Portlaoise turn up the heat in second-half

CREDIT to Seneschalstown for fighting the good fight for 30 minutes.

But, in the end, it was all too easy for Portlaoise against the Meath champions who were playing their third game in a week.

Though they fell 12 points short, Seneschalstown still merited a standing ovation from the sizeable number of supporters who followed them to O’Moore Park after the defeat of Wolfe Tones in the county final replay on Thursday night.
