The senior
team were in action on Sunday last against Ballymahon in the All County League
at Fr McGee Park.
We were
defeated on a score line of 1-12 to 3-7. Fielding without Declan Farrell and
Paul Murtagh, the team didn’t get going at all and conceded two soft goals in
the first have that left us training by 6 points at half time (0-5 to 2-6).
We staged a
great come back early in the second half and were pretty much ‘camped’ in the
Ballymahon half for the entire half. We had a number of chances near the end to
get at least a draw but we failed to take any of them. Ballymahon played a very
defensive game putting a lot of men behind the ball during the whole game and
this left them very difficult to break down.
We now must
pick ourselves up to face Clonguish on Sunday next in a game that we need to
win if we are to be serious contenders for the league and give ourselves a big
boost going into the championship.
Team:
G Tonra,
Podge Murtagh, D Murtagh, O McGivney, G Murtagh, D C Reilly, F Kavanagh, N
Farrell, E Farrell, JP Reilly, D S Reilly, A Gormley, B McCabe, D McKeon, T
Doyle.
Following
the senior game, the Division 3 team recorded a good win over Killoe 6 (1-13 –
