Red-hot Bennettsbridge in control
Bennettsbridge will be hot favourites to claim the All-Ireland JHC title after crushing Shamrocks in Saturday’s Leinster decider at O’Connor Park.
Trevor Darcy opened the scoring for the Offaly club but thereafter it was one way traffic as the Kilkenny champions took control. Nicky Cleere hit six first-half points and Brian Lannon blasted a close range goal to make it 1-10 to 0-1 at half time. There was no let-off on the restart with Aidan Cleere, Darragh Wafer and William Murphy all on target.
