Great second half effort fails to save the Saffrons

Leinster Senior Hurling Championship – Round 5

Antrim 1-16 Offaly 3-15

Sunday 25 May

Report from Brendan McTaggart

When James McNaughton found the back of the Offaly net in the 65th minute, it looked like the unthinkable was going to become thinkable.  Reduced to 14 men, playing into a gale force wind and trailing by four points at half time, the odds were stacked against the Saffrons but McNaughton’s strike left the minimum between the sides.

As it was, however, it was the last score Antrim would record and Offaly got out of jail.  Five points the difference at the end of a pulsating 70 minutes that saw Antrim play with incredible intensity, tactically astute after the early dismissal of Niall O’Connor and a game plan that made little of the conditions that had a massive impact on the game.

On a day that required heroes, Antrim had plenty in a Saffron shirt.  Conor Boyd and Joe Maskey excellent in the half back line while Stephen Rooney put in his best performance in the county shirt – highlighted by a quite outstanding block to deny Brian Duignan a certain goal late in the game. 

Gerard Walsh excelled in the middle of the park while Scott Walsh and the returning Keelan Molloy was a real thorn in the side of the Faithful County.  James McNaughton top scored with 1-8 and another superb performance in attack but it was the concession of first half goals playing with the wind that hurt the Saffrons cause.

Brian Duignan top scored for Offaly with 1-7, his goal coming in the second minute of the game while Charlie Mitchell was always a serious threat.  Donal Shirley patrolled as the extra man in defence and played the role to perfection while Dan Ravenhill (penalty) and Killian Sampson scored the other majors – Sampson with the score that would effectively seal the win for Offaly.

Playing with the wind in the first half, Antrim got off to the worse possible start when Duignan found the back of the net.  Getting on the end of a cross field ball from Mitchell, Duignan swung his hurl one handed and smashed the sliotar beyond Ryan Elliott.

The Antrim response was swift with Nigel Elliott firing over.  It could have been better with half a goal chance but Elliott elected to take his point.

A McNaughton free in the 6th minute brought Antrim to within one point when they were reduced to 14 men.  Niall O’Connor was penalised for an off the ball infringement with Charlie Mitchell and referee Michael Kennedy flashed the red card. 

Despite the set-back, Antrim responded well.  Points from Keelan Molloy and Gerard Walsh either side of a Duignan free brought them level again before the home side were awarded a penalty in the 14th minute.  Mitchell fouled in a scramble with Dan Ravenhill expertly finding the back of the net.

Antrim continued to make inroads into the Offaly defence and a brace of McNaughton frees was the Saffrons answer to the Offaly goal but when the home side hit three points unanswered from Dan Ravenhill, Duignan (free) and Shirley, it put four between the sides with a little over 12 minutes of the half remaining.

A quick fire brace from Molloy and a gargantuan point from Paddy Burke was followed by McNaughton’s fourth free of the half to bring the sides level but the home side finished the half strongly.

Points from Shirly and Dan Ravenhill were followed by scores from Duignan (free) and a brace from Mitchell with Gerard Walsh the solitary response from Antrim to leave the half time score 2-9 to 0-11.

It was going to take something special for Antrim to save their McCarthy Cup status such was the standing of the game at half time.  McNaughton did manage to score the first point of the second half soon after the restart but a trio of scores from Duignan (two frees) and Dan Bourke put six between the sides.  Indeed, were it not for the brilliance of Elliott between the sticks, it would have been more but he deflected Bourke’s effort over the bar.

Scott Walsh and Duignan swapped scores as Offaly maintained their six point advantage but Duignan’s free would be their last score for 20 minutes as Antrim controlled the contest with their running game.

Playing into the wind, they played with precision, pace and power to run at the Offaly defence and while scoring chances were at a premium, Offaly struggled and with every passing minute the Saffrons grew in confidence.  A trio of frees from McNaughton came in that space of time with Mitchell splitting the uprights with a brilliant score from under the stand and not much angle to work with.

