Much needed win

On a cold wet miserable night the under 18’s hosted Dolphin for our next league match. The game was started quickly by Dave getting over the line Rob wasn’t able to convert it under the tough weather conditions. Next on the score sheet was Jake who scored near the posts making the conversion easier for Rob, Jake was at the bottom of the next try a well worked forwards maul seen the boys over the line and stretching out their lead to 17 nil. Jack got the last try of the half also unconverted. Bringing the half time score Old Christians 22 – 0 Dolphin.

At the start of the second half Dolphin had a better period of play the Old Christians defense held strong and kept them out.  The scoring was gotten under way by the 2 biggest forward Daniel scored and then Paul scored both converted by Rob. Rob then burst through for his try right between the post which he quickly converted and final try of the game was by Josh unconverted. A much needed confidence boost in the middle of the league. 8 tries in total 4 in each half 4 of them converted bringing the full time score to Old Christians 48 – 0 Dolphin.

Our next match is a friendly against Killarney on the 10th of November ko 12.30 our next league match is against Douglas/Carrigaline away ko 12.30.
