East Coast Eagles 48-53 Oiléan Hounds
Last night our East Coast Eagles took on the hounds up in ballygawley in what was a cold yet fiery contest.
It was the eagles who started the stronger of the two sides dominating the ruck & centre clearances but unfortunately not able to take advantage of the opportunities early on with a bag full of behinds in the first few minutes.
The hounds came back strong and kicked a couple of goals.
The eagles managed to regain their composure and strike back with a few goals of their own in what was a very end to end game.
The eagles midfield did not stop all night constantly contesting every single possession / loose ball around the park.
We just fell short in the end but there are so many positives to take away from this game.
The new lads really taking the game by the scruff and playing with a new found confidence which is an absolute credit to them, growing in ability every single session.
Other big shoutouts go to Wallsy, Niall Mc Clements, Mick Daley,Jason, Cillian and not to mention Brandon Cochrane kicking his first major for the eagles with a cute dribbler from 30 out.
Next up is the carnival round this Saturday in Belfast where everything is to play for as we edge one step closer to finals footy.