Antrim were throwing everything at Offaly and with the clock ticking into the final five minutes they finally got a break.  McNaughton’s major came after a bit of a scramble but his strike was as sweet as anything seen during the game and gave Mark Troy no chance between the sticks. 

The momentum was with the Saffons and when Rooney produced a miracle block moments later to deny Duignan with the goal at his mercy, it looked like the stars were aligninig.

It wasn’t to be however.  Offaly’s third goal proved to be a hammer blow and while there’s no disputing the finish by Killian Sampson, Antrim could well be aggrieved by the award of a two man ball and not a free in their favour in the build up to the goal.

Duignan took his tally to 1-7 for the match with his seventh free and while Antrim continued to push, they couldn’t breach the Offaly defence one more time.

A disappointing result at the end of a disappointing campaign but this performance was outstanding.  Full of guts, determination and a never-say-die desire that makes this defeat even harder to muster.  Offaly maintain their status in the Liam McCarthy as the Joe McDonagh Cup beckons for the Saffrons.

Weather fails to dampen rampant Casement’s

ACFL Division 1

 Casements 1-16

Aghagallon 0-6

PHOTOGRAPHS: Colleen Webb

The wet weather didn’t put off a decent crowd gathering at Kelly Park for this round 10 league game. 

Despite the conditions and both sides being down a number of regular starters, it turned out to be an entertaining game with the Portglenone men in control throughout. 

The home side signalled their intent early on racing into a 5 point lead, with Paddy Kelly and Ciaran McAleese pointing and full forward Aidan McAleese finding the net, 10 minutes into the contest. 

Portglenone were dominating the exchanges around the middle allowing them to further add to their lead as the first half progressed with Ronan Kelly particularly impressive with four 2 pointers. 

Aghagallon rallied towards the end of the half and managed to get on the scoreboard to leave the half time score Casements 1-9 Aghagallon 0-2.

The visitors made a strong start to the second half landing the first two scores of the half  before debutant Casements Keeper John McAtamney, in for the injured Kevin Mullan, pulled off a great save to keep Aghagallon at bay. 

This save effectively ended the visitor’s chance of gaining a foothold in the game as the home side regained control with Ruairi Hagan, Paddy Kelly, Ronan Kelly and the McAleese brothers, Aidan and Ciaran adding to the point’s total.

This win moves Casement’s onto 15 points and up to 4th place in the table while Aghagallon can take some consolation that results elsewhere as they look over their shoulder at the chasing pack but things should improve when they get their county players back on board.

Moneyglass relentless charge continues

ACFL Division 2

Glenavy 0-12 Moneyglass 1-15

St. Ergnat’s Moneyglass’ relentless charge back to division 1 continued at Chapel Hill on Saturday when they had little difficulty in overcoming the challenge of St. Joseph’s Glenavy.

Indeed this game was well and truly over, 10 minutes into the second half when Sean Boyd fired home the only goal of the game for the Marrion Hill side to put them 10 points ahead.

The home side finished well with three 2pointers but by the time they got going it was too late and those scores only served to put a better look on the final score-line.

Tyler Cassidy, Colum Duffin 0-2 and Paul Duffin shot the visitors into a 0-4 to 0-0 lead by the 7th minute before Fergal Henry finally got the home side off the mark when he pointed a 12th minute free.

Fearghal Duffin, Colum Duffin and Ronan Campbell extended the St. Ergnat’s lead to six by the 16th minute with Henry replying with his and his side’s second point from another free in the 22nd minute.

Matthew Lawlor in the Glenavy goals pulled off a good save as the visitors threatened to over-run their opponents before Connor O’Kane extended the Moneyglass lead with a good point.

The home side finally raised their first white flag from play when Dominic Gallagher split the posts with three minutes remaining to the break and Fergal Henry followed suit to give his side a much needed lift going into the half time break.

The Chapel Hill side failed to build on their first half finish however and after Tiernan McCormick and Fergal Henry exchanged early points, it was visitors Moneyglass who again took control.

