St Johns 0-15 Darragh Cross 3-14
Darragh travelled to St Johns tonight for round 7 of the Division 3 league, and came away with a comfortable win, after a clinical opening to the game. Cormac Duffy opened the scoring, Anton McGrattan fired over a two pointer and Michael Monan saw a goal bound shot flicked over the bar, in the opening minutes. From the next play, good work from Monan created a chance which Matt Boyle slotted to the net. Darragh hit the net again three minutes later when Monan finished another flowing move, to leave Darragh 2-4 to 0-3 ahead after only ten minutes.
St Johns steadied themselves with a two point free from their goalkeeper, and the sides traded points for the remainder of the half. Shane Murray, Matt Boyle, Anton McGrattan and Zac Leckie raised white flags for the visitors as Darragh led by 2-8 to 0-8 at the break.
The Johnnies dominated the first few kick outs in the second half, and trimmed the deficit with three points in the opening five minutes. Darragh were relieved to get up the pitch and see Duffy slot over a free. It got better for The Cross when Patrick McSorley firstly curled over a point, before getting on the end of another swift attack to finish to the top corner of the net. With an 8 point advantage, Darragh managed the remainder of the game well to see out the win. Duffy, Leckie, Marcus Miskelly and Joe McKinney added points with the home side tagging on four at the other end.
