Wolfe Tones had little trouble of disposing of a lacklustre Moynalvey in this Fairyhouse Steel Senior Football Championship Group C game played at a well presented Skryne on Sunday afternoon 8th April.
Moynalvey 0-10
Wolfe Tones 3-16
Wolfe Tones had the two points on offer in the bag come half time as they outscored Moynalvey 2-8 to a paltry point in the first half.
The Tones full forward line of Sarán Ó Finnigan, Cian and Fiachra Ward had Tony Kearney’s charges three points to the good after six minutes, with David McLoughlin pointing Moynalvey’s sole point of the half in the 9th minute.
A further 2-5, Cian Ward three frees, 1-1 from his brother Fiachra, a Thomas O’Reilly point and a goal from wing back Niall McLoughlin left the half time score read 2-8 to 0-1.
Things didn’t get any better for the men in maroon and white after the break, points from Tones’ Niall O’Reilly, Cian Ward and O’Finnigan extended their lead to 2-13 to 0-1 eight minutes into the second half.
Substitute Shane Lenehan, David McLoughlin and Stephen Donoghue pointed for Moynalvey, with Wolfe Tones’ points from Cian Ward and Thomas O’Reilly and a goal from Sarán O’Finnigan leaving it 3-15 to 0-5 after 50 minutes.
As Tones’ took their foot off the gas Moynalvey/David Mcloughlin enjoyed a scoring patch as McLoughlin hit five points in the final 10 minutes. A bad day at the office was compounded with McLoughlin sending a penalty wide of the posts in the 55th minutes.
A quick turnaround sees Moynalvey having to pick themselves up from this defeat to face Ratoath in round two, while Tones face St. Colmcilles.
