    An epic and equally upsetting weekend

    If anybody has become bored or annoyed by my re-posting match text commentary in recent weeks I apologise.

    Reilly shoots the lights out as ‘Moores march on

    If I was a member or supporter of Donaghmore/Asbourne I’d be doing the Lotto immediately. Having lost their opening two games in the Meath SFC, there seemed to be more chance of a statue of Enoch Burke being erected outside the High Court than that of the green and white making the knockout stages. Though…

    Things can always be worse

    One would almost feel guilty writing anything about actual sport at the moment considering the unspeakable tragedy and grief which has befallen Clonoulty/Rossmore, Tipperary and the GAA community at large following the passing of 24-year-old Dillon Quirke during a Tipperary SHC encounter at Semple Stadium on Friday evening.

The latest edition of our sports show is essentially a follow up to last week’s episode revolving around Adult Football Finals weekend in Meath.

    Saran settles the issue in the fifth minute

    Dunboyne…..0-09 Wolfe Tones……1-09 Like the Down footballers, it had to happen to us eventually too. Where Cork undid the hitherto 100% record of the men from the Mourne Mountains in All Ireland finals in 2010, Wolfe Tones deservedly gave Dunboyne their first taste of defeat in a Keegan Cup at Pairc Tailteann this afternoon. In…
