ROUND TOWERS had five points to spare over Fr Manning Gaels in difficult wet and windy conditions at Pearse Park yesterday.

Playing with the advantage of the stiff breeze in the first half, Fr Manning Gaels suffered a severe setback with just 11 minutes gone when one of their county players Padraig Brady was sent off by Meath referee Peter Fox for a late tackle.
