Wonder what has gone wrong with Clann Eireann. With all the good young players who have come through the ranks in recent years they were widely tipped to challenge for the title and now they can't even qualify in third place in a four team group

some of their players took it easy after St Michael's college won the MacRory cup

Indeed Benny - into the last quarter, we led 2-10 to 0-08, but then conceded a bad goal when a long range free fell short and suddenly Killeavey had the wind in their sails. From memory, they managed to level the game until we broke away and won a penalty, after Ultan Lennon was taken down when one-on-one with the keeper. Ultan put the penalty away to leave three in it. However Killeavey notched another point and Harps' supporters were pleading for the final whistle at the end with Killeavey putting a high ball into the square which just went wide.

A win though is a win!

Cross on the way back. If they get their injured players Back, I think they will e in it.

Absolutely. Having Oisin back made a huge difference. The dynamic and of how we played was significant. Being able to keep Rian closer to the goal was s huge thing. Was very surprised at how poor CE were. We settled well but there was no fire from them. Playing as individuals. The wet day favoured us. Some of the scoring was excellent. Still improvements to make. Still Cullyhannas year

They are still a good side but Cross had a point to prove after a lge defeat at home but there will be many more closer games between these Clubs

Was up in maghery tonight. I thought it was extremely competitive- good hits and exciting 2nd half even if it wasn’t trading scores at each end. I’d be more worried if I was a maghery fan tonight. Very one dimensional- don’t think harps will be too disheartened. Should have closed the game out for the draw they needed. They were v wasteful. Aidan former sent off again- seemed to be a raised elbow challenge. Wouldn’t write either side off yet.

Saw cross yday- v impressive but clann eireann were awful. couldnt compete physically with cross. That is their issue- one thing winning minor and u16 titles but there wouldn’t be 2/3 players would have Started in the cross lineup.

I think the winners will come from cross, maghery, harps... seen cullyhanna play few weeks ago against the ogs- defensively they are poor enough. Good going forward. Glad it is now knockout!! Cship starts now.
