Beware the wounded hurler.......And Seanie Farrell.
Carrigtwohills Senior Hurlers maintained there senior status in a gripping encounter with Castlelyons in Ballynoe.
This was a game of two halves, the first half saw Carrig dominate their opponents in almost every position and go in at half time 6 points to the good. The cause was helped along nicely with a smashing goal from Thomas Hogan. At the interval the Large crowd must have thought that this game was over.
Castlelyons however had other thoughts, and faced with the spectre of playing Intermediate hurling next season,they came out with all guns blazing.
Their cause was aided greatly by Timmy McCarthy, who blasted home a 21 yard free to the roof of the net. From being 6 points down at half time ,Castleloyons were now a point to the good and only seven mins gone in the second half. Game on!
From where I was sitting , it was notable that Niall Mac, was still suffering with the shoulder injury, and as the match wore on, the Carrig manager Eoin O'Mahony made what was to be the master stroke of the night.
He switched Seanie Farrell and Niall Mac.

Seanie came more and more into the game and won a pile of ball.
He was able to feed Niall, now playing at full forword.
Niall blasted two fantastic goals, both goals came from Seanie Farrell passes.
This proved just to much firepower for Castleloyns, when the Final whistle sounded it was Carrig who will go into the hat for the senior hurling championship draw for 2010, and Castleloyns will play Intermediate hurling next season.

But this wasn't just about these two. This was truly a great team performance.
The Carrig Goalie, William McCarthy made some great stops, and his puckouts were very effective.Sean Lordan gave a wonderful display.Jason Barrett score some sublime points.Everyone of the Carrig players deserve great credit for the performance tonight, especially in the second half. When Castlyons asked the quistions ,Carrig came up with the answers.
Role on next Season!
