Current positionIn the final games, ( 9th of March), we travel to Waterpark and Clanwillian host Fethard and District, so a win would see us Champions, (indeed a draw might be enough). In any event both ourselves and Clanwilliam are promoted.

With 15 minutes gone, this result did not look on. The visitors were on top, they pushed 6-0 ahead as we conceded numerous penalties and had a man in the bin. We finally woke up and on 17 Minutes Jack Lonergan got over for a try. . WE now began to hum and Sean Crowe had a scrum half's try. (Laz looks pleased).
The visitors added a penalty, before Conor Dolan got in on the act with try number three.
Harry Martin again added the points and would go on to convert 9 out of ten kicks. Just on the half time whistle, Laz sliced through for the bonus point try to leave us 26 pts to 9 at the break.
The game was done and dusted at this stage, especially as Conor had an early second half try. Laz added three more tries, Nibbler, who impressed off the bench, and Dave Ahearn finished off the rout as Harry kept knocking over the conversions. All in all, a fine display after a shaky start, but we can not afford to take Waterpark lightly if we want some silverware this season. Some more pictures from today.
