St
Canice's v Thomastown
Not a great performance, but
a win!!
A/B 3 St. Canice's 4-8 Thomastown
!-7
For
the second outing in a row , we experienced very poor
weather on our visit to Thomastown, but in an odd way,
it was the weather that came to our rescue in this game.
When the referee, Brendan O Sullivan blew the whistle
at half time the rain was coming down in torrents, but
so too was the pressure from the boys from Thomastown,
and we were definitely saved by the half time bell!
We started brightly and scored first with a goal from
Cillian Buckley after 8 minutes, but from then to half
time we gave second best to our opposition in many parts
of the field and trailed at half time by 1-6 to 1-2.
Our second half effort was much improved. The leader
was a novice to Roinn A hurling- Eoin Cantwell- scoring
two goals and showing some of the more experienced hurlers
how it should be done. We eventually ran out easy winners
, 4-8 to 1-7, but this effort would definitely not do
against stronger opposition. We had too many lads today
who did not commit themselves to a total effort throughout
the full game.
Some players showed a real willingness for the whole
game. Best were Joe Keohane in goal, the full back line
of Sean Treacy, Peter Turley and Thomas Phelan. Evan
Guilfoyle at centre back, and forwards Eoin Cantwell,
Peter Vickery, Sam Johnson, Gerry Walsh and Eoin Gough
.
