Setanta rules skies as Blues stay on a roll

HOT on the heels of the heroics of Sean Óg and Aisake for the Cork hurlers last weekend, the Australian arm of the O hAilpín sporting dynasty continues to make headlines in the AFL.

Such has been the turnaround in his fortunes the Carlton Blues attack has been re-branded as ‘Setanta and his Little Helpers’.

O hAilpín failed to find the target for just the second time all season but his bustling, bullying aerial prowess ensured that he continued to dominate the skies meaning his smaller colleagues – with Eddie Betts to the fore – were freed up to help the Blues to a 101-60 victory over Jim Stynes’ Melbourne Demons in front of almost 50,000 at the MCG.
