FATHER CASEY’S 2009

 

Father Casey’s won their sixth county title,

The boys under twenty one years.

When Maurice Gleeson got hold of the trophy

Mountcollins resounded with cheers.

…………..

Red cards in Mountcollins and Thurles,

But you can’t beat the game of the Gael.

Father Casey’s won’t buckle like Munster,

And Kilkenny will always prevail.

…………………

TJ the full-back is a son of Jim Leahy.

Eoin Joy is out on his own,

Backed up by the brilliant Sean Harnett

And Conor Healy from famed Glenashrone.

…………………

Eoin McEnery and Seanie O’Connell,

These wing-backs are both very sound.

John Riordan and James are first cousins,

Two hurlers who hail from the Pound.

…………………

Forget not Brian Scannell our goalie;

Donagh Kelly and young David Ward.

Derry O’Connor was really outstanding

At Mountcollins, the home of the Bard.

……………….

Three points from young Padraig McEnery;

Billy Quirke was inspiring to see.

Thomas Quilligan was great for Newcastle

And Michael scored a goal from a free.

…………….

Billy Quirke and James Riordan were injured ;

We brought on James Lane and Dan Ward.

Gerard O’Connor gave a run to Sean Flavin.

Brendan Walsh was another trump card.

……………

God bless the young men from the Fealeside,

We’re thrilled that they closed out the deal;

Maurice Gleeson came home with the trophy

To the town that is called Abbeyfeale.
