Stars and Dreadnoughts advance to final

Paul Fitzpatrick Kingscourt and Mullahoran will meet in the county SFC final after they came through their semi-finals against Castlerahan and Killygarry respectively. The Stars were devastating against the Ballyjamesduff men, moving the ball at pace and picking off some excellent scores as they sauntered to a 1-16 to 1-6 win. Mullahoran, meanwhile, ground out a win against Killygarry - shock conquerors of Cavan Gaels in the quarter-final - by 0-14 to 1-9. Donal Thomas bagged a super first-half goal but Killygarry could only raise one white flag in that opening half-hour and Mullahoran - whose full-forward Philip Brady rattled the woodwork twice - kept the scoreboard ticking over with a succession of second-half points from Enda O'Reilly, Paul Brady and sub Tomas Nannery.
