Division 3 v Bunbrosna

A late Nigel Scally point earned us a share of the spoils in an exciting All-County Football League Division 3 Round 6 encounter away to Bunbrosna last Saturday evening.

Level on 0-6 each at half-time, we resumed with a goal from Scally and points from Colin Draper, Cillian Rochford and Danny Scully to put ourselves in a winning position. But the home side then stormed back to take the lead before Scally came to our rescue in injury-time. The final score was 1-11 apiece.

The result moves us onto seven points after we had won three and lost two of our previous games.

Team: Niall Rabbitte; Martin Ward, James Fox, Mel Kiernan; James Hanlon, Shaun Pidgeon, Mark Wrafter; Ray Kennedy, Niall Carey; Cillian Rochford, Padraig Carton, Joey O’Neill; Conor Delaney, Nigel Scally, Danny Scully. Subs: Dean Fitzgerald, Colin Draper, Jack Mullins, Michael Joyce, Colm Heffernan, David Fennell, Arthur O’Rourke and Alan Fennell.
