in this half with Stan Divane, and Maurice O'Connell, both scoring from play and Cian O'Connor added a pointed free to finish the half on 1:06.
St.Marys through their great work rate and attacking play added 5 more points in this half from Niall O'Driscoll, Anthony Cournane and 2 points from Dan Daly, and the St.Mary's Captain Conor O'Shea scored a point from play and it left the score at half time Desmonds 1:06 St.Marys 3:08.
Well the 2nd half was a different game for the Desmonds but while they are still unfortunately at the bottom of division 1 and they are still looking for their 1st point of the season great credit must be given to them in regard to the way they played in the half as they scored 12 points in the half. This would normally have seen them win any other game.
The 1st 6 points they scored were all from play and all within 11mins on the clock from Thomas Hickey 2 scores and 1 each from Cian O'Connor, Pat Fitzgerald, and with Gearoid Leonard and Cathal Hanifin scoring lovely points each.
St Marys added a point from Jack Daly and at this stage of the game it was only a 3 point lead for the visiting team.
Then the men from Caherciveen upped their game with 2 points from Dan Daly and they then scored their 4th goal against the run of play by Darren Casey and Desmonds Graham O'Connor scored a lovely point from play.
The electronic scoreboard now read 4:11 to 1:13 after 15mins gone in the half.
Then for the next 5 mins we saw the home side up the pressure and the visiting team try and hold to their 7 point lead but Desmonds added 4 points from Thomas Hickey ( 1 Pl. 3 Frees ) it was now 1:17 to 4:11 29th min of the game.
Darren Casey of St.Mary's added an insurance point from play on the 30th min and we saw Cian O'Connor score the last Desmonds score from a free kick in injury time and then referee Mike Hennessy blew up the game , to see the men from South Kerry travel home with the spoils on the final score on the evening.
Castleisland Desmonds 1:18 St.Marys Caherciveen 4:12.

St Marys V Castleisland Desmonds
Sunday 30th April 2.30pm in Con Keating Park
Castleisland Desmonds visited Con Keating Park on Sunday 30th April for round 2 of the Castleisland Co-Op Mart Intermediate championship. The last time these teams clashed it made for one of the best games of the 2015 Intermediate Championship. Both teams were missing key players, St Mary's Denis Daly and Castleisland Maurice Hickey. The day was dry but a strong wind prevailed throughout. The visitors were fast off the mark with two points within the first five minutes. Sean Cournane had his goal chance blocked in the fifth minute but was rewarded a few minutes later when he did reach the back of the net. Castleisland proceeded to score 1-4 without reply before Anthony Cournane scored St Mary's first point in the 23rd minute. For the rest of the half Castleisland remained dominant, however a free from Bryan Sheehan and an injury time goal from Darren Casey were all that St Mary's could muster. Half time score was 2-2 to 2-8. Paul O'Donoghue was fast off the mark in the opening minutes of the second half with two points from play before Bryan Sheehan hit the back of the net. Castleisland were at a disadvantage when centre forward Tomás Lynch saw his second yellow card. St Mary's used this to their advantage and scored 2 points courtesy of Anthony Cournane and Darragh O'Sullivan. A superb piece of teamwork led to Dan Daly scoring a fourth goal for St Mary's. A clear lead for St Mary's in the last quarter did not deter Castleisland, who kept trying to get back in the game. Points from Cian O'Connor, Tomás Hickey, Kieran Brennan and Graham O'Connor were in vain as Dan Daly and Darren Casey pointed their own. Full time score was 4-10 to 2-12. St Mary's were best served by Conor O'Shea, Bryan Sheehan and Darragh O'Sullivan.

Milltown Castlemaine v St Mary's (account from Milltown/ Castlemaine Facebook page)
They say goals win games and this was the case today. Milltown Castlemaine had the prefect start with David Roche finishing calmly to the net with almost the first play of the game. Despite this setback St Mary's, with a strong wind at their back calmly made their way back into the game with the next 5 points. St Mary's Sean Curnane was extremely accurate from frees. Milltown Castlemaine were struggling for scores but with 5 minutes left in the half Jerome Flynn jigged into the box and raised a second M/C green flag. The teams traded points with Sean Curnane pointing for St. Mary's and Gavin Horan pointing for M/C to leave the short whistle score M/C 2.01 St Mary's 0.06
A good start is half the battle and M/C struck straight from the throw in with the evergreen Mike Burke punching to the back of the net. The game became very open but M/C's stout defence, not leaving the South Kerry men in on goal, the game became a point for point game. M/C added some fine from David Roche, Derek Twiss, Jonathon O'Sulllivan, Cathal Moriarty, Shane Murphy and a spectacular long distance point from Seamus Dowd. Sean Curnane was equally accurate for St Mary's with a fantastic pointed free from outside the 45 into the strong breeze being the highlight. Referee Paul Hayes contributed to a fine game with an excellent performance and when he whistled for full time Milltown Castlemaine gained the two points on a score of Milltown Castlemaine 3.07 St Mary's Cahirciveen 0.11.
