DR. CROKES

EAST KERRY SENIOR LEAGUE we opened our 2020 season on Tuesday night last against local rivals Legion. A largely experimental side played admirably going down on a scoreline 1-12 to 1-09. Leading at half-time 1-06 to 0-07 the concession of a penalty midway through the second half was the ultimate game changer.

Team Shane Murphy, Mark Fitzgerald, Lorcan MacMonagle, Sean Coppinger, Brian Fitzgerald Jason Lyne Cillian Fitzgerald Mark O`Shea Paul Clarke Chris Doncel Gavin O`Shea Cillian Regan Jack Griffin Daithi Casey Bryan O`Shea Kieran Ward Sean Mcgann. Game on Sunday last v Gneevegulia was postponed due to the adverse weather conditions.
