Murphy marches to Munster semi-final
On Saturday, Martin Coppinger, All-Ireland champion in 2010, easily beat Pat Butler at the Mons. Last year’s finalist, Christy Mullins, bowled well at Caheragh to beat All-Ireland intermediate champion Brian Wilmot. European Dutch Moors champion Aidan Murphy plays Gary Daly next Saturday in the last quarter-final at Carrigaline.
In Sunday’s championship tie at Lyre, David Murphy was in control from the off against James Buckley. Buckley played his first two shots to the left and followed with a poor third to leave Murphy almost a bowl clear at the forestry. Murphy played his next over the hump to raise the bowl.
