Nobber 0-12 St Colmicille 2-5 Nobber made it two wins from two in this years IFC thanks to a hard fought victory over St Colmcille's in this game played on Thursday evening in Slane. After a long delay in the opening moments of the game due to a serious injury to the Colmcille's no.8 Nobber were the first to settle and led by 4 points to 1 after 24 minutes and seemed to be in control.
