Elsewhere, St Finbarr’s enjoyed a comfortable victory over Bride Rovers and Ben O’Connor’s Midleton got off to a winning start against Bishopstown

Glen Rovers manager Ian Lynam.

Glen Rovers defeated county champions Blackrock in a repeat of last year’s memorable county final as the Red FM SHL got underway at the weekend.

There was to be no repeat of those fireworks, however, as the Glen began life after Richie Kelleher with a comfortable victory over their southside rivals.
