Should the Malahide and Bruff game not be on in Bruff as Bruff finished ahead of them in the table?

Apologies, thought it was in Dublin. Definitely backing Bruff at home then.

I take it neither of the semi finals are on tv tomorrow? I’m planning on going to Clontarf, but it would be nice to be able to record the other one!

Hopefully UCC can win next week as better spread of clubs in top flight then as better not to have 6 Dublin sides in top flight.
5 Dublin, 2 Cork, 2 Limerick and Ballynahinch would be ok.

1A Final Cork Con v Clontarf

Should be an excellent final this weekend. 2 really good teams with some excellent talent. Very hard to pick between them really.

1B UCC v Old Wesley

Big ask for Old Wesley playing away with only a 6 day turnaround and extra time in their last game. Both teams play some attractive rugby so great game for the neutral observer.

OldRio

The final is live on RTE2 at 2.45 Sunday.

UCC have won the play off against Old Wesley and will be in 1A next year

Not surprised but also would have said either team could have gotten it impressed with Wesley’s style of play tbh. Score?

Game just kicked off
Anyone watching?

Squidgy Black

Fantastic try by Con there.

Been a tetchy start for both sides, we've been just trying to hold on to the ball as much as possible and not really going anywhere with it, up until the try Con hadn't seen much of the ball. Will be interesting to see if it opens up a bit more now.

The Lost Sheep

Try 2 for Con. 14-3. Great score by Jermyn. Clontarf just making silly mistake that Con capitalise on
