Match Report v Tir Chonaill Gaels

Last Sunday was our final game in the 2013 Championship, we played Tir Chonaill Gaels on a blustery Sunday afternoon in Greenford.

We where missing six regular players through injured and holiday. The game got underway with the breeze in our favour. Tir Chonaill from the start where well organised and took a three point lead before a well worked move from the backs up to Sean Allen who slotted the ball over from 40 yards. Tir Chonaill where strong and physical and we did not match them on that level in the first half, Sean Allen got two more points to reduce the deficit at half time.

Half  time score 0-3 to 1-8

Some stern words from Paddy and John at half meant that the lads where fired up for the second half. Some strong tackles from Johnny, Sean and Brain ensured Tir Chonaill knew that we were not going to accept defeat that easy.

Tir Chonaill with the wind in the their favour took their points well and open up a comfortable lead.

We made four changes with 15 minutes to go, Connie, Conor, Theo, John Bradley and John Timbs came on for Dave, Conor, Darren and Niall.

The final score was 2-15 to 0-5 – well done to Tir Chonaill on the win and all the best for the rest of the Championship
