Crokes back in the groove as Kilcummin deny Gneeveguilla

Dr Crokes raced 0-8 to 0-2 clear after 21 minutes with all six forwards scoring. Cooper, Kieran O’Leary, Daithí Casey and Johnny Buckley were all to the fore as the Killarney side led 0-10 to 0-7 at the break.

Ten minutes into the second-half Darragh Long finished a move started by Kieran Donaghy to the net to cut the gap to the minimum. Stacks’ Pa McCarthy was sent-off in the closing stages for dissent and Crokes took advantage with Cooper (two frees) and Chris Brady sealing a three point win.
