Despite the score line there was a few crumbs of comfort from this game.
the performance of ryan mackle who has returned to play this season and has found his best position at corner back. wee brother ronan continues to push for a starting slot on the first 15 and another returnee ciaran o hare was very impressive in terms of catching and movement. A definite prospect that caught the eye of senior manager blaney, no doubt.

paul mc crudden rolled back the years with a return to the blue and gold. keelan and tim please note paul has championship medals!. All 17 players on the night enjoyed the game and the management team of judge,bogue,mccann and o neill may have erred in not taking veteran conway off for medical help, there dedication to the cause could not be faulted
