In the twinkling of an eye Cian Phelan had the green flag waving down the other end after Jake Byrne codded the St Martins defence creating a huge amount of space for the centre forward to goal to leave it 1-3 to 1-2 at the water break. James O’Neill landed a cracker of a goal feeding off a Aaron Farrell break the dynamic full forward cracked the ball home of his weaker foot. Michael a Keane & Jim Conlon swapped points before a searing solo run from Colin Hayes had the saints back in front. The opening exchanges were frantic with Michael Ruane converting a placed ball to put the home side ahead before Thomas Langton responded with a fine point. Those who think football may not be at a high level in the county would simply need to take a view of this 60 minutes to realise their is quite some talent within Kilkenny. St Martins landed their first Duggan Steel U-15 Roinn B Football title since 2000 in a well contested final played under lights in Muckalee which was in excellent condition considering the time of year.
