I was down at the Coláiste an Phiarsaigh v Coláiste an Spioraid Naoimh game last Monday at PUíC, the only Barrs or Bishopstown players I saw involved in the Celtic Challenge was Calum Caplice (played really well), also Conor O'Donoghue (sub on minor team). I didn't see any of the rest of the City Celtic Challenge players involved- are they making the school team? You'd be expect 5th years to be making a Cork Colleges B team.City were impressive today down the pairc, v wexford with a good win, great work rate and a tight game throughout. A bit of a luck went their way with the goal from Philips, but you take them all. Pretty impressive so far in both matches particularly with no minors and when you see tipps gold team that they played last week (apparently their '3rd team'????) put up 8-32 v Down today! Isn't that Down team the actual minor team for them?
Calvin Ó Donnabháin (Mayfield) was immense for Coláiste an Phiarsaigh, not sure what age he is. I think they had the following involved in the East Cork Celtic Challenge Finin O'Donovan, Cullen Condon, Jack Tierney and Daire Cummins (sub).
Does anyone know if Coláiste an Spioraid Naoimh captain Seán Lombard is any relation of former Cork Minor Brendan Lombard?
