Tullamore winger touches down after 21 seconds - Is this the fastest ever try in the AIL?

Jordan Conroy was quick off the mark last Saturday.

DO YOU KNOW of a faster try scored in the history of the All-Ireland league?

Itโ€™d be hard to beat Tullamore winger Jordan Conroyโ€™s effort last Saturday in their clash against Ards in Division 2B of the competition sponsored now by Ulster Bank.

Conroy showed a brilliant burst of speed to weave through the Ards rearguard and touch down after just 21 seconds. That set the tone for a comfortable afternoon for the Offaly club as they ran out 60-10 victors at Spollanstown.

    Itโ€™s like nobody seems surprised that he has just scored a pitch running amazing try . His teammates donโ€™t even come to celebrate with him. Iโ€™m not asking for a soccer celebration but itโ€™s odd

    You may not be so surprised either if you checked out Ards previous results this season

    Even though Iโ€™m a faithful Munster supporter, the local lads and girls of Tullamore do us proud and Iโ€™m always split.

    Also, call young Conroy up Joe!

    While it was lovely to hear Bill McClaren again , Conroyโ€™s try was better, way better, maybe not faster but better.
