OVER the last number of weeks, I have heard a lot about St Eunan’s and how they were performing. So I headed to O’Donnell Park last Saturday evening interested to see what they were like. St Eunan’s were playing against my own club Gaoth Dobhair and with us needing the points, the pressure was all […]
St Eunan’s have high hopes
By Dáire Bonner AFTER a disappointing end to last year’s championship campaign, St Eunan’s player Brian MacIntyre is hopeful they can push on further in this year’s championship. And with a difficult draw in the first two rounds, coming up against two of the ‘big four’, they got off to the perfect start with a […]
Burt looking to bounce back
By Gerry McLaughlin BURT are hoping to bounce back after their 2-22 to 3-11 defeat to old rivals Setanta. It looked good for Burt against a weakened Setanta – if there is such a thing – when they led by 3-7 to 0-10 after 24 minutes into the game. But they could only score four […]

By Michael McMullan YOU could barely turn a sweet in your mouth in the bedlam that was St Tiernach’s Park’s presentation area on Sunday but Niall O’Donnell found enough time to pull together his thoughts. After his player of the match performance helped Donegal to glory, he was one of a glut of Donegal players […]
2023 PREVIEW HURLER OF THE YEAR AWARD
It goes without saying that hurling is an incredibly difficult sport to master, and whoever is awarded our big individual prize of Hurler of the Year in association with Ulster GAA, will be thoroughly deserving of the plaudits. Last year’s winner was Dunloy’s Ryan Elliott, the first ever time a goalkeeper has got his hands […]
Castleblayney back in familiar territory
By Niall Gartland CASTLEBLAYNEY are bidding to stretch their lead at the top of the roll of honour list when they take on St Eunan’s in Sunday’s Ulster Junior Championship final. The Monaghan side are the only team to have won the provincial title at this level on three separate occasions (2005, 2014 and 2018), […]
O’Grady and St Eunan’s look to create history on Sunday
BY DÁIRE BONNAR ST Eunan’s hurlers are just 60 minutes away from winning their first Ulster title as they go into the Junior provincial decider this weekend. It’s a huge game for the club and Conor O’Grady, who captained the Letterkenny men to the Munster Cup in 2021, is under no illusions of the task […]
Clash of the titans in Donegal
By Michael McMullan CHAMPIONS Naomh Conaill face the acid test of their credentials against St Eunan’s in Sunday’s Donegal SFC semi-final in Ballybofey. It’s a repeat of last year’s final won by Martin Regan’s men and the recent group clash that finished level, 0-9 all, in Glenties. St Eunan’s were champions in 2021, beating Naomh […]
