 In the second half the in form Flynn got 1-1  with further points coming from Evan McGrath, Alan Kirwan and Jack Meaney to finish the game on a scoreline of 4-12 to 0-09 , well done lads on a great display and best of luck in the Eastern Final , details which will be posted up when they come available.
