Sensational lash shot win for Sexton
He edged the first three throws towards Geary’s. Murphy won the shots to the creamery. He took a big lead with his next to the top of the acre after Sexton had played his too low on the left. Sexton just made the no-play line with his sixth and Murphy went to Heaphy’s to go almost a bowl in front.
Sexton’s shot from the line lodged in the right hand bank to leave a full shot between them. Nothing changed to O’Riordan’s. Sexton got a good bowl up the long straight, but Murphy beat it to stay a bowl in front. Sexton won the shots to Leahy’s; they both missed the big corner from there.
