FINAL POSTPONED
The wait for the winner of this years County Premier Minor Football champions will go on after the replay was postponed due to the inclement weather. The team will now have to wait possibly another two weeks before they play again.
COUNTY HURLING FINAL VIDEO
When all the celebrating had finally died down the team met in the club recently to sit down and watch the DVD of the game. Away from the drama of the day the lads could sit back and enjoy the game on the TV screen and replay every shot from the day. When the game had finished there was a presentation by Mr Dave Harrington on behalf of Harrington Assessors of a copy of the DVD for each of the players and management team. This was a fantastic gesture and one which the lads really appreciated. For anyone that is interested the DVD can be purchased for a fee of €20 by contacting the club.

DRAKE FREE SECURES REPLAY
CARRIGALINE 2-8 ST. MICHAEL’S 1-11
A late, long range pointed free from David Drake to tie the game was no more than Carrigaline deserved from this tough encounter played in what can only be described as inclement weather conditions. In fact Drake was unerring from frees all night despite the conditions. Carrigaline can also thank their ability to create and take their goals as a major plus and was another huge factor in the final result. Both Carrigaline goals came at crucial stages. Despite conceding a goal in the first period Carrig stuck to their task and as the half wore on they came more into the game and were unfortunate to go in three points down at the break
Despite the fact that Carrigaline conceded the first score of the half they continued to take the game to their opponents and they drew level With St. Michaels when Simon O’Brien found the back of the net. Carrigaline had a second goal shortly after when Adrian Lynch scored Carrigs second goal. St Michaels came back into the game and took control and with time running out they went in front by a point. But true to form Drake stood up and put the ball over from distance to secure the draw and another chance to win the title. It was a top class effort by all involved especially given the conditions on the night.
Team: S Mellet, T O’Connor, D Bagnall, S Noonan, S Conlon, C Barry, D Spillane, D O’Regan, J Shepherd, L O’Regan, D Drake, J McCarthy, A Lynch, S O’Brien, D O’Keeffe.
The replay is fixed for Sunday 9th November in Páirc Uí Rinn at 4pm
Congratulations
Congratulations to club stalwart Nicholas Murphy who captained Munster to the Provincial title over the weekend. This is a fantastic achievement to one of the most dedicated players to play the game. Not only is it a huge honour for Nicholas and his family but it is another plus for the Carrigaline club in what has been a historic year so far.