Tyler Cassidy, Connleth McCann, Tiernan McCormick and Cassidy again rattled off four quick fire points and when Sean Boyd finished a slick build up to the Glenavy net in the 10th minute it was as good as over.

Kevin McCann added a point before Finn Shannon finally got St. Joseph’s second point of the half from a well struck ‘45’ with 17 minutes gone and it finally brought some response from the men in Orange.

Fergal Henry 2pt free, Darragh Moore with a fine 2 pointer from play and Henry with another 2pt free in the 26th minute closed the gap to five with four minutes of normal time remaining but that would be as close as they got.

The final score of the contest fell the way of St. Ergnat’s Tyler Cassidy as he sent over in time added on to bring matters to conclusion as their march back to the top flight continues at pace.

They have been matched all the way to date from Patrick Sarsfield’s who were given a much sterner test before overcoming the challenge of St. Enda’s at the bear Pit, that one ending 2-14 to 2-13.

When they last met…a look at the last three Antrim v Offaly games

When they last met….

Saffrons Suffer Offaly Defeat

Allianz National Hurling League

Division 1B

Antrim 0-17 Offaly 2-26

Sunday 9 February

Brendan McTaggart reports from Glenisk O’Connor Park, Tullamore

And the mystery of Antrim’s ‘away day’ blues continue.  On an afternoon that promised plenty, it transpired to be a largely forgettable journey to the Faithful County as the Saffrons succumbed to their second defeat of their league campaign.

It was a difficult watch for the vast majority of the 70 plus minutes with Antrim contributing a worrying amount to their own downfall.  I didn’t take note of the number of turnovers either forced or unforced but it can’t have made for pretty reading for the Saffrons as Offaly romped to a comfortable and thoroughly deserving win.

Yet, with seven minutes of the first half remaining, the home side led by just two points.  Offaly did have the lion’s share of possession and did the majority of the hurling in that opening 20 odd minutes but Antrim were plugging away and Ryan Elliott performing his own heroics between the sticks with two brave, brilliant and bewildering saves.  Roy Keane might say that: ‘He’s a keeper, it’s his job’ but Antrim’s netminder produced the unimaginable.

In the seven minutes and a few more of injury time that followed, Offaly hit 1-5 without reply to leave 10 between the sides and another giving Antrim another indication if it were needed, that if you take your eye off the ball at this level, you get punished.

Brian Duignan put in another top performance for Offaly with a near faultless display from frees and open play while Charlie Mitchell was a real handful for the Antrim defence at full forward.  The impish abilities of Daniel Bourke were evident throughout while Killian Sampson and Dan Ravenhill’s goals added gloss to the score board.

Defensively, it was a tough for Antrim.  They were rocked by the absence of Conall Bohill who was replaced by Joe Maskey in the starting 15 while Gerard Walsh’s game lasted 13 minutes.  Offaly’s ability to create space and pull the Antrim defence into places they just didn’t want to go was bewildering.  Speed, agility, movement, they had it in spades.  Antrim on the other hand looked like a team who were drained of confidence and lost among a swathe of a slick Offaly side who were in no mood to let a stuttering Saffron side off the hook.

James McNaughton continued his good form with nine white flags while Keelan Molloy top scored from open play with three points.  Molloy showed glimpses of his mesmeric brilliance but it was all too fleeting as Antrim struggled.  Nigel Elliott worked his socks off again along with Joe Maskey but there were too many in Saffron not leaving Tullamore with plus marks as Offaly cruised….

Johnston major seals Faithful victory for Saffrons

Antrim 3-22 Offaly 2-24

McDonagh Cup

16th April 2022

Brendan McTaggart reports from Corrigan Park, Belfast

Antrim left it late in the day on Saturday afternoon to seal an opening day win in the McDonagh Cup.  Conor Johnston’s second goal coming in the fifth minute of injury time proving to be the decisive score as the Saffrons edged past the challenge of Offaly.

