Selector Niall Curran has stressed the need for St. Vincent's to be more ruthless after they almost threw away victory against Garrycastle.

Speaking to the Irish Daily Star ahead of Sunday's Leinster club SFC final against Rhode, Tommy Conroy's right-hand man said the reigning All-Ireland champions will have to play for the full hour - something they didn't do in the semi-final when they let a 10-point lead slip before winning by five.

"We have been less than ruthless. And that's something we need to work on," Curran admitted.

"But it is difficult to play the perfect game for 60 minutes so you try to have your purple patch, get it in and then the opposition are going to have theirs at some stage.

"What they have proved is that even though Garrycastle did come back at us, we did pull away in the end. What they do have as a panel is calmness."
