CLONGOWES WOOD COLLEGE, one of the favourites to lift this year’s Leinster Senior Cup, put out a strong statement today, as they beat Castleknock College 70-8 in the First Round encounter at Donnybrook.
A hat-trick of tries from both Colm Mulcahy and Will Connors helped an impressive Clongowes outfit run riot against their below-par opponents.
With other highly-fancied sides including Blackrock and St Michael’s picking up wins over the past week, the competition looks set to intensify as it approaches its latter stages.

This could have been good, but it wasn’t
Sorry I really wanted to like this but it was brutal, the Après Match lads can rest easy.
Last part of the sketch when Charlie asked how many support a league of Ireland club summed up the west brit band wagoners bar stool vermin was met with silence.
Eh, yeah, vermin. Absolute vermin. The cheek of them
Well that was pure muck anyways
