Six Shooters

Newry hosted Malachians at the Showgrounds in their third pre season friendly. The game saw Newry hit the goal trail as they ran out winners by 6 goals to 1. Gerard Rowe opened the scoring with an early penalty before an own goal put Newry 2 up. The visitors pulled one back before the break but Newry opened up with 4 more goals in the 2nd half. The returning Marty Havern notched a couple during his substitute cameo. Fra Murphy, who showed some nice touches on the night, scored one with Ruairi Devlin completing the rout. Trialist Stephen McCabe will have been pleased with his evening's work, and there was also a substitute appearance for promising left back Gerald Flynn.
