Kilrossanty will contest their first Waterford SFC final in eighteen years following a 3-16 to 0-12 victory over An Rinn yesterday.

Goals from Pa Cunningham (2) and Paul Whyte either side of the break propelled the Lemybrien based outfit to a comfortable thirteen-point success at Fraher Field, three weeks after they dumped out reigning champions and near rivals Stradbally.

Waterford captain Whyte, who shot 1-3, once again played a pivotal role for the winners despite being advised to stop playing due to a persistent hip injury. County midfielder Tommy Prendergast was also outstanding for Kilrossanty, who led by 2-9 to 0-7 at half-time.

Kilrossanty are set to meet Ballinacourty or The Nire in the decider on October 14.
