Raharney manager Brendan McKeogh is warning his players to be prepared for the Clonkill backlash should the sides meet again in the senior hurling final in four weeks’ time.
That follows last Sunday’s 2-14 to 1-14 victory for Raharney, a result which ensured them of a place in the Westmeath showpiece on 7 November. An unanswered 0-6 in the final quarter paved the way for victory, after Clonkill had produced a superb fight back during the third quarter to wipe out an eight-point lead and forge two ahead.
