SEAMUS O TUAMA: Timmy Murphy to lead Munster team in All-Ireland series

Timmy Murphy will lead the Munster team in the third All-Ireland series in Boston in October following his bowl of odds win over Michéal O’Sullivan in the Junior C final at Clondrohid.

O’Sullivan missed the first bend in three. Murphy’s third was right and only beat it by 40m. O’Sullivan lost ground with his fourth and Murphy reached the layby to raise a bowl. O’Sullivan knocked the bowl with a big sixth towards Tirbeg cross. Murphy pushed clear again with a super seventh to sight at the old house. He was close to a bowl ahead after 10 to the Bell Inn.
