> On Sunday St. Farnan's played St. John's in Stenson Park. This time luck was not on our side as we were defeated by 0-10 to 0-9. St. Farnan's had a few unavailable players for this match. We had the better of the first half and led 0-6 to 0-4 at the break. All of our scores came from play and we should have had a greater lead as we had a number of wides.
> We got off to a great start after the break with two points from Ciaran O ' Connor and Shane Neary. Disaster then struck when Andrew Mc Munn was forced out of the game with a knee injury. At that point we led 0-8 to 0-4.
> St. John's gained momentum after the stoppage adding three points to their tally before Ciaran pointed a free for St. Farnan's. It was St. John's who finished stronger adding two points to level matters. A final free gave them the winning point. St. Farnan's will be disappointed that they let this game slip despite many good performances.
