Finnegan points the way for Aghabullogue

A SUPER night for hurling in Newcestown on Saturday, yet little sparkle from either Aghabullogue or last year’s intermediate champions Kilbrittain.

Too many frees and broken play made this a night for the free-takers which Aghabullogue’s Pa Finnegan won hands down, scoring 11 of his 12 points from placed balls.

In the end, Aghabullogue were that bit tastier and deserved their victory, leaving Kilbrittain to negotiate a clash with Inniscarra in the backdoor to stay in the championship.
