TUS Dr Harty Cup Final: Nenagh CBS triumph in Ennis

Nenagh CBS 0-20 St Flannans College, Ennis 0-18

Report By Stephen Barry at Zimmer Biomet P獺irc Ch穩os籀g for GAA.ie

Eoghan Doughan struck 0-12 in a man-of-the-match performance before lifting Nenagh CBSs second TUS Dr Harty Cup in front of 6,909 fans after a fierce tussle with St Flannans at Zimmer Biomet P獺irc Ch穩os籀g.

It took over a century for the North Tipperary schools first Harty title to arrive. Their second came just two years later at the same venue by battling back from five points behind against the hometown side.

Captain Doughan, the sole remaining starter from that triumph, took his total to 4-63 across six games as they delivered a 20th Harty title for Tipp schools, and the countys fourth in a row.

It piled more final misery on Flannans, who lost the corresponding Dean Ryan final to Nenagh two years ago and the Harty final to Thurles CBS last year.

Both sides lined out without county talents in Billy OBrien (Nenagh) and Dara Kennedy (Flannans). Amid a light fog at the Ennis venue, Flannans opened brightly by getting their inside threats into the game with Darragh McNamara and Thomas OConnor points.

Centre-back Dara ODwyer put Nenagh on the board. A Doughan free and Patrick Ryan soon had them level at 0-3 apiece.

But Nenagh wouldnt score for the next nine minutes as Flannans gained superiority across the field. Their five-point streak began and ended with those ball-winners McNamara and OConnor mining scores. In between, Harry Doherty tagged on two frees and Isaac Hassett grabbed another from play.

Trailing by 0-8 to 0-3, Nenagh made two vital switches. Doughan had been nullified at centre-forward by Conor Hill. Nenagh moved him inside, where the Moneygall stickman was able to find space breaking out to the wings. In the final 10 minutes of the half, Doughan scored points off left and right from either sideline and one from a long ball into the square.

With full- and centre-backs Shane Cleary and ODwyer swapping, that set the platform for Doughan to add three more frees. Austin Duff and Patrick Hackett, having been moved out to the half-forward line, also split the posts.

Flannans didnt hit back-to-back points for the remainder of the half, with Graham Ball and Eoin OConnor stemming the tide. They needed Dohertys fourth point to level at the break; 0-11 apiece.

McNamaras third nudged Flannans ahead, but Doughan and Joe ODwyer, back on from some treatment for a blood injury, were motoring nicely to provide Nenaghs first two-point lead.

Doherty scored from play, but missed a levelling free before Doughans 10th point reinstated their two-point advantage.

However, Darragh Ball was dropped deep to limit the supply to Doughan as Flannans came back with the next three points. Doherty slotted two placed balls, including one after James Cullinans run was cynically stopped, and Colm Daly hit the lead score.

Nenagh hadnt scored for 11 minutes now, while KJ Dunne flashed a goal attempt across the posts. ODwyer sparked them to life with a 51st-minute equaliser. The Burgess corner-forward won the first of two Doughan frees and Hackett added the other for a 0-20 to 0-17 lead.

Dohertys eighth point cut the deficit before Ryans attempts at a clinching goal was blocked by Darragh Murrihy. But once Nenagh choked up the final ball into the square, they were champions again.
