Kevin McManamon ran riot as St. Jude's defeated St. Brigid's by 3-11 to 0-12 at O'Toole Park this afternoon to set up a Dublin SFC semi-final against St. Oliver Plunkett's/Eoghan Ruadh.

The under-rated Dublin attacker hit 3-5, including 1-4 in the opening half as the Tymon North side eased to a 1-7 to 0-1 half-time lead, with Brigid's solitary first half score coming in stoppage time from Daire Plunkett.

McManamon had completed his hat-trick within seven minutes of the restart to leave Tony McEntee's charges down and out. Leitrim captain Emlyn Mulligan was accurate from placed balls for Brigid's, but the result was never in any doubt.

In the second quarter-final at O'Toole Park, Emmet O Conghaile and Declan O'Mahony were among the scorers as Ballyboden St. Enda's saw off Lucan Sarsfields on a 0-14 to 0-9 scoreline. 'Boden, who led by 0-10 to 0-4 at the interval, have been drawn against All-Ireland club champions St. Vincent's in the semi-final.
