Coppinger holds off Wilmot to lord Munster again
It was a good performance from Wilmot in his first senior final, but Coppinger’s experience saw him through to next Sunday’s All-Ireland final against Ulster’s Eddie Carr at Port Mór-Blackwatertown on the Armagh-Tyrone border.
Wilmot opened with a good tight bowl on the left, which Coppinger missed by 20m. Coppinger looked to have a huge bowl to make Robin’s cross, but he made it with a great second shot. Wilmot just beat that tip. Coppinger played a poor third bowl to the left. Wilmot played his bowl well, but it didn’t travel as he hoped and it left him just 50m fore.
