As it happened: Nemo v Legion, Commercials v St Joseph's - GAA club tracker

Join us for updates from both Munster senior football semi-finals, live from 2pm.
15 Nov 2015 GOAL FOR COMMERCIALS! Commercials 1-9 St Joseph’s 0-2: Michael Quinlivan fists home Jason Lonergan’s delivery. That’s the game, you feel.
15 Nov 2015 HALF TIME: Nemo Rangers 0-7 Killarney Legion 0-2

That’s all from us. Thanks for reading.

Some more results from across the country:

So that’s it —  it will be Nemo Rangers of Cork versus Clonmel Commercials of Tipperary in the Munster SFC final.

Legion, meanwhile, will have to regroup for their Kerry SFC replay against South Kerry.

Nice move by Legion and Conor Keane goes for goal but blazes it wide.

Commercials 1-13 St Joseph’s 0-3: Jason Lonergan tags on another Commercials point.

Nemo 0-14 Legion 0-8: Shane Martin points and Nemo are seconds away from a place in the Munster final. Richly deserved.

Commercials 1-12 St Joseph’s 0-3: Kieran Malone for Miltown, Pádraig White with a free for Commercials.

Nemo 0-13 Legion 0-7: Tom Moriarty adds another for the Kerrymen but it’s far too little, far too late.

Nemo Rangers 0-13 Legion 0-6: Tomás Ó Sé has hardly put a foot wrong all afternoon but his poor clearance gives Donal Lyne a glorious chance. Nemo keeper Micheal Martin hasn’t had too much to do this afternoon but he makes a magnificent save to tip Lyne’s shot over the bar for a point.

“Commercials will be the first team since Fethard since 2001 to represent Tipperary in a provincial final,” writes Jackie Cahill from Clonmel.

Commercials 1-11 St Joseph’s 0-2: Ian Fahey takes over placed ball duties from Quinlivan and slots over a 45 — Commercials on their way to a first Munster final since 1994!

Commercials 1-10 St Joseph’s 0-2: Padraig White’s classy point stretches Commercials’ lead to 11.

Nemo 0-13 Legion 0-5: Brian Kelly gets a hand to Paul Kerrigan’s effort but it drops to Kevin Fulignati, who points.

BLACK CARD! Black card in Páirc Uí Rinn as well as Legion corner-back Chris Davies is shown to the line.

BLACK CARD! Goalscorer Michael Quinlivan is shown to the line. Commercials are still 10 up though.

Nemo 0-12 Legion 0-5: Barry O’Driscoll kicks another free. That’s five Nemo points from frees today by my count.

That’s the first goal that St Joseph’s have conceded in 2015 championship, Jackie Cahill reports.

GOAL FOR COMMERCIALS! Commercials 1-9 St Joseph’s 0-2: Michael Quinlivan fists home Jason Lonergan’s delivery. That’s the game, you feel.

Nemo 0-11 Legion 0-5: Brilliant playmaking by Chris Davies — he’s the architect as James O’Donoghue scores another.

Nemo 0-11 Legion 0-4: Luke Connolly adds his fourth point of the day from placed balls.

Nemo 0-10 Legion 0-4: Paul Kerrigan pings over his third from play and you get the sense that Nemo are ready to turn the screw here. Legion are floundering.

Nemo 0-9 Legion 0-4: Another gift of a free from the Legion defence who really need to keep their mouth shut. It makes it all too easy for Barry O’Driscoll.

Commercials 0-8 St Joseph’s 0-2: Seanie Malone kicks the opening point of the second half.

Alan Cronin was doing a good job on O’Donoghue but the Nemo corner-back limps off with what looks to be an ankle injury. David O’Donovan on in his place.

Nemo 0-8 Legion 0-4: One of the scores of the afternoon so far as JOD pings over an absolute beauty off his left boot.

Nemo 0-8 Legion 0-3: Legion’s indiscipline costs them again. A free is moved in to about 14 yards and Barry O’Driscoll taps it over.

Nemo 0-7 Legion 0-3: O’Donoghue taps over the free for his first score of the afternoon. Be interested to see how his move inside pans out.

