Juvenile
U12: Our U12 team played 2 games this week to conclude their campaign in the County League. We were away to Cordal last Wednesday and put in a very good first half performance but then ran out of steam in the second half as we conceded 4 goals with the final scores at Cordal 5-17 St Pats 1-7.
On Sunday, we played our last game of phase 2 when we welcomed locals, Austin Stacks C. We didn’t start the half on a good note, conceding 4 goals but played much better in the second half and even outscoring the opposition to leave the final scores at St Pats 0-6 Austin Stacks C 5-13. Training times will be communicated to the parents via text message in the next few days.

Seniors
SFL Divison 2, Back game
St Pats 2-13 Legion 3-15
It was goals galore in Blennerville when Legion came calling Saturday evening in a re-arranged back game in this SFL, division 2 encounter. The table toppers took the two points at stake against a spirited St Pats team who’s second half comeback wasn’t enough on the day in which St Pats’ David O’Callaghan kicked seven points, five from play and Legion’s Jamie O’Sullivan two goals and five frees.
Playing with the wind, Legion were first to register the first two points through Thomas Moriarty within two minutes before David O’Callaghan had the white flag raised for the Pats, and he added another in between a Donal Lyne point for Legion. The game was held up shortly afterwards for David to receive some treatment. On resumption of the game, Legion’s Jamie O’Sullivan converted from a free and Thomas Moriarty added another on 14 minutes to lead by three. St Pats pushed on from there but the defence line of Legion stayed in shape and thwarted every St Pats attack. After 24 minutes, John Fitzgerald’s kick went astray and the resultant line ball was quickly taken and sent towards Jamie O’Sullivan whose kick was blocked by Fizzy only for the rebound to fall kindly to Jamie, who made no mistake at the second time of asking to score the first goal of the game. ABreandáin Savage point from a free and a Liam O’Sullivan effort off balance ensured that Legion took a 1-10 to 0-7 lead to the break.
Legion’s Jack O’Neill pointed from play after a minute from a turned over ball as a result of a mis-directed kick. After three minutes of play, Luke Mulligan sent in a long, high ball to Gary Savage who was closely marked but the ball broke for Brendan Poff to shoot beyond the reach of David Gleeson in goals for Legion. Legion’s second goal came four minutes later from a well worked move that was finished by Billy McGuire and a further couple of points straight after saw the away side pull away further to lead by double figures. St Pats worked hard and they hit a purple patch scoring 1-5 without reply including three consecutive points from play by David O’Callaghan and another Brendan Poff goal who “megsed” David Gleeson to close the gap to just two points with eight minutes of normal play left. Rob Leen converted from play to stop the rot and with the home side in search of another goal, threw men into attack but another turned over ball in mid-field saw Legion regain posession and made it count when Jamie O’Sullivan scored his side’s third goal of the match as the game ended on a scoreline of St Pats 2-13 Legion 3-15.
St Pats: John Fitzgerald, Tommy O’Connor, Kieran O’Sullivan, Kieran Dwyer, Jeffrey Foley, Kevin O’Shea (0-1), Luke Mulligan, Liam Poff, Paul McMahon, Liam O’Sullivan (0-2), David O’Callaghan (0-7,2f), Brendan Poff (2-1), Eoin Greaney, Breandáin Savage (0-1,1f), Tommy Lynch
