About Simonstown Gaels GFC

In 1965 Muhammad Ali was Heavyweight Champion of the World, Lyndon Johnson was in the White House, Sean Lemass was Taoiseach, Martin Quinn was Meath’s full-back, Mick O’Connell was the star man for Kerry, Colm O’Rourke was in high infants over in Leitrim, and Arkle won his second Gold Cup.

Just outside of Navan, meanwhile, a group of lads, led by Joe Clarke of Simonstown and Jimmy Lane of St. Mary’s Park, were making a big decision to start a new football club. They had to get a few locals back from Kilberry and Gibbstown, there were a few ex-O’Mahony’s available, and there were a few other young lads unattached and ‘mad’ for action.

Senior men Div 1 league v St Peter’s Dunboyne

  Simonstown 2—10   (0—6)  Dunboyne 2—13 (0—8)​          The 2024 Senior League  Div I  match in Simonstown on Sunday morning resulted in a narrow win for the visitors Dunboyne.  Luke Caffrey got the hosts a good start  with a point from play  in the first minute. Dunboyne  then took over and recorded 7 points (1f) while Ben Hoey converted a free for Simonstown to leave Dunboyne leading 0—7 to  0—2 after twenty minutes.  The home side had a period of dominance which yielded two Ben Hoey points (1f) and one each from Mark Devlin and Aaron Farrelly.  Dunboyne added two points and went into the dressing at half time  leading  0—8 to 0—6.         Second half started with another Hoey free following a foul on Caffrey.  From the resultant  kick out Luke Caffrey did a wonderful job dispossessing the back and setting  up Aaron Farrelly who finished to the net to put Simons in front  1—7 to 0—8 after 3 minutes.  Ciaran Lenihan then drew the teams level as he converted a free and a forty five  1—7 to 0—10. Aaron Farrelly then  split the posts  with a fine effort which put Simons in front  1—8 to 0—10.​   Dunboyne  upped the ante and scored a goal to give them a 1—10 to 1—8 lead.  Luke Caffrey then pointed from distance for  the Navan men. A Dunboyne attack resulted in them being awarded  a penalty ( a very harsh decision) which was duly put away. They added a point from play immediately afterwards to lead by seven points  2—13 to 1—9 with twenty two second half minutes on the clock.​  Shane Barry with a glorious kicked pass of 30 yds or more found Josh Carolan who sneaked in behind the defense and calmy finished to the net.  Brian Mc Grath posted a point  to leave scoreboard reading Dunboyne 2—13 Simons 2—10. The hosts launched a wave of attacks but the Dunboyne defence stood firm and held on to collect their first league points.          After the match Dunboyne players Cathal Finn, Shane McEntee and Donal Lenihan on behalf of their team made a presentation to Niall Kane for his treatment fund.  Thanks vey much Dunboyne **Simonstown;** Robbie Burlingham, ...Mark Devlin (0—1), Stephen Moran, Aaron Chinchilla,...Brian McGrath(0—1), Josh Carolan(1—0), David McKeever,...Briain Conlon,  Sean Tobin...Jimmy Heaney, Ben Hoey (0—4)3f, Shane McEnery,....Luke Caffrey(0—2), Tadgh Hanrahan, Aaron Farrelly(1—2).... ​\*\*\*Subs\*\*\*    Shane Barry/ T.
