Tallow 1-14 Ballyduff 016
The Golfer Gary Player once said 'The secret to playing well is not how good your good shots are but how good your bad shots are'
This was evident for Tallow on Sunday as we survived a poor first half to go in at the break only three points down.  Thomas Ryan ran and worked and suddenly we were four points clear and the match was there for us.  When we needed William Henley he produced two great points for us in the first half to prevent Ballyduff from getting out of sight and never let his workrate drop despite being outnumbered on puckouts and when Ryan Grey was needed in the first half he was acurate and kept the scoreboard ticking over.
It was a great game of bluff and counter-bluff as James Murray and Stephen Molumphy circled one another.  Molumphy was at the centre of everything good that Ballyduff did in the first half and was outstanding in the last ten minutes, his catch and score to reduce the deficit to one point in injury time being worth the price of admission alone. 

Gallant in Defeat
In truty this game could have gone either way.  To lose out by such a slender margin in a senior county Semi Final is bound to be heartbreaking for any team.  Ballyduff were both dignifed and magnanimous in the aftermath of the game and we thank then for their congratulations and genuine well wishes.

Comhghairdeas:
Hearty congratulatins to senior selector Stuart Barry and his wife Aileen on the birth of baby Adam.  I hear Stuart is after buying him a hurley already, Starting young!

County Final
The County final is set for Sunday, October 18th at Walsh Park.  Reaching a county final brings with it numerous expenses which unfortunately have to be met.  With this in mind our club would be sincerely grateful to anyone who feel they would be able to contribute - however big or small.  

National Draw
Tickets are currently in circulation in town for the National Car Draw. There are some fantastic prizes and most importantly all money raised is retained by the club.  Tickest are 10 euro each and can be purchased from most committee members. 

Support
Your continued support to the senior hurlers has been amazing!! it would be fantastic to see the town a sea of blue and gold for the next few weeks so dig out the hats/scarfs/flags and headbands and get behind the lads for the big one!!
Best of luck to Cois Bhride minor hurlers in the county final, this Saturday at Walsh Park.  This game has a 2pm throw in.
