O’Sullivan the ace as Carbery craft pays dividends

Carbery Rangers 0-14 Gaultier 1-5

Last season they scorched their way through the junior campaign and, at a splendid Fermoy venue yesterday, they added the intermediate title to their list of achievements, outplaying Gaultier with a slick moving game the Waterford champions couldn’t match.

No question, the championship defeat in Cork by Nemo Rangers still rankles. But it was clear from an early stage yesterday that Carbery were in no mood for reflection. And although Gaultier put up a much stronger challenge in the second-half, really the damage was done in the first period when the West Corkmen swept them off their feet, leading 0-9 to 0-1 at the break.
