Listen: ‘We really showed what St Eunan’s are about’

THERE WAS the same purpose about Caolan Ward in the post-match interview as there had been in the preceding hour from St Eunan’s.

The black and amber answered questions that lingered in emphatic fashion with a ruthless destruction of Milford.

Eoin McGeehin netted a hat-trick as St Eunan’s eased to a 5-22 to 0-11 win, on an evening when all bar one of their scores came from play, with 11 different scorers registering. 

“We really showed what St Eunan’s are about in that game,” Ward told Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub after the game.

“For once this year, we came with a ruthless team and we were going to make sure that Milford were never going to get a chance to come back into the game. It was a very pleasing performance.

“We have been slow to start so we wanted to make sure that we were in control and on top early on. We did that. A lot of young boys stood up and showed what they’re about.”

St Eunan’s were 3-12 to 0-7 up at half-time and there was no let up as they powered into the last four.

Ward indicated that St Eunan’s believe they can now challenge for Dr Maguire.

He said: “Everything you’ve read or talked about, it’s about a Kilcar or Gaoth Dobhair final. No-one is giving us much of a chance.

“Fair enough, if that’s the way they want to see it. We know what intention we have in our squad and we don’t have to prove that to anyone else.”
