Ruthless Rovers show no mercy to stunned Seagulls

Shamrock Rovers 6 Bray Wanderers 0: Goals on their full debuts for new signings Dan Carr and Sean Kavanagh, and a brace from Brandon Miele, helped get Shamrock Rovers’ season up and running with a first win of the campaign.

With skipper Ronan Finn still out injured and Greg Bolger failing a fitness test, Trevor Clarke returned from suspension at left-back while Sam Bone made a first appearance of the season anchoring midfield.

Further up the pitch there were influential first starts for Kavanagh on the left flank and striker Carr.
