O’Rourke scores last gasp winner for Skryne

THEY don’t own the copyright on sporting drama in Meath but they might want to consider a visit to the patents office after a county football final that brought down the curtain on a memorable season.

Paddy O’Rourke’s winning score came from the last kick of the game and was a brilliantly struck ‘45 from a man associated with guarding the sticks for the county rather than splitting them with his club.

With the clock deep into injury-time, Joe Sheridan – yes, him again – was reprimanded by referee Brendan Darby for failing to give the kicker sufficient room and the ball was duly brought forward ten yards.
