Convincing win for Clarecastle in semi-final
Only two points in it at the end of Saturday’s semi final in Ennis, but it wasn’t that close. This was a convincing win for Clarecastle over a leaden looking Doora-Barefield side, a side that looked spent in almost every department.
Only the mighty Seanie McMahon, playing much more than a captain’s role, looked hungry for this one. Consider this for a damning statistic: from centre-back, McMahon was by far and way the leading St. Joseph’s scorer. 1-5 he finished with, all from placed balls, 1-5 out of 1-7. Want an even more damning statistic? Between them, the six starting Doora-Barefield forwards, along with the two subs, contributed a grand total of one point, their only score from play.
