Harps 4-7 (19) - Sláinte 2-2 (8)
Back in goal - my specialist position - for the first half of the game, and it was good to get back. I know what I'm doing there and I don't freak out. The ball came down a few times, and I gathered it and cleared it. Second half a different story, as they put me right up the other end of the field at full-forward. I got one point, but I gave away a bunch of free kicks just because I found it difficult to challenge for the ball without fouling in an unfamiliar position. Especially against a tight fullback line (and keeper) who were giving nothing away. Respect.
I'm not sure where my best position on the Gaelic field is now. I'll go where I'm put, I suppose, but I do look forward to being able to respecialise, perhaps next year. Keeper, midfield, full-forward... all are good.
