Na Fianna 2-19 Ballyboden St Enda's 0-9

Brothers Sean and Colin Currie combined in devastating fashion to power Na Fianna to a maiden Dublin SHC title.

Following defeats to Kilmacud Crokes in each of the last two finals, and in the absence of injured captain Donal Burke, the Mobhi Road men looked like they may be up against it as they faced a powerhouse of the capital hurling scene.

But Niall O Ceallachain's side hit 'Boden hard and early at Parnell Park to effectively wrap up victory long before time.

Sean Currie slammed 2-05 in total with both goals coming in the first-half while his brother Colin, who also played for Dublin this year, helped himself to 0-10 in total for a side featuring ex-All-Star Liam Rushe at centre-back.

Ballyboden lost substitute and former Tipperary All-Ireland medallist Timmy Hammersley to a red card just minutes after he came on in the final quarter.

In truth, the damage had all been done by that stage as Na Fianna cantered to a whopping 16-point win over the seven-time champions.

Curiously, it's the first time a team from north Dublin has won the county title since Craobh Chiarain in 2006.

Na Fianna will enter the Leinster club SHC for the first time on November 12 when they meet Westmeath champions Raharney in Mullingar in a quarter-final tie.

A rampant Na Fianna hit the interval with a massive 2-10 to 0-6 advantage and while that looked a near unassailable lead, their supporters didn't dare count their chickens.

They were eight points clear midway through the first-half of their semi-final win over Lucan Sarsfields and saw that lead reduced to just two at one stage in the second-half.

They also enjoyed big leads in both the 2021 and 2022 finals against Kilmacud Crokes only to walk away empty handed and heartbroken on both of those occasions.

It was particularly galling for the north Dublin side two years ago as they were nine points up on Crokes in that 2021 decider with just eight minutes of normal time remaining.

Crokes ended up taking that game to extra-time and eventually winning while Na Fianna blew a four-point second-half lead in last year's decider.

Na Fianna avenged those losses somewhat with a two-point quarter-final win over Crokes this season before hanging tough to take down Lucan.

As for Ballyboden, they knocked out Cuala in the quarter-finals before overcoming St Vincent's after extra-time in the last four.

This was the teams' fourth meeting of the season with 'Boden beating Na Fianna in July's Division 1 league final only to come up short when they met again in the group stage of the championship.

Na Fianna hit the ground running this time with the Curries blasting 2-9 of that 2-10 first-half tally.

Sean netted in the 21st and 26th minutes and finished the half with a terrific 2-3, all from open play.

He did brilliant for his first goal, beating 'Boden defender Stephen O'Connor to a 50-50 ball in the air before cracking the sliotar beyond goalkeeper Conor O'Donoghue.

Five minutes later, AJ Murphy lobbed in a clever pass which was intended for Shane Barrett and when the ball broke kindly to the right Currie pulled first time with a vicious shot that rattled the net.

Sibling Colin, the free-taker, registered six first-half points and also had an 18th minute penalty, following James Madden's foul on Murphy, saved by O'Donoghue.

Poor 'Boden only managed two first-half points from play, scored by Luke McDwyer and Kevin Desmond.

Ballyboden needed a strong second-half showing to turn things around but things actually got worse as they only added three more points. As for Na Fianna, the Curries continued to snipe the one-pointers, extending their lead to a massive 16 points by full-time.

Substitutes Sean Baxter and Gavin King also got on the scoresheet and Ciaran Stacey closed out the scoring for the victorious side.
