St Finbarr’s easily accounted for Carrigtwohill on Saturday evening in a resplendent Riverstown with a magnificent performance in the first round of the Cork SHC.

A few of the older patrons in the South Stand in Páirc Uí Chaoimh last night may remember the old Buddy Starcher classic ‘History Repeats Itself’. And, had they also been in Thurles last Sunday, the song must surely have resonated with them as this Munster U21 hurling semi-final unfolded.

Aghada 0-16 Éire Óg 0-9: Aghada returned to the Premier Intermediate hurling ranks in Cork with a fully deserved victory over Éire Óg in the IHC final played in Páirc Uí Rinn this evening. They lead the game from pillar to post and generally out hurled their opponents all over the field.
