Intermediate
League Final
Last
Saturday our senior footballers stared off the new
season in winning fashion. We played the final of
last years intermediate league against Shandonagh.
As our selves and Shandonagh have great club rivalry
the fixture proved to be an exciting and hard fought
final.
The first half started off at a great pace. A quality
point from wing back, Kevin Tormey open the scoring
and after Noel Kiernan was unluckily to see his
shot for goal hit the crossbar and go over the bar
the score stood at 2 points to nil. Shandonagh replied
while Buns Padraig Walsh, Colm McCormack and another
point from Noel Kiernan left the score at half time
5 – 3 in favour of Bun.
The second half started off slower. But a well-worked
team point converted by Brian Maguire settled our
lads. Midway through the half Shandonagh was awarded
a penalty. Andy Fox stepped up to take the kick
but Bunbrosna keeper Damien McCormack proved too
cunning and made himself the hero with a fantastic
save. Soon after the save Buns corner forward Fintan
Finnan had a shot on goal saved but up stepped master
goal-poacher JP Reynolds to calmly convert the rebound
to the net. Finian Newman slotted another point
over near the end to leave Bun run out deserved
winners on a score line of 1-07 to 0-04.
Great play from many players on Saturday helped
us to do the double including Kevin, Darren and
Cormac in the backs and Noel, JP and Simon in the
forwards. Our midfield also played excellent on
the strong midfield pairing of |David Duffy and
Colin Galligan showing that Aidan and Padraig will
be a force to be reckoned within senior football
this year.
Team: Damien McCormack, Conor Newman,
Cormac McCormack, Darren Geerah, Kevin Tormey (0-01),
Andy Whitney, Finian Newman (0-01), Padraig Walsh
(0-01), Aidan Finnan, Simon Maher, Noel Kiernan
(0-02), Brian Maguire (0-01), Colm McCormack (0-01)
JP Reynolds (1-00) and Fintan Finnan. Johnny McCormack
for Colm McCormack, Tommy Murphy for JP Reynolds
and Gerry Brennan for Padraig Walsh.

Intermediate
Team take in St.Josephs in Championhsip:
Saturday
afternoon saw us in action against St. Josephs in
what had been a very successful championship to date
and Saturday was to be none different. After 2 minutes
Ciarian Breannan opened the scoring for us with a
goal which was to set the bench mark for his team
mates and when St. Josephs replied with 2 points it
looked as if the match could be close. However a point
from Kevin Tormey on the 10th minute, goals from his
brother Peter on the 15th and 25th minute, another
goal by Ciarian Brennan on the 31st minute and points
from Finian Newman and Aidan Finnan in the in term
period saw Bun leading by 2:4 to 0:4 points at half
time. The
second half continued much the same as the first
half with an excellent team performance right through
the forward line, with some excellent scores from
play taken by Peter Tormey, Padraic Tighe, Noel
Kiernan Colm McCormack and Ciarian Brennan. Reciprocation
of scores at the other end was prevented by excellent
back line play and mid-fielding which facilitated
the numerous scoring opportunities which bun converted
in the second half. All in all this was a good team
performance, which saw us win with final score line
of 7:14 to 0:6.
