The Faythe Harriers star is hurling brilliantly at the moment but Wexford need more scoring outlets.
IT SEEMED ALMOST cruel to haul Lee Chin before the camera as the man of the match award after losing to Antrim last weekend. The pain and shock was as obvious as the sweat on his face, but he still did the dance of the TV obligations.
Wearing the 11 jersey, Chin was positioned on the edge of the square with the intention of using his ball-winning ability. And he excelled in that role. His total possession count was 11, including six catches from long pucks into the square. He also added an impressive turnover in the first half with a flick on his Antrim marker Niall O’Connor to earn a sideline puck for his team.
Conor McDonald was another target in Wexford’s long-ball tactics and they enjoyed some success from that as he fetched the ball twice in the first half to provide the assist for two Cian Byrne points. It was a similar story against Dublin the previous week. Chin was also the top-scorer in that game with 1-12 . He won that penalty after he fielded possession in the danger zone to draw a foul from three defenders who swarmed him. It was also the first score of the game.
Meanwhile, Rory O’Connor — who scored four points against Dublin — had one of his quieter days against Antrim with just one point from play. Cathal Dunbar and Liam Óg McGovern finished with the same tallies, while Dunbar was also taken off.
