Yes our lads have made it to another East Cork Final after a titanic struggle with Killeagh. The news was not good at Rostellan when Rohan Sheehan and James Daly were unable to travel due to sickness added to Michael Russell, John Martin and Michael Desmond on Holidays we were down to 16 players put these lads are never down after losing the league fixture to Killeagh we knew we were in for a hard hours hurling. Eoin Healy got the 1st score a point that would stand out in any match doubled the ball over the bar. We were to score no more for the half while Killeagh replied with a goal and a point to lead at the short whistle. This did not tell the whole story Lion hearted Willie O'Shea, clearing ball after ball Cian Fleming and Shane Wall going strong at mid field John O'Brien and Padraig Mulry causing problems up front. Young Brian Condon playing the game of his life at corner Back While Pa. Crowley was the goal minder and what a game he played. . Conor Rice and Chris Cashman took the game by the scruff of the neck in the second half with Rice getting the 1st score of the second half, with tension rising Fleming got the ball on the forty and if Healys score was a peach this rivaled Fentons goal. Back in the lead now the pressure mounted, Pa making a save and going out and clearing the ball up the field. Cathal Mulry just wide, would it be our day. Back came Killeagh over the bar 1point ahead could we hold out Eoin Savage clears the ball Richie Dowling nearly gets the goal Killeagh Mount one last attack. Gearóid Murphy holds firm Andrew O'Donoghue the outstanding full back clears the ball Kenneth Higgins gathers feeds Shane Wall, Shane solos what a goal. Bring on St.Catherines or Russell Rovers in the Final

our lads lose 1st hurling match,

Short a number of players we still put up a great show when we went down to Killeagh in a great game that came to live in the second half Killeagh lead by 2-4 to 0-4 at half time but our lads dug deep and nearly pulled it off with goals from Eoin Healy and Cian Fleming . team
