Munster Club Football: What has become an historic and superb year for Lissycasey Senior Footballers came to an end at Cusack Park on Sunday when they were defeated by Kilcommin of Kerry, in the opening round of the Munster Club Championship.The loss of mid-fielder Michael O'Rourke proved to be every bit as great as had been forcast since he was sent off in the Cusack Cup Final against Doonbeg two weeks earlier.The foundation for many of Lissycasey's victories this year were laid at mildfield where O'Rourke's work rate proved too much for all oposition. Derek Doohan replaced O'Rourke in the only change in the Lissycasey line out from the County Final and Cusack Cup Final. Kilcummin took control from the start and had 2 early points while Lissycasey were struggling to win possessision. When the Lissycasey defence failed to clear their lines at the end of the first quarter Kilcummen pounched and sent the ball to the back of the net. They then added another point to put Kilcummin 1.04 to 0.0. ahead. Twenty two minutes elapsed before Lissycasey opened the scoring with a point from Colin Lynch. The game was in the first minute of injury time when at the end of the first half when Anthony Kelly was fouled in the square and the referee pointed to the penalty spot. Lissycasey Corner back Cathal McMahon came up to take the penalty but the Kilcummin gaolie atoned for the foul with a great save. Paul Nagle then pointed to leave the half time score Kilcummin 1.04 Lissycasey 0.02. For the second half Lissycasey brought in Tadhg Kelly instead of Senan Hayes and moved Colin Lynch to center forward. Kilcummin took up where they left off and and scored 3 points inside the the first ten minutes to streatch their lead to eight points. Tadgh Kelly had Lissycasey's first point of the half twelve minutes in and two minutes later Danny Lynch shot pass the goalie to rattle the Kilcummin net. Two Lissycasey points followed from Michael Slowey and Martin Daly and now Lissycasey were just two points behind. Try as they did Lissycasey failed to maintain this scoring rate and in fact did not score again while Kilcummin added two more points to their total.Four minutes from the end a Michael Slowey effort inched wide as Francis Hayes tried to get a touch that might have turned the ball into the net. However this was not to be.  The Final Score was Kilcummin 1.09 Lissycasey 1.05. Lissycasey: Joe Hayes. Cathal McMahon, Sean Hill, Michael Melican, Cathal Hill, Colin Lynch, James Kelly, (Capt) Derek Doohan, Anthony Kelly, Alan Nagle, Danny Lynch, Senan Hayes, Paul Nagle, Martin Daly, Michael Slowey, Subs: Tadhg Kelly for Senan Hayes.

County Senior Football Championship 2006: Lissycasey have qualified for the Clare County Senior Football Final on October 29th 2006 where their opponents will be Eire Og, Ennis. Lissycasey defeated County Champions St Senan's Kilkee on a score line of 1.13 to 2.06 in a very exciting game played at Miltown on Saturday Oct 7th. Lucky to survive in the Competition a few weeks back, Lissycasey turned in a very impressive display to score a fully merited victory over Kilkee and qualify for the Clare Senior Championship final for only the second time in the clubs history. Great redit must be given to the Lissycasey defence which was excellent throughout.Playing with the aid of the breeze in the opening half they raced into a quick lead when Colin Lynch and Martin Daly combined for Daly to open the scoring.  Daly provided for corner back and team Captain Michael Melican, who came upfield to point before Daly landed the score of the game and indeed the score of the season. Anthony Kelly followed with a point and the winners were 4 clear at the end of the quarter. Scores followed from Martin Daly, & Paul Nagle to make it 0.07 to 0.0 Kilkee got their first score in the 24th minute. Then added another  before Martin Daly scored 2 more to leave the half time score at 0.09 to 0.02. Kilkee made changes in the second half and thus dominated the opening stages . at the three quarted stage the score read 0.11 to 0.05.  Then David Russell and Senan Hayes exchanged points before Danny Lynch  landed a magnificent effort for the winners to restore the 7 point lead they held at half time. 2 Minutes of normal time remained when a Denis Russell delivery found Gearoid Lynch unmarked inside the defence and he shot past Joe Hayes to give Kilkee a glimmer of hope. A minute later Lissycasey were on their way to the final. Joe Hayes kickout was won by Michael O Rourke and his superb delivery into the wind  put Martin Daly clear and the full forward capped a tremendious display with an excellent goal. To their credit Kilkee fought on and David Russell goaled 2 minutes into added time just before the final whistle. Thw winners defence excelled with the half back trio of Cathal McMahon, James Kelly & Alan Nagle dictating matters. Anthony Kelly & Michael O Rourke controlled matters at Mid Field while up front Senan Hayes & Paul Nagle stretched the Kilkee defence on many occasions. Colin Lynch played a crucial role particularly in the second half when he dropped back to help the defence against the wind. Time after time he made  tremendois runs from defence to set up scores on a day when Brian Casey, Joe Hayes and team Captain Michael Melican made valuable contributions. Lissycasey's victory gives them a place in the final for the second time in their history and it comes in the season in which they are celebrating their 40th birthday. Founded in 1966 , the club gained senior status in 1994 when they won the Intermediate title defeating Eire Og in the final.  In 1998 Lissycasey contested the Senior Final for the 1st time and they lost out to Doonbeg in a replay. Team: Joe Hayes. Michael Melican,Tadhg Kelly. Brian Casey. Cathal McMahon, James Kelly. Alan Nagle. Anthony Kelly. Michael O'Rourke. Danny Lynch. Colin Lynch.Senan Hayes. Paul Nagle. Martin Daly. Senan Pyne. Subs: Cathal TAlty for Senan Pyne. Gerry Moran (blood Sub)for Cathal Talty. Scorers: Martin Daly 1.08 Anthony Kelly 0.01.Michael Melican 0.01.Paul Nagle 0.01.Senan Hayes 0.01.

County Senior Football Championship 2006. Lissycasey Drew with Sh Gaels in a dramatic end to the Senior Football 1/4 final which was  hampered by driving rain, and played at Doonbeg on Saturday 16th Sept. A last minute goal from Michael O Rourke in extra time saw Lissycasey level the game on a score line of Sh Gaels 0.10 Lissycasey 1.07. Fortunate to be just three points in arrears when they won a 45 in the third minute of injury time,there appeared to be little chance of Lissycasey staying in the race for the 2006 clare Senior Football championship title. However Martin Daly's free was flicked to the net by midfielder Michael O Rourke, leaving the Gaels wondering how they hadn't won this tie. For most of the hour Shannon Gaels dominated and while Lissycasey had narrowed the margin to the minimum with six minutes remaining, two John Dillon efforts had put the Gaels three clear by the end of normal time. They could and indeed should have been well ahead at this stage but Lissycasey Goalkeeper Joe Hayes had denied them on a number of occasions. Four minutes from the end when they were ahead by a point Padraig Neylon Sh GAels was put through and with only Hayes to beat he tried for goal only to see his shot well stopped. The Gaels hit back for a brace of points but that last gasp finish earned Lissycasey a fortunate draw. Lissycasey: Joe Hayes.Senan Hayes. Michael Melican.Brian Casey.Cathal Talty,James Kelly.Alan Nagle.Tadhg Kelly. Michael O Rourke.Danny Lynch. Anthony Kelly. Cathal McMahon.Paul Nagle. Colin Lynch.
