Mitchelstown/Galbally 0 – 56 Old Christians RFC ⚫🟡🔴
A postcard picture was the perfect way to describe Galbally this morning! 🌞
At the foot of the Galtee Mountains, with the sun shining and a slight north-easterly breeze blowing down the pitch, it was a beautiful setting for a morning of rugby.
Led by Jack, Oscar and Sean, the squad took to the heavy pitch in their new kit and wasted no time making their mark against a combined Mitchelstown/Galbally side.
Number 8 Jack Travers got things underway with an early try inside the opening five minutes. From there, the tries kept coming, with Ryan finishing out wide, Jack Travers crossing again, full-back Jack Dolan getting in on the action and John O’Regan adding another from centre. Old Christians headed into the break firmly in control at 0–27.
The second half saw Toby Hinchy make an immediate impact after coming on in the front row, crossing for a lovely try to take the score beyond the 30-point mark. With the game firmly in our hands, the lads continued to show their quality, trying out different moves and adding further scores, with both Jack Travers and Sean Hughes crossing twice.
👏 An outstanding team performance from 1 to 23!
A special mention to Sean Buckley, who stepped up to prop and delivered a fantastic performance, and to Jack Dolan at full-back, whose try-saving tackles ensured we kept a clean sheet.
⭐ PLAYER OF THE MATCH – Joshua Lyons
Joshua was a constant handful with ball in hand today. His powerful carrying and ability to break through tackles made him an incredibly difficult player for the opposition to contain. Thoroughly deserved!
A brilliant performance, 56 points scored, a clean sheet and plenty of smiles on a beautiful morning in Galbally.
Well done to all the players and coaches! Onwards and upwards.
ONE CLUB. ONE COMMUNITY.
