A Robbie Kane hat-trick helped North End to a 4-0 success against fellow Premier Division side Moyne Rangers 'A' in Hollygrove.

Five goals from Danny Furlong as Rosslare Rangers recover to beat St. Joseph's
First up in the Diskin Design League quarter-finals saw Rosslare Rangers travel up to Kilmuckridge to play St. Joseph's. Rangers went into the game as bookies' favourites for the league, but the Joey's – off the back of their win over Kilmore in the shield the previous week – stunned their opponents and went in at half-time 4-1 up. Rangers came out a different team in the second-half and showed why they're the most successful team in the league's history as they completely turned the game around to run out 6-4 winners. Danny Furlong was the main man, scoring five, and Aaron Kehoe was also on the scoresheet. Paddy Fennell with three and Mick Farrington netted for the home side. Corach Ramblers entertained Ballymurn in Danescastle and proved far too strong for their opponents, running out 6-2 winners. John Staples and M.J. Doran scored two each with Gareth McCurtin and Jamie Staunton also among the goals. Shane Campbell and Paul Walsh replied for Ballymurn. Gorey Celtic travelled down to Murrintown to play Forth Celtic, fresh off the back of their shock but well-deserved win over Corach in the cup one week earlier. This game went all the way to extra-time but in the end the home side prevailed on a 4-3 scoreline. 'Nibbs' Hayes and 'Patsy' Malone had a double each, with John Lavery (two) and Mark Tyndall scoring for Celtic. Taghmon United beat Cloughbawn in a ten-goal thriller in the last quarter-final, despite an Adam Gracz hat-trick for the losers. The victors' goals came from Cian Rossiter, Pascal Waters, Shane Power, Darragh May, Murt Delaney, John Doyle and Willie McDonald. In the Roche's Bar and Restaurant League Trophy quarter-finals, Crossabeg proved too strong for Duncannon and ran out 4-1 winners. Will McCreevey with two, Barry Coughlan and Fergal Buckley got the goals, with Tommy Quinn managing a late consolation goal for the seasiders. Rosslare Strand made the long journey up to Arklow and, despite playing the game with just ten men, they were extremely unlucky to come out on the wrong side of a 2-1 scoreline. Willie Kavanagh and Joey McCallion scoring for the winners, with Danny O'Reilly getting the Strand goal. Kilmore United welcomed Courtown Hibs to Abbie Troy Park and after a hard-fought game it was the home side who progressed to the semi-final, thanks to two goals from Jay Leniston. Scott Fitzpatrick was on target for Hibs. This weekend will see two double-headers being played on Saturday as the Cup and Shield reach the semi-final stage. Bet XS Shield semi-finals (both 4.30 p.m.): Arklow v. Cloughbawn in Crossabeg; St. Joseph's v. Rosslare Strand in All Blacks. Anthony Rowe Windscreens Cup semi-finals (6.15 p.m.): Courtown Hibs v. Forth Celtic in Cloughbawn; Gorey Celtic v. Rosslare Rangers in All Blacks.
