Kilmoyley (Kerry) 4-12
\nMonaleen (Limerick) 0-13<\/p>\n

Jackie Cahill at the Gaelic Grounds, Limerick<\/em><\/p>\n

HISTORY FOR KILMOYLEY at the Gaelic Grounds this afternoon as the Kerry senior hurling kingpins won a game in the AIB Munster club hurling championship for the very first time.<\/p>\n

Kilmoyley, managed by former Clare star Ger \u2018Sparrow\u2019 O\u2019Loughlin\u2019s brother Fergie, saw off Limerick representatives Monaleen by 11 points in the provincial intermediate semi-final.<\/p>\n

Kerry senior captain Daniel Collins led the charge as Kilmoyley set up a final clash with Dan and Maurice Shanahan\u2019s Lismore in a fortnight.<\/p>\n

And Kilmoyley will now aim to go one step further than Kingdom counterparts Ballyduff, who lost Munster intermediate finals in 2011 and 2012.<\/p>\n

Collins was superb in attack, landing 1-7 (including 1-3 from play) while also registering three wides.<\/p>\n

There was also a two-goal haul from corner forward Maurice O\u2019Connor \u2013 one in each half \u2013 as Adrian Royle registered Kilmoyley\u2019s other goal.<\/p>\n

Monaleen suffered with the absences of Brian Geary, recently-appointed to the Limerick senior hurling management team, and injured county star Andrew La Touche Cosgrave.<\/p>\n

But Kilmoyley were worthy winners nonetheless and after staving off a mini Monaleen fightback in the second half, they pushed on for a comfortable win.<\/p>\n

Kilmoyley led by 2-6 to 0-7 at half-time on a bitterly cold afternoon, first half goals from inside forwards Royle and O\u2019Connor boosting their challenge.<\/p>\n

Royle struck the opening goal of the game in the fifth minute, pouncing from close range to get the final touch in a goalmouth scramble.<\/p>\n

And after Monaleen had enjoyed a profitable spell \u2013 with former county senior footballer Ger Collins clipping over a couple of nice points \u2013 Kilmoyley had their second goal in the 14th<\/sup>\u00a0minute, Collins supplying the pass for O\u2019Connor to finish.<\/p>\n

Kilmoyley, despite playing against the breeze, were moving well as Monaleen\u2019s cause wasn\u2019t helped by seven first half wides.<\/p>\n

Their biggest lead of the half was seven points \u2013 2-5 to 0-4 \u2013 before Monaleen cut the interval deficit to five.<\/p>\n

The Limerick men were reliant on Mark O\u2019Dwyer\u2019s free-taking to stay in touch, with Collins adding those brace of scores from play.<\/p>\n

A run of three points after half-time had Monaleen back in contention but they were rocked back on their heels by a fourth Kilmoyley goal, scored by Collins after a sniping run.<\/p>\n

And a fourth goal put the icing on the cake with ten minutes remaining, O\u2019Connor collecting his second to put the seal on a memorable afternoon.<\/p>\n

Scorers for Kilmoyley: Daniel Collins 1-7 (0-4f), Maurice O\u2019Connor 2-1, Adrian Royle 1-0, Joseph McGelligott 0-2, Robert Collins & James Godley 0-1 each.<\/p>\n

Scorers for Monaleen: Mark O\u2019Dwyer 0-8 (7f), Ger Gollins & Shane Mullane 0-2 each, John Nicholas 0-1.<\/p>\n