Free in to Legion but looked like there might have been a sniff of a chance for James O’Donoghue before he was fouled.

SECOND HALF: Back underway in Páirc Uí Rinn. JOD is gone in to full forward.

Some more half-times from around the country…

HALF TIME: Nemo Rangers 0-7 Killarney Legion 0-2

Nemo 0-7 Legion 0-2: Legion’s indiscipline costs them dearly. A free is moved up and Connolly taps it over.

HALF TIME: Commercials 0-8 St Joseph’s 0-1

Bit of a scuffle in midfield and both Jonathan Lyne and Paul Kerrigan are shown yellow cards.

James O’Donoghue is fouled, giving Jamie O’Sullivan a chance to cut the gap to three, but the wind catches it and it drops short.

It will be interesting to see what Legion do with James O’Donoghue at the break. He’s not really able to affect the game from the half-forward line with two men marking him. Will they move him inside?

Commercials 0-8 St Joseph’s 0-1: Finally, a point for St Joseph’s. Eoin Cleary gets them on the board.

Commercials 0-8 St Joseph’s 0-0: Quinlivan tacks on another free in Clonmel.

25 minutes in and it has taken that long for Nemo to register their first wide — Luke Connolly the culprit.

Legion skipper Shaun Keane is booked, as is Nemo’s Michael Dorgan. Tempers starting to fray in Páirc Uí Rinn.

Nemo 0-6 Legion 0-2: Another for Kerrigan.

Donal Lyne fizzes a shot across the face of goal but there’s nobody there expect for Nemo’s Colin O’Brien who is back to defend his goal.

Our man in Clonmel, Jackie Cahill, checks in:

Commercials playing very well — big step up from the Newcastle West game. Miltown poor though, four wides.

Commercials 0-7 St Joseph’s 0-0: Jason Lonergan and Jack Kennedy add a point more apiece. St Joseph’s are playing with the breeze in this first half and you really fear for their chances here.

Nemo 0-5 Legion 0-2: Bit of a suspicion that Tom Moriarty touched the ball on the ground but the officials don’t spot it and he points.

Commercials 0-5 St Joseph’s 0-0: Great start by Clonmel — Jason Lonergan and Seamus Kennedy add to two Michael Quinlivan points. They’re five up after a quarter of an hour.

Blow for Miltown as well as Damien Lafferty limps off with hamstring injury, to be replaced by Colin Hehir.

Nemo 0-5 Legion 0-1: Tom Moriarty finally gets Legion on the board but Nemo are very unlucky not to get a goal at the other end. Chris Davies and Brian Kelly combine to deny Paul Kerrigan and the Nemo captain has to settle for a point.

Nemo 0-4 Legion 0-0: Nemo on the other hand are making the most of the little possession they have. Alan Cronin comes up from corner-back and pops over another point.

Legion have the wind at their backs but it’s not exactly their friend. Jamie O’Sullivan’s shot is caught in the breeze and dragged off target. The Kerrymen have lots of ball but have yet to score.

James O’Donoghue makes a dart towards the Nemo goal but he’s crowded out and the chance goes.

Commercials 0-1 St Joseph’s 0-0: An Ian Barnes free opens the scoring in Clonmel.

Nemo 0-3 Legion 0-0: Alan O’Donovan comes up from the half back line and points. Great start by Nemo.

Commercials 0-0 St Joseph’s 0-0: Still no score in Clonmel – Joseph’s are playing with a big breeze in the first half.

Nemo 0-2 Legion 0-0: Luke Connolly slots the 45.

SAVE! Brian Kelly gets his fingertips to Barry O’Driscoll’s shot. Behind for a 45. High ball into the Legion full-back line causing all sorts of problems there.

Looks like Colin O’Brien is dropping back to pick up JOD as well — Nemo double-marking the Kingdom star early on.

Nemo 0-1 Legion 0-0: Luke Connolly kicks the opening score from play. Nemo lead.

Jamie O’Sullivan has a chance for the opening score but puts his free wide.

THROW IN: We’re underway in Páirc Uí Rinn. It looks like Tomás Ó Sé is going to line up on James O’Donoghue — tasty!
