Laois. Yet another All-Ireland final appearance beckoned, with Cork providing the opposition on 17 November 1912. The game was an extremely close affair with Sim Walton proving himself to be the goal-scoring hero. A speculative Matt Gargan shot also hopped past the goalkeeper to give Kilkenny a narrow 2–1 to 1–3 victory. It was Kelly's fifth All-Ireland medal. In 1913 Kelly won his seventh Leinster title in nine years following a 7–5 to 2–1 victory in a replay against Dublin. The subsequent All-Ireland final on 2 November 1913 saw Kilkenny square up to Tipperary for the second time in five years in the first fifteen-a-side All-Ireland decider. Kilkenny led by 1–4 to 1–1 at half-time and eventually hung on to win on a score line of 2–4 to 1–2. This victory gave Kelly an impressive sixth All-Ireland medal.
