Against the gale in the first half Nenagh regrouped after early Kildangan pressure to lead 3-5 to 1-3 at half-time. Aided by the wind in the second half Nenagh wasted no time putting some distance between the teams with three early second half goals. \u00c9ire \u00d3g ran out convincing winners on a final scoreline of 9-12 to 1-3. A special mention must go to Evan Murphy for his strong defensive performance and to youngest player Barry Coffey for some great goals.
