Footballers defeat Aghada to reach the East Cork Semi - Final
Castlelyons 0-13 Aghada 2-02. Our footballers have ad-
vanced to the final of the Michael O’Connor Motor Factors East Cork Junior A Semi-Final by virtue of a convincing win over Agha- da last Friday evening. The game was played in damp and breeze conditions and was refereed by Brian Mur- phy who did a very good job and had linesmen and um- pires with him. Aghada did provide
stiff opposition at
times and got a goal almost from the throw in a fast move as Kevin O’Hanlon banged in a goal for them and then C Terry added a point to go 0-4 up. However, we fought our way back into the game with some good football. We had points from Ronan Fen- ton and then two great goal chances as Ronan Bransfield was put through but the goal- ie did well on both occasions. A Spillane, A O’Sullivan, C McGann 0-1 each and each and R Bransfield 0-2, A Fen- ton 0-2 each puts us three points up when a mix up in defence led to another Agha- da goal by C Rabitte. Ronan Fenton put over a long range free to leave the score Castle- lyons 0-8 Aghada 2-1 at the short whistle. We had a point from Alan
Fenton shortly after the start of the second half and we
dominated the game with a slight breeze but we had some terrible wides, seven in total over a fifteen-minute spell. Now there are wides but a few of these efforts were nearly in the Saleen direc- tion. However, we defended very well during this period also as we tackled cleanly and turned over a lot of Aghada attacks. Ciarán McGann set up Darren Tobin for a well taken point and we contin- ued to dominate to the end of the game as we ran out five point winners. This was a very encourag- ing win and as I have said be- fore we are consolidating our place in Junior A football. We were down a few and hopefully Brian Carroll’s nas- ty shoulder injury received in the hurling game versus Fermoy will clear up soon. Fair play to the management team of Donal O’Leary, Maurice Carroll and James Moroney as the lads are playing with great spirit and freedom.
Our next outing
will be against Erin’s Own in the semi-final. This will be a tough one but if we get in a bit of shooting practice and get all our lads out we are in with a chance of making a second East Cork Final in so many years. Team: - Stephen Hick-
ey, Declan Varner, Cian O’Leary, Shane
Fenton,
Eoin Maye, Tom Carroll, Aidan O’Sullivan, Colm Barry, Alan Fenton, Darren Tobin, Ciarán McGann, Ro- nan Fenton, Robby Feeney, Anthony Spillane, Ronan Bransfield. Subs: - Noel
McAuliffe for Cian O’Leary, Michael Spillane
an Fenton, Alan O’Regan, Colm O’Neill
Intermediate Hurlers prepare for D Day in Championship. Our intermediate hurlers
continue to prepare for the big game in the champion- ship versus Fr O’Neill’s. On Sunday morning at 11 am we played Courcey Rovers who were en route to Thurles on a luxury coach for the big game and had scores from A Fenton 1-2, A Spillane 0-5 (2 frees), C McGann 0-2, D Tobin, D Lawler, and R O’Regan 0-1 each to leave us 1- 12 to 1-9 up at half time. But we really took over
in the second half and had scores from A Spillane 1-3, A Fenton 1-2, A O’Regan 1-0, C McGann and E Maye 0-2 each, R Feeney, C Barry, and R Bransfield 0-1 each to run out big winners. This heavy defeat was somewhat to the surprise of Courcey Rovers management who are a Pre- mier out and are mid table in the league. Hopefully, we are on the road back again after the defeat to Kanturk as we have done well all year but that second half against the Duhallow outfit is best for- gotten.
While Fr O’Neill’s
are roaring favourites but one never knows if our lads get- ting into this modern form “in the zone” and they lads are working hard at it again. Team: -
Shane O’Sulli-
van, Tom Carroll, Declan Varner, Robbie Feeney, Colm O’Neill, Colm Barry, Keith

Junior B Hurlers take league points. Castlelyons 2-18 St Catherines 2-8. We recorded our first vic-
tory in the league with a solid win over St Catherines last Tuesday evening. This was competitive for a while but when St Catherines lost cen- tre back Ed Kenneally in the first half we got on top land picked off some good scores. St Catherines tried hard and got in for a consolation goal at the end. Hopefully we will get a good run in the champi- onship and the team is begin- ning to come together. Team: - John Paul Mur-

55 Notes
Cusack one of our founders would be proud as he was a hand rugby player too.
the soft option would be to bat
them out. In
the Leinster football cham- pionship Carlow, who have a good good spattering of red, shocked Wexford and Louth, in red, defeated Wicklow. However, pride of place for the weekend goes
to Cork
as the Rebel Reds are back and defeated Tipperary in the Munster SHC.
This
game had all the trappings of
mixed with
tradition. A 4 pm start to facilitate showing of games on TV. Much like the soccer with no minor or interme- diate game beforehand and fantastic entertainment from the “crow’s nest” in the lead up. There was a fierce rush to make the throw in but the town was doing the business from 11.30 am on. However, when the band
struck off on the Parade there was a hectic atmosphere and then the game itself. Hectic stuff and the tone was really set that Cork meant business when our own man Colm Spillane rose to the clouds twice to pick the sliotar off John McGrath and make two raking clearances when
Cork took
the spoils in an outstanding game and deservedly so as they were
fast, wristy, at-
tacked at speed and defended tightly. My Dad used always say “you have to be twice as good as Cork to beat them” and last year’s champions Tipp were not near as good. A good start is half the bat- tle and we all look forward to a season of Sundays with Cork starting and ending the Sunday game from a hurling perspective. Well done Colm and Rebels Abú.
Votes of Sympathy. At our recent monthly club
meeting votes of sympathy were extended to the Carroll, Lehane and Cashley fami- lies on recent bereavements. Also, to the Barry family on the death of James Barry, Kill-St-Anne
who year. passed
away peacefully last week in his 92nd
James was
one of our most ardent sup- porters for so many years as he travelled to all the games with his neighbours the late Donal Crowley and Gerry Healy. Solas na bhFlaitheas ar a nainmeacha go léir.
