The big crowd at Ballela was treated to some excellent hurling from both sides and an exhibition of free taking from John Murphy who scored twelve of the Clonduff points all from free pucks on Saturday 2nd September 2012. It was nip and tuck all the way but with four mins remaining the Clonduff defence were caught napping and a long range free dropped into the net. Clonduff replied with a point but just couldn’t get that all-important goal. Brilliant game, Team and scorers: Paddy Branagan, Shane Quinn, Danny Nugent, Sean Downey, Shay Murnin (0-1), Paudie Matthews, Francis Quinn, Andrew Quinn, Paul McCusker, Mark Downey, Shane Murray (0-1), John Murphy (0-12 – all frees), Jamie Lynch (1-0), Ciarán Smyth, Rián Branagan (0-2); subs used: Liam McParlan, Christopher Young.
