The Offaly champions were well beaten by Kilmacud Crokes in Westmeath on Saturday.
Naomh Ciaran have raised the standards for future teams at the club by reaching the Leinster senior football final.
That's what their manager Tom Browne is saying after seeing his side vanquished by the now two-time provincial champions, Kilmacud Crokes, on Saturday.
The final score in Kinnegad was 4-18 to 1-10.
Naomh Ciaran conceded three goals in the first half but managed to draw the second period against the Dublin club.
Browne says the Offaly club will bounce back from the disappointment:
