Brin Conlon made his adult debut for Simonstown and started at midfield along side the excellent Robbie Burlingham who scored 0-3 from play. John Lunney also was in fine form scoring 1-5 from centre forward.

Ben Hoey scored 0-6 , 0-4 from frees and James Heaney and substitute Donagh Fitzpatrick added the other goals.
