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.
