Nifty Nemo back in the reckoning

Nemo Rangers 2-09 St Nicholas 0-05

Beaten by holders Castlehaven after a replay in the opening round, Nemo were always strong favourites for this encounter. They did what they needed to, but not much more.

Trailing early on, goals from Alan Cronin Snr and David Nation ensured their progress would be pain-free, but manager Steven O’Brien left no room for ambiguity in his post-match analysis of the performance.
