Connor O’Neill and Maurice Rooney v Patrick Garvey and Danny Trainor:

A big second shot by Rooney was cancelled out by a big third from Garvey, leaving things pretty level at Mary Ann’s, with both pairs opening the corner in three. It remained fairly level up to the cap where Garvey and Trainor built up a useful lead round the cap to O’Neill’s. A miss from Trainor levelled things again, but the next miler from Garvey nearly opened the top corner leaving them with a useful lead. Rooney’s next got a nice rub out from before the last corner to 20 yards short of the line and when Trainor failed to score, it was down to the last two throws. O’Neill unleashed a pile driver to nearly the Church. Garvey’s reply looked to be following it all the way, but an unfortunate bounce left it short of the mark.

Shane O’Neill jnr v Daniel Trainor:

In a short score to Allen’s Lane, a big second shot from young O’Neill to Paddy O’s left him with almost a shot of a lead which he didn’t relinquish to the line.

Mickey McVeigh v Malachy Quigley:

A near flawless display early on from Quigley belied his years as he raced into a bowl of a lead to Mullantur. A poor shot from McVeigh allowed Quigley to extend the lead to nearly two round Mary Ann’s corner. McVeigh, however, produced a sting in the tale when he threw a miler from the houses to nearly score the line. Quigley’s next only got the dead kerb at the Point Road, breaking the shot and his next had its fair share of luck hopping another kerb rubbing across the road and scoring the line off the wire fence, leaving Quigley a relieved last shot winner.
