Harrington and Griffin blast impressive Barryroe into final

BARRYROE are through to the Munster Club JHC final for the first time by virtue of a convincing six-point victory over Ballysaggart at Páirc Uí Chaoimh yesterday.

Responding to the early challenge of the Waterford champions, Barryroe, with two cracking goals from corner-forward Denis Harrington, and nine points from wing forward Kieran Griffin, safely secured their place in the provincial decider.

Barryroe hardly knew what hit them in the opening sequences when three points from corner-forward Christy Murphy, two from frees, propelled Ballysaggart into the lead. And with midfielder Eugene O’Brien excelling, the Cork champions found themselves with a battle on their hands.
