OFFALY SFC: Well done to the Seniors on Sunday last as they got this year's SFC underway with a win over St Rynagh's in Killurin. It was a fairly even first half, with Walsh Island going in at half-time one point ahead (0-5 to 0-4) although St Rynagh's had a goal bound effort pushed onto the upright by the in form Ian Duffy. The second half got off to a good start with Walsh Island taking some scores to push on to a six point lead at one stage. St Rynagh's fought back well closing that to three points with a few minutes left. Walsh Island held on well and battled hard to finish out winning 0-11 to 0-8. The team was Ian Duffy, James Gallagher, Ross Connor(1), Rory Connolly, Adrian Kiernan, Rory Connor(1), Matthew O'Connor, Alan Mulhall(4(3f)), Michael Brereton, Colm Gavin(1), Clive Murphy, Thomas Brereton, Thomas O'Connor, Gary Comerford(2) and Willie Mulhall(2).
