Dylan Geaney's timely recapturing of form provided the required spark for Dingle

His second-half scorecard might also have included the winner, had older brother Conor not called rank when that late controversial free was advanced 50 metres by referee Chris Maguire.

Dylan Geaney assisted a white flag and kicked one of his own during the opening four minutes of Sunday’s Munster club final. 

There was nothing else of note from there to half-time. Geaney wasn’t at all happy with his first-half, the same as he wasn’t happy with his club form arriving into Semple Stadium.
