Harkin’s timely reminder to O’Rourke
Tara…1-09 Ardbraccan…0-06 A sparkling performance from Tara midfielder Eoin Harkin was the main talking point from this dour Brady’s Skoda Regional Football Championship clash at Dunganny on Tuesday evening. The Dunsany player was one of a number very harshly defenestrated from the Meath panel prior to the commencement of the championship but his fine effort…
