Carrickmacross Club Notes

April 27th, 2017

Minor League! The minor team turned out their best performance with victory over Magheracloone in Emmet Park. The foundation was set in the first half when the home led by 1-07 to 0-04 at the break. Good play was shown throughout this period to create an air of optisism for the second half. Magheracloone registered their fifth and last point early after the restart and it was from here on that the Emmets showed some fine skills and drive; Killian Gartland who was having an outstanding hour started the sequence; indeed he landed six-points overall! The Emmets defenders intercepted all the major Magheracloone threats and kept the Mitchells chances to a minimum. The half back line were in control of their area and made life difficult for their opponents: Midfield was strong and used their strenght to good use. Up front it was pleasing to see some very intricate play with a high level of movement; which in turn created space and the points.The half forward line were productive in producing openings and found plenty of gaps while the full forward line were on their toes and confident on the ball. Final Score; 1-17 to 0-05. Team; Robbie McCluskey; Cormac O’Hanlon; Patrick Bermingham; Oisin Cassidy; Cathal O’Rourke; Tiernan McCourt; Cathal McEneaney; Andrew Moore; Karl McMenamin; Thaig Callaghan; Oisin Wilcoc; Rowan McMahon; Eoin Brady; Dylan Ward: Killian Gartland; Subs were Jack Gillick; Eoghan Duffy; Michael Maguire; Larry McCluskey; Breffni Henry; Rhesa Irawan:

Crawley Cup! The Emmets Reserve team accounted for Drumhowan in the Reserve Championship at Emmet Park. John McMenamin and Jack Ogle set the wheels in motion with a point apiece from play. Drumhowan replied with two points also from play one of which was tipped over brilliantly by Glen O’Reilly.  A series of Emmet scores followed; Jack Ogle a point from play; Aaron Murray arrived from full back and goaled; Sean Downey a brace of points; Ryan O’Connor and then Ciaran Ward a point each; Mark Downey fisted a point and brother Sean pointed a free-kick: Emmets 1-10 Drumhowan 0-02. Drumhowan opened the second half with a point from play but Ryan Carolan from a quick ball pointed. Mark Downey scored a splendid point before the visitors sent over a free-kick. Next came a typical left footer from John McMenamin; he was back again within minutes when his right foot did the needy! Meanwhile Drumhowan finished their scoring with a free-kick. Ciaran Ward was making inroads and was rewarded with two excellent points. Then as in the first half Sean Downey finished the scoring: when landing the last score of the half. Emmets 1-17 Drumhowan 0-05: Team; Glen Reilly, Ronan O’Callaghan, Aaron Murray, Gearoid Jones, Fergal McDermott, James McGeown, Adrian McCluskey, Ciaran Ward, Declan Finnegan, Ryan O’Connor, Ryan Carolan, Mark Downey, Jack Ogle, Sean Downey, John McMenamin.

Sixteens Win! The under sixteen team got back on the winning track at Donaghmoyne with a splendid win over the home side. A good start is half the battle and two early goals had the perfect effect and when two more followed before half time it looked very promising. Andrew Moore got two majors while Donnach Swinburne got one; Eton O’Gorman got his fist to a fifty-fifty ball and outdid the goalkeeper. In the meantime Donnach was tapping over free-kicks while Dara Povall and Jack McGeown got a point apiece. Half time; 4-07 to 0-03: Darragh Maher took off a great double save just before half time! Donnach pointed two early points in the second half and another goal from Ryan Marron and two further points from Donnach plus a Larry McCluskey point was ample to secure victory. Emmets 5-12 Fontanoys 0-12: Team; Darragh Maher; Sean McKenna; Nathan McCaul; Helvijs Daygulis; Nial Keenan; Jack McGeown; Larry McCluskey: Eton O’Gorman; Conor Capaldi; Ryan Marron; Donnach Swinburne; Cian Maher; Andrew Moore; Dara Povall; Darragh Alfred;
