County Rejoice he is a huge Cog in this Clair side we said car had a great response to the goal but now CL have responded brilliantly again great couch Dar fitzg trying to get away from David mcer the

rolling towards the Clair goal now it’s a black card anywhere for a start is this a goal scoring opportunity absolutely is it inside the large rectangle it’s a big decision now to be made by Johnny Murphy and indeed his umpires [Music] he’s given the fre which is the correct decision but I don’t think he’s Tau about the Black Card Patrick Horan could well go for goal at the hill 16 end five players on the goal line including the keeper ER Gilligan and he sends that over the bar jaist Jed underneath it Sim man gets more involved again he’s caught with BR colan go in search of two more
