If you're in the South Dublin area and can get along to support please do, go and see the future stars of our beloved senior provincial side take it to the man...

Connacht Under 20s Go for Title

ICRSC Crest


Connacht under 20s have a shot at inter provincial glory in Dublin tonight as they take on Leinster at 7:30pm in Donnybrook with the title very much on the line.

The home side have won twice and have a bonus point in the bag which puts them on nine points, Connach beat Munster and picked up a four try bonus point and a losing bonus point in their 34-27 defeat to Ulster so have six in second place.

It all means that Nigel Carolan and Dan McFarland's side need to win by more than seven tonight against the tournament favourites to secure an unlikely victory.

Leinster are strong, and will be hard to beat but the task is certainly not beyond the men in green who will look to play the same open running rugby they have played in the previous two games.

If your in the area and can get along set your Viedo/Sky+ f the game at the SG, and please get along to Donnybrook fro 7.30pm and shout on the lads...

Would be a fantastic boost to our Schools & Youths rugby if this group of execeptional young lads can deliever the result they require...

I thoroughly recommend checking out Griffin and O'Halloran in tandem as worth the ticket, DART. LUAS or bus fare alone. The other lads are pretty handy too. As Gal1wegian pointed out on an earlier post their win over Munster was a cracker. Anyone watching it is also encouraged to post their observations on this forum.

Yes that means ye who visit under the name of Guest. Leinster fans are also encouraged to post but only if we win. (Sm133)
