PJHC Defeat

Argideen Rangers lost the Co-op Superstores PJHC second round game against Barryroe last Sunday in Clonakilty. First half highlights included some great runs and scores from Finbarr Butler, James Crowley and Sean Walsh yet Barrryroe converted some important frees to lead 0-11 to 0-8 at halftime. Sean Murray, Jack Twoomey (making his championship debut) and Ger Crowley gave it their all in the backline throughout the game. The teams were evenly matched with Barryroe pulling away in the final few minutes with a well taken goal and point to record a 1-18 to 0-16 win. There is a full match report in the sports pages. St Finbarrs provide the final group game opposition on Saturday September 5th. The equation is simple - a win or draw will see us qualify for the knockout stages. Team; John Sheehan, Jack Twoomey, Ger Crowley, Bill Fleming, Sean Murray, Fergal Walsh, Sean Henchion, Darragh O' Donovan, Cathal O' Donovan, Finbarr Butler, John Michael O' Callaghan, Charlie Twoomey, Sean Walsh, Eoin Lawton and James Crowley. Subs used; Philip O' Flynn, Paudie Butler and Dara Walsh.
