Brilliant Paul Buckley masters Kieran Murphy

He raised a bowl after three. Murphy knocked the bowl to Mac’s lane. Buckley got a great rub with his next past the lane and followed with a big shot up the hill to go a bowl clear. He was still a bowl clear facing Fehilly’s.
He got another smashing rub with his next towards Desmond’s lane that pushed his lead to almost two bowls. Murphy steadfastly held off the second bowl in his next three, beating a huge bowl from Buckley into the dip. Buckley finally raised the second bowl at Collins’ lane.
