Donegal ready to grind it out

IN fairness to Rory Kavanagh, he wasn’t one of the worst ones in Ballybofey two years ago.

On a day when Donegal were accused of being wasteful to the point of carelessness (they shot 18 wides), he managed to direct the ball between the posts on three occasions from open play.

It wasn’t because of him that John Joe Doherty’s side fell in spectacular circumstances to Antrim, giving the Saffrons their first Ulster win in seven years.
