Under 16 County League Div 7
Cromane 8-3 Austin Stacks B 0-12
Having witnessed the A’s being comprenhensively beaten the previous night our B’s travelled with a much depleted squad to Cromane on Thursday evening. In truth we were very competitive in this game up until the final quarter when the concession of yet another goal finally dented our confidence. Ciaran Flanagan dominated proceedings in the opening half and we led early on with points from Niall Carroll Cane, Flanagan and the impressive Shane Flaherty. However at the other end we were leaking goals at will with Cillian Comerford helpless against a quality Cromane attacking unit. Richard Hurley was also having a fine game at midfield and we trailed 4-1 to 0-7 at half time. We started the second half a much similar vein with Adam Barrett flying at wing forward and added points from Hurley, Flan and two frees from Shane Flaherty. However despite the best efforts of the much improved Sam Nealon in defence we continued to leak goals and Cromane ran out easy winners. The game was notable for the debut of Jack Kenny at wing back having arrived from Meath during the week. We wish Jack and his brother Michael all the best in the black and amber. Team- Cillian Comerford, Anthony Moynihan, Sam Nealon, Jack Kenny, Craig Corcoran, Sean Hurley, Shane Greensmyth, Richard Hurley (0-2), Ciaran Flanagan (0-1), Adam Barrett, Niall Carroll Cane (0-1), Shane Flaherty(0-7), Timothy Murphy. Man of the Match-Richard Hurley.
