Hard to see anything bar a win for The Downs, but its a derby and Killucan have shown in the last 2 years they are not afraid of The Downs.

Hear Killucan are missing Paul Greville gone on holidays, will be a big loss so fancy the Downscause of that but wont be lot in it again.

Think the Downs will be way too strong for Killucan. The Downs have had an easy run through Championship so far and don't think Killucan have it in them to challenge that

Handy win for Killucan. By far the better team. 2-8 to 0-9.

Well i definently called that one wrong!!! Killucan were without Greville, Barry Nea and Donie Carey and still pulled it off!! The Downs looked very poor at times with some very poor shooting from Cleary in particular. Thought refereeing was poor at times and the standard of football wasn't always the best but Killucan showed great heart. Young Danny Riggs is a one for the future!! Also Alan Doyle and Niall Flanagan played stormers. Shane Leavy was very good at midfield as was Brian Smyth but felt he faded out of it in second half. Cannot understand why Jimmy Conroy was left on the bench for so long. Murtagh was the only one digging deep for the Downs in the middle. It certainly makes for an interesting final round of games with Killucan and Kinnegad fighting for their places in the knockout stages.

League table for SF Championship Div 2
Team P W L D P+ P- Pts
The Downs 4 3 1 0 58 42 6
St Lomans Mullingar 4 3 1 0 61 43 6
Coralstown-Kinnegad 4 2 1 1 54 49 5
Killucan 4 2 2 0 49 44 4
St Malachys 4 1 3 0 34 62 2
Ballinagore 4 0 3 1 41 57 1

Really called that wrong, didn't get to game tonight but it must have been a hugely improved Killucan performance.

Every game is really going to count in the last round. Malachys and Ballinagore will be a very tense affair with the loser sure to be relegted playing a team from the other side which has certainly seen better football played

Killucan fully deserved their win, they were far more up for it than The Downs as they had to win to stay in the championship. The Downs never really played at all but a win against St Lomans will still see them straight into the semi's. Should be interesting match between Killucan and Kinnegad, can Killucan raise their game again against Kinnegad, time will tell!

maroongael77 you're still calling it wrong, St. Lomans are top on scoring difference. Doesn't make much difference now but if they draw with the Downs it will see them into the semi's.

Who plays who in the last round of this group?
Killucan must be quietly confident going into last round with some big players still to return..

The Downs did not play at all last night so I dont think Killucan have anything to brag about!!!!

Yeah your right Gaelicgirl Killucan just turned up and kicked the ball around themselves and had a training session. The Downs gave them a walk over. Cop on to youself woman, this is Killucans 3rd year senior and they haven't yet lost to the Downs, 2 wins and 1 draw in favour of Killucan.

Chops your obviously a Killican bogger,anyway so what ye beat the Downs ,no good if you cant get out of your group

Here Chops you obviously are from Killucan.... Come on the worst team in the group bet Killucan - Malachy's. Killucan always beat the Downs so what. It look like The Downs didnt bother last night because it was only Killucan, sure they probably will be bet by Kinnegad now cos they threw everything at the Downs. Killucan will go nowhere in senior.....

At end of day Killucan won and won well.Yes The Downs are much better than that but still fair play to Killucan.Next game against Kinnegad should be worth watching.
