I thought it was an incredible performance by Dunloy
Considering - it's December against a top class team who are seen as one of the fitness and most physically conditioned club teams ever. Of course we would love to play the game in Casement Park in July but that is not how championships are played
Factor in
- County player Eoin O'Neill leaving the country for a year
- losing Woody, the mainstay of our defence for over a decade
- injury curtailing Decky Smyth involvement
- injury ruling out regular match winner Chrissy McMahon
- captain and legend Paul Shields missing from the starting line up
That's potentially a third of the team missing at the start but the lads that stepped in performed heroically
