Niall Coleman opened our second half scoring with a point after two minutes to give us a two point lead, Caltra added two more points before Damien Burke pushed us one ahead on eight minutes but we were not to score again until the twenty sixth minute when Damien shot his fourth point but by then Caltra had added three points to there total to give then a point victory and leave us without a win in the league so far as we have two draws and two defeats after round four of the competition.
