    What age group are the Ulster schools?

    U18 or U19's?
    All schools competitions are under 19s.
    Ulster Schools interpro side is Under 18. At Under 19 interpro sides are mix of schools and youths players

    Leinster schools would clean up in any all ireland schools cup.

    I'd say Inst and Methody would hold their own against the Leinster schools over a period of time, the Leinster Schools would certainly win any all Ireland cup more often than not but I don't think they'd win every year.

    From what I've heard it appears Belvo were immense in defence.

    Am I right in saying a triple double has never been done?

    Looks highly unlikely anyway - Blackrocks current crop of 5th years are poor enough I hear. Although the 2nd years are likely favourites for the J
    again next year

    Terenure are meant to have a good junior team next year. Well done to Rock.

    Yeah huge number of 2nd years on the Nure team this year. Roughly 10 or so?

    Rock will nearly always be favorites for the Junior Cup. Most schools struggle to close the big gap in skills in 3 years. Clongowes rarely feature at J's but are always strong by Seniors.

    A 2nd year of heartbreak for Belvo. Rock were very good, the back line in particular looked slick. Belvo defense was good, though letting in the 2nd try was due to some poor missed tackles. Belvo squandered a lot of possession and overlaps on the 2nd half could really have spoiled Rock's day but for a tendency to eat up their own space with the drift.

    As a venue Tallaght was fairly shocking, only 2 turnstiles open meant waiting half an hour to get into the stadium. No atmosphere about the place either - shocking venue for a match and a huge mistake on the part of the Branch which will hopefully never be repeated.

    Two from Ulster isn't great, although a lot of the MCB guys are involved with the U19s I believe.

    I assume Stockdale is the Wallace player.

    Correct on Stockdale and McIlmurray is the CCB player, same as at Christmas. Surprised at only two given the team finished second in the inter pro's earlier in the year.

    4 players from Andrews is an incredible achievement for them.

    Not sure you are correct here-you have missed Kiernan/Osborne/Guy and have included Poland/Lappin/balburnie who i understand HAVE NOT been selected. Also it is Matthew Gilsenan

    That is very interesting to see more representatives from Connacht than Ulster in a schools underage squad. fantastic to see from Connacht perspective. Disappointing that 3 separate schools in Leinster have more or as many players involved as the other three provinces

    3 Connacht lads are very good on small bit ive seen them play. Disappointing so many from Leinster compared to other provinces
