O’Neill hungry for Saffron success

ANTRIM attacker Terry O’Neill insists tomorrow’s NFL Division 3 decider carries a massive incentive despite promotion having been secured.

O’Neill is one of nine players from All-Ireland club champions St Gall’s who recently linked up with Liam Bradley’s squad and that influx of personnel guarantees serious competition for places in the Saffron starting 15.

“Competition for places in the Antrim squad this year is fierce,” says O’Neill. “We’ve got the likes of Sean Kelly and Micheal Magill back. Everyone wants to prove their worth and this will be our last competitive outing before the Tyrone game in the championship. Players will want to do well against Sligo. There is another title at stake, it’s another trophy, another medal and it’s at Croke Park.”