To say this was a rollercoaster for 70 minutes would be an understatement.  You would think as an Antrim supporter we would get used to this by now but Corrigan Park hosted another intense battle with two sides giving everything they had.

Offaly came with a point to prove and were certainly a different animal from two weeks ago.  Antrim exploited gaping holes in their defence in Navan and looked like scoring a goal at every opportunity but Michael Fennelly and his team learned from that 70 minutes.  Any sights of Stephen Corcoran’s goals were hard earned or coming through pieces of quality play. 

In a bruising encounter, Domhnall Nugent gave everything he had for the Saffrons with he and Joe Maskey shouldering a lot of the heavy hits Offaly could give.  Some curious refereeing decisions going against both men or no calls at all being given that left plenty in attendance scratching their head.  Conal Cunning was once again mesmeric from frees with eight of his 10 points coming from placed ball while the goals came from the two Conor’s – Johnston and McCann.

Defensively Antrim will be disappointed with the two goals conceded but Paddy Burke shone at half back with Ryan McGarry also having a good game.

Antrim started superbly and scored the opening three points of the game inside the opening four minutes but Offaly were getting joy from utilising short poc-outs and developing chances through the lines.  The Saffron’s were slow in responding to Offaly’s game plan in a half that was played largely on the visitors terms.  Eoghan Cahill their main scoring threat with the Birr star capable of scoring from anywhere inside 70 yards as his overall performance showed……

Job Done.  Saffrons Remain in Division One

Allianz Hurling League Division One

Relegation Play Off

Antrim 2-24 Offaly 2-17

Saturday March 26, 2022

Report by Brendan McTaggart

26 March 2022; Keelan Molloy of Antrim celebrates after scoring his side’s second goal during the Allianz Hurling League Division 1 Relegation Play-off match between Antrim and Offaly at Páirc Tailteann in Navan, Meath.

Relief, elation, euphoria, job done.  A mix of emotions at the full time whistle in Pairc Tailteann as Antrim secured their Division One status for 2023.  It was the performance Darren Gleeson and his backroom needed to get the result the county yearned and the Saffrons delivered in spades.  10 points the difference and a score line that maybe flattered the Faithful County by the end of the 70 minutes.  Conal Cunning top scoring with nine of his 10 points coming from frees as he took over that responsibility from the injured Neil McManus while Ciaran Clarke looked back to his best with 0-4 to his name.  James McNaughton and Keelan Molloy with the other majors for the Saffrons as they reaped from their attacking play under the sun in Navan.

Antrim looked like they could score goals at will in the opening half with McNaughton’s 4th minute major settling any nerves in the Saffron camp.  Offaly relied on scores from distance with Eoghan Cahill and Jason Sampson the main protagonists and going into the final couple of minutes of the first half, the sides were tied on 1-9 to 0-12.

Antrim finished the half with a saffron coloured flourish however with Clarke and Molloy raising the white flag before Domhnall Nugent and Conal Cunning combined to release Molloy for the Saffrons second major of the game with what was the last action of the opening half.

Offaly rallied at the start of the second half with 1-2 in the opening seven minutes.  The Saffrons were reduced to 14 men with Niall O’Connor black carded in an incident that saw Cahill score form a penalty but Antrim regrouped to control the second half.

Defensively they had Offaly’s number with the half back line resolute and helping to create pressure up front by forcing turn overs. 

Antrim outscored Offaly five points to one in a 10 minute period that effectively saw them build an unassailable lead.  Huge frees from McNaughton and Cunning while Joe Maskey could have easily found the back of the net with his drive in that same period of time while Conor McCann’s 53rd minute point under the old stand at Pairc Tailteann was worthy to grace any pitch in the country.

Cahill’s accuracy from placed ball kept the Faithful County’s hopes alive but another four unanswered points and a brilliant save from Corcoran to deny Cunning a major put Antrim eight ahead with as many minutes remaining on the clock.

