Fair play to Kiltale, it has been some season and the work they put into underage is paying dividends. showforit (Meath) - Posts: 156 - 08/12/2014 18:20:12 1677464 Link 0 |
in reality Kiltale should have 3 in a row in the bag now, they were caught badly on the hop by longwood in semi final in 2013. i cant see anyone beating them next year perhaps in the group stage or league but not when it matters. kilmessan are not bad still though, could be a kilmessan v kiltale final. dickie10 (UK) - Posts: 685 - 06/01/2015 17:41:15 1681008 Link 0 |
Think hurling people are getting ahead of themselves if they think Kiltale are unbeatable. Kiltale had a great year in 2014 but on any given day Kilmessan,Kildalkey,Dunboyne and Killyon can all beat Kiltale. All these teams should haven't beaten Kiltale last year but didn't, Kiltale rallied, got the "rub of the green" in most games last year and won, fair dues to them. It takes a special team to dominate for a few years. Athboy and Boardsmill did it in the 70's, Trim and Kilmessan 90's & 00's and Kildalkey in 10's, all these teams won 3 in a row along with league and minor titles. So IMO Kiltale are a very good team but have a few years to go before proving themselves to be in the same bracket as the "greats" as previously named over the years.

Redman i think you abit jealous there to be honest, Kiltale only lost 1 game in all compitions and it was leinster ... dublinboy (Dublin) - Posts: 23 - 08/01/2015 12:18:29 1681440 Link 0 |
Kiltale's dominance this year was not just at senior level. it was at under 21 and minor also. You cant be certain going into next year but they have to be strong favorites for next years SHC. I would put them in the same bracket as the great teams mentioned in the previous post. They have players from Summerhill on their teams now whereas that wouldnt have been the case in the past and those players have been well developed by Kiltale management so they are much stronger than they have ever been. In my opinion 3 in a row is more likely than unlikely. Trim and Na Fianna to be their biggest challengers in the coming years. trim1 (Meath) - Posts: 162 - 08/01/2015 18:10:01 1681572 Link 0 |
Dublinboy I think you will find that last year killyon knocked kiltale out of the Brendan Davis cup and also bet them in the league. Trim also drew with the in the league. They are not as unbeatable as some might suggest. Kilmessan Kildalky are not far behind and Killyon or Dunboyne on their day could catch them like Longwood in 2013. hurlinglad15 (Meath) - Posts: 36 - 31/03/2015 16:48:10 1709019 Link 0 |
Most of the kiltale team is made up of Summerhill lads so it's very hard for other clubs with just there parish picks to compete with that Header33 (Meath) - Posts: 233 - 01/04/2015 18:27:23 1709574 Link 0 |

Not to be not picky but for the starting 15 there were 2 summerhill guys, and not to mention the lads coming of the bench and involved in the panel! footballonly123 (Meath) - Posts: 1 - 02/04/2015 15:25:25 1709864 Link 0 |
