Trim continue their winning ways while Killyon look like going back to B.

Trim wont be stopped, Killyon heading South.

Couple of big results around last night, Athboy been turned over by Longwood and BHG continuing winning ways. That puts kilmessan under pressure to qualify. next game between BHG and Athboy will determine top of the group but it looks like BHG will qualify with possibly Athboy.
Big game today for both Na Fianna and Kiltale, fancy Kiltale to come through here.
Fancy Kidalkey tomorrow against ratoath and Dunboyne to beat Dunderry.

In the IHC another win for Kildalkeys second string against Boardsmill,
Rathmolyon have it all to do today today against Drumree who i fancy here. Another loss for the Village would leave it tight gong into the later games.
Navan to beat Kells
Trim to beat Dunboyne
Don /Ash to beat Tones
Kilskyre to beat Kilmessan
Can see Trim's second team qualifying with Kildalkeys second string with Kildalkey possibly going straight into semi final.

Na Fianna very disappointing. Kiltale took over in second half winning it 4-10 to 0-3. Na Fianna played with strong wind in first half, only scored 6 points, 3 dropped short and some bad wides. Kiltale poor in first half but cut loose in the second. They will have bigger tests.

I was at Kiltale last night, great win for the Blackhall Gaels Masters team. Played well and blew kilmessan away last 15-20 minutes.

Predictions - Round 4 Hurling Championships

SHC A

Kiltale vs Killyon - hard to see anything more thank a Kiltale win here. Kiltale by 8
Ratoath vs Na Fianna - could be a close game as Na Fianna playing some good hurling. But Ratoath should have too much. Ratoath by 4
Trim vs Kildalkey - game of the weekend across all grades. Both teams flying at the moment and the winner will top the group. Kildalkey playing well but Trim just look unbeatable at the moment. Trim by 3

SHC B

Dunderry vs Longwood - very ineteresting game after both teams won against the odds in the last round. Will all depend on who wants it more. If the right Longwood side turn up, they will edge that department. Longwood by 3
Clann na Gael vs Blackhall Gaels - top 2 meet to decide who tops the group. Blackhall have been playing great hurling over the first 3 games and CNG showed in the first 2 games why they are one of the favourites to top Group B. Hard one to call. CNG by 2
Dunboyne vs Kilmessan - Dunboyne not firing at the moment and Kilmessan with 2 losses. I think Kilmessan should do enough to win and put Dunboyne into a real relegation dog fight. Kilmessan by 5

IHC A

Boardsmill vs Kells - Only one winner here. Boardsmill by 10+
Kildalkey vs Drumree - big game here. Drumree will test this strong Kildalkey second team's credentails for winning the IHC this year. This will be a great game and I see Kildalkey sneaking it. Kildalkey by 2
Rathmolyon vs Navan O'Mahonys - Great win for the Village the last time out and this is set to continue this weekend. Rathmoylan by 6

IHC B

Wolfe Tones vs Kilmessan - if this game even goes ahead and conceded by Kilmessan, Wolfe Tones to win easy. Wolfe Tones by 10+
Kilskyre/Moylagh vs Trim - should be an interesting game given the lack of game time Kilskyre/Moylagh have had so far. But I expect them to win. Kilskyre/Moylagh by 6
Donaghamore/ Ashbourne vs Dunboyne - I expect Dongh Ash to win this. Donaghmore/Ashbourne by 5

Can someone tell me how a referee from a club is allowed to referee a game between 2 clubs and the result will have an impact on standings of the group and they play the referees club next. I know there are a shortage of referees but surely it can be fixed so this doesn't happen. This is not the first time it has happened this year and has also happened other years.

Four rounds of the IHC after this weekend

Three rounds featured a walkover in IHC B. One in IHC A.

Just brilliant that is.

Remaining games:

SHC A

Kiltale vs Killyon - Kiltale comfortably
Ratoath vs Na Fianna - Na Fianna been going well, but think Ratoath will just have enough - Ratoath by 1
Trim vs Kildalkey - an absolute belter in store. Coin toss but even I can't call it then - draw.

SHC B

Dunderry vs Longwood - Dunderry seem to have a bit of an edge to them, I'll take it for them by 2
Clann na Gael vs Blackhall Gaels - Sneaky game of the week candidate here - Blackhall are on a roll, BG by 2
Dunboyne vs Kilmessan -Dunboyne seem to be in a bit of bother. Kilmessan by 3

IHC A

Boardsmill vs Kells - Kells are heading back to B. Boardsmill by 12+
Kildalkey vs Drumree - As mentioned above, this is the toughest test Kildalkey's seconds will face. Still reckon they pass it. Kildalkey by 4
Rathmolyon vs Navan O'Mahonys - O'Mahonys weren't firing on all cylinders against Kells but still got the win. Rathmolyon will be a lot better. Rathmolyon by 8

IHC B
Donaghamore/ Ashbourne vs Dunboyne - Dunboyne won against Tones but didn't show much against Trim. Don/Ash aren't putting up massive scores. I'll give it to them by 2.

Kells with the shock of the round so far beating Boardsmill by a point. Didn't see that coming.
Big win for Longwood yesterday at Dunboyne in big trouble?

Every having a good pop at killyon. A rural club competing at senior level and going well at junior. A club that has players with 4 different football clubs and another senior hurling in the same small parish. Maybe have a look at the state of hurling in kells, navan, ashbourne, and dunboyne.

Funny way it's worked out for the Kiltale-Killyon game. The winner goes through to the semi final, but the loser is almost guaranteed to win their quarter final and play them again in the semi final anyway.
