Scariff have been crowned intermediate hurling champions after deservingly emerging victorious against Tubber on Sunday evening.
It’s been a whirlwind two year period for Domhnall McMahon.
There’s one glaring difference between Sunday’s finalists and the remainder of the clubs who have been relegated since the senior championship overhaul in 2014.
A momentum-fuelled Tubber blitzed St Joseph’s Doora/Barefield with five timely goals to power through to their third Intermediate Hurling Final in four years.
With a tally of 5-10 between them the sparkling form of Domhnall McMahon and the Earley brothers Clive and Blaine proved too much for Sixmilebridge in this intermediate hurling championship quarter final tie at Eire Og on Sunday afternoon.
