Senior League
Muckalee travelled to Mooncoin for their second game in the Senior Football League. It was the home side with the aid of a gale force wind that dominated the first half leading 0-6 to no score at half time. On the resumption the Muckalee attack had more luck with their finishing to get back in the game, levelling coming up to full time but a point for Mooncoin gave them victory. Well done to Bill Dowling who made his Senior debut doing well. Final Score 1-8 to 1-7.

St Martins Inter County Bounty 2019 Winners
A dramatic final weekend of provincial action saw Wexford and Limerick take the spoils to bring us all the way back to the summer of ’96. Davy completing the full set of titles for his own personal collection and Limerick annexing all three major titles at the one time for the first time since 1936. Tom Murphy (€1000) and Helen Corcoran (€400) were joint top of the predictions with 180 points with Tom closer in his prediction for the top scorers winning out. Seamus Callanan and TJ Reid taking the top scorer from play awards after scintillating provincial campaigns. The Father and Son duo of Paddy and Tomás Morrissey could not be separated in the battle for third and share the All Ireland tickets of their choosing later in the year as both were within five of the correct score. Congratulations to the winners and sincere thanks to all those who took part and bought forecast cards for 2019.

St Martins Inter County Bounty 2019
Joe Dowling never fear the Inter County Bounty results are here!! After a dramatic conclusion to the Leinster championship with Kilkenny and Wexford emerging as Leinster finalists alongside Dublin who dramatically knocked out 2017 All Ireland champions Galway. Munster will see Tipperary and Limerick face off after emerging from Munster with Cork. TJ Reid and Seamus Callanan are atop the scoring lists from play and it will take a major scoring surge to knock them from the top spots. Its all to play for at the top of the leaderboard going into the Leinster and Munster finals which will be played next weekend.
