League in the balance as top two win
Demons were able to parade the National Cup and while the fans at The Mardyke Arena yesterday afternoon were ecstatic, Pat Price had his players focused for what he regarded as an important SuperLeague tie against Joey Boylan’s Roma St. Vincent’s.
The first half was close enough (40-36) but it was just a matter of time before the visitors would succumb to Demons’ fast running game and the second half saw their hopes of an upset come tumbling down. The firepower of Colin O’Reilly was again underscored as he hit 24 points while Michael Doles had 24 more and Gary Johnson added 21 to leave Vincent’s, who had trailed by just four at half time, reeling at the end of a 111-75 scoreline.
