    I know others would be far more in tune with this than me, but do know that Howard Noonan is at Old Wesley with his brother. They had it up wishing him luck on their social media few weeks back.

    Think the lads coming out of school, on the whole, would depend on the CAO offers which is probably this week.

    Leinster League Results

    Old Belvedere 22 UCD 21

    Old Wesley 18 Clontarf 19

    St Marys 46 Trinity 24

    Lansdowne 31 Terenure 14

    Blackrock 17 Greystones 19

    Enniscorthy 14 Naas 22

    Great win for Marys over Trinity - big margin there

    Very happy with our win over Terenure. Both teams clearly missing a lot of players but a very physical tough game with no quarter given from either side



  • Registered Users Posts: 882 ✭✭✭Lsdrugbyfan


    Heard AIL Mick McCormack(St. Marys) is training with leinster seniors at the moment.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭Stainalert


    Anyone got anymore transfer news ? Going to try and compile it all here and put up here in one large post



  • Registered Users Posts: 882 ✭✭✭Lsdrugbyfan


    Ben Griffin is with Clontarf now, Trinity last season.



  • Registered Users Posts: 628 ✭✭✭Chico Flores


    Yeah, told we fairly dominated in the scrum but Lansdowne were very clinical and full value for the win.

    Danny Kenny, ex pro for Ealing and over in Italy in with Greystones as player coach

    Conor Dean gone back to St Marys

    The Sligo captain from last few seasons, Shane Hehir, has joined Belvo

    Ian Cassidy is back at Wesley from America and Nathan Randles from Shannon has joined them (but think that happened in 2020 for the Community Series)



  • Registered Users Posts: 628 ✭✭✭Chico Flores


    Few more for your list, asked a few lads I went to college with who are in different clubs, some you might know already

    Corey Reid: Buccaneers to Lansdowne

    David Moran: UCD to Lansdowne

    Kyle Cahir: Nenagh to Belvo

    Robbie Deegan: Shannon to Belvo

    Dominic Day (recent ex UK Pro) to Malahide

    William Fay: Lansdowne to Old Wesley

    Sean Goodburn: Barnhall to Wanderers



  • Registered Users Posts: 38 Purple Fox


    Terenure have signed a centre from UCC Peter Sylvester



  • Subscribers Posts: 41,644 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    what brings dominic day to malahide? i thought injury forced his retirement



  • Registered Users Posts: 628 ✭✭✭Chico Flores


    A glance on Social Media shows he is married to that Irish model one Nadia Forde, assume they are living here now


    Don't know much on the Munster clubs, other than watching them play, but got these too for your list Stainalert

    Bailey Faloon: Garryowen to Young Munster

    James Kendrick: Cashel to Garryowen

    UCD side for last weekend: 15 Harry Donnelly; 14 Ross Deegan; 13 Jack Ringrose (Capt); 12 David Ryan; 11 Alex O’Grady; 10 James Tarrant; 9 Robert Gilsenan; 1 Chris Hennessy; 2 Bobby Sheehan; 3 Evin Coyle; 4 Jack Gardiner; 5 Bobby Leahy; 6 Dan O’Donovan; 7 JJ Landers; 8 Ronan Foley. Replacements (all used): 16 Richie Bergin; 17 Rob Byrne; 18 Alec Byrne; 19 Simon Burke; 20 Tom Foley; 21 Niall Carroll; 22 David Heavy


    full game here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXRc-0WV5MI&ab_channel=DeclanCassidy


    Bobby Sheehan is a battering ram. still not sure i'd have taken McKee over him last summer. Moved to 6 in the 2nd half too. 

    Sheehan and Gilsenan combine to score a try here: https://youtu.be/kXRc-0WV5MI?t=3982

    Gilsenan gone off, thought he played well.. hopefully he can stay healthy and get a good run at it

    Bobby Sheehan very impressive too, along with Foley.

    Buccaneers v Corinthians and Ballina v Galwegians this weekend in Connacht league

    Sligo are unbeaten at top but not playing this weekend. Lead Ballina by 3 so win for Ballina in their final game puts pressure on Sligo though if Ballina were to lose it could open door for Corinthians

    Great game of rugby. Surprised to see how dominant Belvo were in the scrum. I think the ref was extremely generous to UCD on a few of those scrum calls too. Front 5 had no answer at times.

    Belvos lineout was an absolute shambles until they started throwing to the front. I think they lost 5 on the bounce? UCD very impressive in that area. Good movement and excellent jumpers.

    Belvo probably deserved winners on balance. They left some absolute sitters out there. Need to work on the last pass. 3 times I counted one last pass to score.

    The Buccs v Corinthian game should be a good game as both teams will be ramping up for AIL and neither club will want to lose this game. Ballina are flying at the moment and galwegians will be hammered again if they don't play their best players



  • Registered Users Posts: 628 ✭✭✭Chico Flores
