Senior Football draw at Thos Davis
AFL1 Thomas Davis 0-12 St Sylvesters 1-09 A disappointing second half after a heroic first half performance saw us lucky enough to get a draw over a solid Davis team. We faced a wicked wind and rain in the first half and played some very controlled football. Davis went 6 to 2 up when Barry Ryan tenaciously won a penalty which Gavin finished nicely. Davis finished the half with a point and Syls defending bravely. Of course, the rain passed and the wind dropped at the break but we opened with a lovely Shane O'Connor point and looked poised to take control.
Didn't happen, however and I don't think we ever actually led, having plenty of possession but tentative up front and not taking our chances neither from play nor from frees.
Not a bad result, Kiltipper is never an easy assignment.
Ronan Palmer left the ground with what looked like a nasty knee injury and we hope it is not as bad as it looked. Alan Foy and Andrew Cunningham also came off injured.
Syls: Dominic McDonnell, Aiden Lawlor, Fionn Carney, Glenn Hazely, Andrew Cunningham, Gavin McArdle, Ronan Palmer, Ross Hazely, Shane O'Connor, Conor Meaney, Gary Sweeney, Alan Foy, John Coughlan, Niall Coughlan, Michaell McCarthy, Barry Ryan, Paul Connolly, Jack Hazely
