Portaferry

Down SHC: Newry Shamrocks v Portaferry (tomorrow, Páirc Esler, 6pm) The mark of any good forward is ruthlessness.

Before it was lose one game and you’re out, so it’s good to get more games.” In tomorrow’s other match (2pm), the two teams with only outing – Ballycran and Ballygalget – meet in Ballygalget. “We stayed up in Joe McDonagh, but were maybe just one win away from a final. Newry give them a good game of it the first day and gave Ballygalget a good game, by all accounts, for 40 minutes.” More immediately, he will carry many of Portaferry’s hopes as they seek to recapture the Down senior title. The mark of any good forward is ruthlessness.
