Clontarf 8, Shannon 33

Clontarf 8, Shannon 33

This all hinged on the vital contribution of young open-side Shane

Jennings who created two tries towards the end of the first half.

This turned a 9-3 St Mary's half-time lead, courtesy of three Mark McHugh

penalties, into a 21-3 half-time lead.

His vision created Gareth Gannon's try and his quick thinking did the

business for Denis Hickie in the 48th minute.

Second half tries from David Clare and Malcolm O'Kelly guaranteed St

Mary's a much needed bonus point.