Offaly were reduced to 14 men for the last five minutes with Joey Keenaghan receiving a second yellow card and the Saffrons extended their lead to 11 points with Eoin O’Neill and Cunning (two).  Antrim’s numerical advantage was gone when O’Connor was sent off in injury time and while Antrim looked home and dry, Offaly and Cahill kept them on edge in injury time.  The Offaly talisman firing to the back of the net from a 21 yard free with a vicious drive to beat Ryan Elliott in the Antrim goals.

Antrim responded with Seaan Elliott winning a penalty, Eimhin Kelly black carded for his challenge and while Clarke found the back of the net, he was adjudged to have crossed the 21 before striking and his major was disallowed.

It mattered little however in what was the last action of the game.  A third year at the top table of hurling beckons for the Saffrons while Darren Gleeson and his backroom team will turn their attention to another assault on the Joe McDonagh Cup.

Creggan keep in touch with leaders Cargin

ACFL Division 1

Creggan 3-15 St. John’s 2-9

Kickham’s Creggan kept in touch with leaders Cargin following this win over visitors, St. John’s in Creggan on Saturday evening.
They certainly didn’t get it all their own way against a St. John’s side in the process of rebuilding and without their county players, Conor Hand and Paddy McBride.
In an entertaining game of football where Sam Maguire was pulling the strings in the home defence and Matthew Rodger’s proving a willing target in attack the home side led by a point at half time despite playing against the wind in the first half.
Creggan kicked 3 points in a row from Kevin Small, Ruairi McCann and Conor Johnston as the home side started well but in typical St John’s fashion they came back with a goal from Andy McGowan in the 17th minute and a point from Conchur Adams to briefly take the lead.

Andy McGowan (14) fires home St. John’s opening goal


A fine goal from Shea McCann, five minutes later when he climbed to palm home a Conor Johnston delivery, restored Kickham’s advantage only for the Johnnies to come back with a super 2 pointer from the dangerous Conchur Adams and another point from Odhran McAuley.
Creggan finished on top and Jamie McCann kicked the last 2 points of the first half to give his side a 1 point lead at half time and at this stage it looked anybody’s game.

HT: Kickhams 1-05 to St John’s 1-04.

With the wind behind them Creggan made a quick start to the second half and Kevin Small pointed inside 30 seconds but Conchur Adams responded for St John’s to close the gap to the minimum once more.
The game was beginning to swing decisively in favour of the Kickham’s however and they hit a purple patch, scoring 1-06 without reply to take control. Substitute Conor Small got the ball rolling as he hit a lovely 2 pointer and points from Ethan Carey-Small and Jamie McCann put them in the driving seat with Mathew Rodger’s weighing in with a goal and 2 points.
St. John’s were still battling hard for every ball and Ryan Mc Nulty and Conchur Adams responded with points but the momentum was now with the home side.
The hard working Fintan Close got his rewards by scoring 2 points either side of a Conor Johnston point to move the home side further ahead.

Creggan’s Sean Duffin breaks clear of Padraig Nugent


The Corrigan Park side kept going and were rewarded with a goal of their own in the 26th minute when Conall Quinn finished from close range after the Creggan defence failed to deal with a high delivery.
It would be as close as the visitors got however as Creggan broke from defence and Mathew Rodger’s scored his second of the night with Conall Quinn replying with a late consolation point for St. John’s.
This win moves Creggan onto 16 points from 10 starts, level with All Saints Ballymena and 4 behind unbeaten Cargin who they entertain on Wednesday the 4th June.
They had fine performers on the evening in Sam Maguire, Jamie McCann, Conor McCann, Kevin Small, Ruairi McCann, Matthew Rodgers and Shea McCann.
St. John’s have 5 points from their 10 starts to date and sit just above the relegation zone but, despite this defeat look to be improving week by week and should have enough to climb up the table.
Ross Hannigan, Padraig Nugent, Ryan McNulty, Enda McGurk, Conchur Adams and Conall Quinn were their best performers on the night.
