Best game of club football I've seen in a while last night in Trim, will Simonstown finally do it this year? Once again I was impressed with their number 6 and 7, Conlan and Kane,

And bet they were, good lad ;).

Nash really got the better of Ronan Jones. I expect it to be the other way. Simonstown size around the middle killed Dunboyne and was the winning of the game

Nobody from Dunboyne was particulary impressive, I was expecting Dunboyne to be better. Another great game in Trim this evening. Kells were impressive, should be great semi-finals next week.

Don't think Jones was fit to play but at that stage it's do or die. Nash is an absolute rolls royce of a player though, what an asset he would have been for Meath. Very disappointing for Dunboyne we didn't do it when it really counted this year but full credit to Simonstown. Colm O Rourke is clearly an exceptional manager also and don't think there'd be many that'd begrudge them a Keegan as unexpected it might have seemed, fair play.

Wasn't a classic but Simonstown deserve to be in the final. Kells lost an awful lot of ball from their own kick-outs and their marking was poor. Simonstown should have won by a lot more considering how much of the ball they had.

No one it was brutal game, Conlon looked ok early on Nash did ok considering he a minor, Neill Kane did alright fo STG for Kells the 2 Reilly looked useful
Simonstown sub Brennan won it for them. Kells should have stolen it at the end

Not too many stood out today, O'Rourke won a lot of ball in Midfield and I thought Kane was good again, surely he will be given a chance with the county? Mattimoe was good in the first half but went out of it a bit in the second half. I'm not a Simonstown supporter but how is Micahel Brennan not starting for Simonstown?

As far as Ash are concerned job done.Really interesting final now,especially as both teams met in the Feis Cup final and the drama there.Whoever wins it will earn it.Hopefully we do it though!

I have to say I've never seen a group of players so down beat after winning a championship semi final, such an anti climax, barely any of the Don /Ash players cheered or celebrated the win.

Was a weird moment after the final whistle sounded.

To be honest they were disappointed with the performance,but it is also a case of job not done yet.You always felt Ash would win the game in the second half,the players probably felt that from a long way off too.They are very hungry to win this championship.It is going to be a huge battle in the final but that is what you want.
