St. Nauls came away as the winners in this contest played at the Banks in front of a large crowd.
The first half belonged totally to St. Naul’s with Stephen Griffin proving a thorn to the Rosses side as he notched up nine points in total.
Griffin opened the scoring before his midfield partner Connelly kicked over a long rang effort.
Naul’s were winning midfield and their movement was proving difficult for N. Mhuire to handle and good points from McDyer and McGroarty as well as a wonderful sideline point from Griffin had Nauls eight points up and it took until the 28th minute when a Harry Harden free opened the scoring for the home team to leave the half time score 0-8 to 0-1.
The second half saw the home team up the tempo and points from Ciaran McGinley and Harry Harden got the score board moving.
Griffin knocked over a reply point before Paul Boyle kicked a good score. A missed penalty was to prove costly for N. Mhuire as Griffin and Connelly knocked over scores for Naul’s.
A further point from Harry Harden and a Ciaran McGinley penalty in the last minute made the score more respectable.
