Bredagh beat Drumaness by 3 at a very cold and windy St Colman's Park.Jody Gormley, Peter Campbell,Henry Deazley and Shane Donnelly outstanding for the winners- super goal from Conall Toland against the wind in the second half was the difference between the teams.

agree with Caitlin, just like to add one thing, the Bredagh full backline lead by the ever reliable Paul Bradly was great

glassdrumman to go the season undefeated; drumgath up as runner up - with carryduff the only team to go close.

how early is that for a prediction! lol

[lecale4]

"Carryduff to go close" - they have hardly been too impressive so far - 1 win,  1 defeat - 3-03 in their win - more like a Camogie score.
Bredagh v Drumgath this Sunday should tell a tale - Drumgath must be favourites - but you never know!

GoldenYears,
Yes an early prediction and and a good one, difficult to argue with, especially Glasdrumman who, based on the first three games, are clear favourites.
 
However, the interesting thing about Div3 is that no one ever goes through it without a defeat.  Summer hols, injuries and starred games all take their toll.  Drumgath are particularly disadvantaged in this respect so Carryduff or Bredagh could pip them.

As the season goes on watch for improved performances from Saul and Bosco, famous slow starters, who will surprise a few of the fancied teams esp at home.
