Junior Football Championship : Tallow 0-8 Shamrocks 3-15

Tallow ventured over to Lismore for our first outing in two years against the reigning Western champions. In truth we were totally outclassed here. We lost most battles and while it can be acknowledged that our football skills might not be up to scratch with our absence from competitive action, what can be questioned was our lack of effort for a lot out on the field wearing the blue and gold . In the first half we kept the score board ticking over mainly from placed balls but the turning point in the game was when a Donnacha Mulcahy shot in the 26th minute was brilliantly saved by the Shamrocks goalie and forced over rather than under the crossbar. At half time we trailed 0-6 to 1-9. The second half resulted in a manifestation of Shamrocks hard running and good ball play that blew us apart.

The dysfunctionality of our play proceeded to yield only two points from play in the second half. In the broader scheme of things they are still plenty of games to play but a vast improvement is needed to have any aspiration of progressing further. Jake Neville and Dara Mulcahy were our top performers.

Team: William Curley, Dean Beecher, Jake Neville, Kieran Fraser, Jake Beecher, Robbie Geary, Dara Mulcahy, Jordan Henley, Tommy Daly, Ian Beecher , Donnacha Mulcahy(0-1), Shaun O'Sullivan, Eoin McGrath(0-1), Ryan Grey(0-5 4f), Darah Buckley.
