Shocks

#187 Night of shocks

by Cu Chulainns on January 31, 2011

It was all happening for the penultimate round-robin week of the 2011 Wellington Mixed Gaelic Football Sevens last night as some of the top fancies for next weeks finals bit the dust at Ian Galloway Park.
Early tournament runners, Empire Strikes Back and Flannagans Flyers looking hot in the past two weeks, ran out of steam Wednesday when comprehensively defeated by new favourites T-Shirt Time and Clonbony Abu respectively. ’Time and Clonbony, who meet in the first semi next week, would have been amongst the front-runners for overall victory but it was the manner of Empire’s’ and ‘Flyers demise that came as a shock.
The other team along with ’T-Shirt Time to come out of Group A was Molly Malone’s, who falling to the former in their first game, saw a last minute goal in their next match against Dasey’s Midnight Runners put them into the semi finals. 
The improving Monster Munchers was the second team to advance out of Group B with an impressive win over Clonbony in their first game, and with a four point margin to spare over Cu Chulainn Crew in their second.
Here to fill us in on Wednesday’s action is Wellington GAA President, Donal Kavanagh.

#105 Shocks galore to open London Championship

by Cu Chulainns on June 13, 2010

Parnells also got off their championship off to a good start with a two point win over Fulham Irish on Saturday at Ruislip. (Photo courtesy of Parnells GFC, London).

There was a plethora of shocks at Ruislip for the start of the 2010 London GAA Football and Hurling Championships last weekend. In mens senior football we saw last year’s intermediate champions St Kiernans take on and beat their senior counterparts, Tir Chonail Gaels in a great game. In senior hurling meanwhile, the surprises continued as 2009 senior champs St Gabriels lost out to Sean Treacys by two points in another nail biter, and, as if that wasn’t enough many peoples fancy for this year’s hurling title, Robert Emmetts fell to Kilburn Gaels also by a brace. To tell us about those games and the rest of the football and hurling action over the weekend is London GAA Chairman, Tommy Harrell.
