Few mistakes here and there cost us the game. Final score: Carnew 2-10, Tinahely 0-9.
Team was: Skinny, Enda, Larry, Bubbles, Tonto, Gavin, Danny, Niall Byrne, and Niall O’Gorman in midfield, Timmy, Willie Quaile, Adam, Bill, Stewart, and the veteran corner-forward Sean Pollard.
Anyone at the game will have seen that Sean was out late the night beforehand celebrating Ireland’s victory as there was a lot of black smoke coming out of him.
