Our victorious 18s
(thats taylor bottom left without the hair) yoo

Our 18s made the journey to the back pitch of Thomond park on Sunday where Newcastle West in the 18 cup final this time has provided us with some excellent rugby all season but were up against a very good Newcastle West outfit, we got of to a good start and after winning a penalty we went to the corner after winning our line out we mauled over to take a 5-0 lead. We took a 10-3 lead in at half time and even though we had the greater possession we hadn’t shown it on the scoreboard. We scored again after half time to go 15-3 ahead but N/West replied with a drop goal to keep in touch at 15-6. Credit to Newcastle they continued to press but we managed to get the upper hand with a penalty try to go 22-6 ahead. Newcastle made it 22-11 with an excellent try of their own but we had the final score of the game to finish 29-11. Try scorers Darragh Browne Adam o Dwyer Patrick Lloyd Mark Fitzpatrick

Our 18s played Young Munsters in the 18 cup on Sunday morning, conditions were ideal for rugby and both teams didn’t disappoint in what was a really enjoyable game of rugby. The first half was even with bruff just shading it 11-6 with Patrick Lloyd getting the bruff try. Young Munsters levelled after half time but bruff went ahead through Sean Frawley and scored further try’s from mark fitzpatrick and again from Patrick Lloyd to see out the game 30-11.

Our 18s travelled to garryowen on Friday night last in the pan Munster league,and in a high scoring encounter saw the lads come away with a cracking win on a scoreline of 36-24 . What made this win more impressive was that we were behind 17-7 at half time 5 try’s scored in the second half sees this team continue an excellent season coming on the back of wins in Waterford last week and an excellent win against young Munster the previous week in the north Munster league final. Try’s from Tony o Connell Darragh Browne Kieran o Dwyer Adam o Dwyer Niall Mitchell and Sean Frawley plus 3 converts from Adam Frawley finished off an excellent 2nd half display.
