    Name change is already official and is due to buying grounds in Rathfarnham

    Name change makes sense and not mooching as also buying/looking to buy grounds in Rathfarnham.

    I wasn’t being disparaging, I’m pretty sure they have some land up near Columba’s college already. I thought from the post about the league they were called Stillorgan/Rathfarnham and they were using it as a halfway house name.

    Dont see how name is halfway house. Better to use that than stay as just stillorgan IMO if they have a new ground etc.

    I think the point is that it’s laying groundwork to eventually just be called Rathfarnham - or some variation that eventually drops the stillorgan element

    I would be very surprised if they do drop it eventually. Yes the Rathfarnham area isnt greatly represented but i still would be surprised if they drop the name of club theyve had for so long.

    How long have they been Stillorgan? Would think it’s about 20 years or so. Did they change name from Salesians or were they a new outfit completely?

    The club has been around for 45 years. It was originally Salesians and changed to Stillorgan in 1994. I agree with The Lost Sheep and can't see them dropping the Stillorgan part of their name

    If they’ve already added Rathfarnham to their name I can see them dropping Stillorgan at some point, I would think they will want to identify with the local area and the double barrel name is a mouthful.assuming they build the grounds in Rathfarnham that is.

    They may be called unofficially Rathfarnham but i cant see them dropping it officially. Its a mouthful but why lose out on old name etc? It would be madness IMO
    They will be identifying with local area by adding Rathfarnham, playing there.

    If the Dublin Dogos are in Leinster League Division 3, they will not be playing same teams as the first team. There is no seconds league below 2A. So they will either have to play in one of the Metro divisions, or as happened one year, they could join an enlarged 2A seconds league. I also believe will Division 3 will be renamed 2C this year.

    I thought there was. My mistake. So if Dogos do field a second side then they'll be in Metro leagues

    Thanks for any help

    You’ll be fine, weight isn’t going to be huge factor in social rugby. Go for the nearest club with a development team and test your level. You can always move up if you’re confident at that level.

    Every club would be glad of a new player no matter what your level. If you let us know where your based we can all claim our club would be closest/ easiest.

    weight wont be an issue if playing lower level social rugby. Where are you based as that'll help recommendations for clubs.

    29 year old living in killester. Looking for a club nearby. Used to play club in Galway as a wing or full back and number 7 for school. Not sure of my level at this point tbh.

    Clontarf would be perfect. Teams at all levels. If you played in wegians/corinthians at age grade and across 7/back 3 you'll have played to decent level and will find a suitable team in no time
