Not true spoofer. A hard fought game with lots of big hits and plenty of passion. Clane feel unlucky not to win without feeling that the result was undeserved. Could have gone either way. Both Teams and the ref were clapped in. anyone not in either teams applauding line was shaking hands with their counterpart on the pitchthe spoofer wrote:Groundhog,
Big win indeed for Longford with lenght of pitch last minute try. L'ford dominated for most of game but let Clane in for two tries.
Did not go down well with Clane who allegedly did not applaud the Longford team off the pitch!!!

Terrible start for the boys from Rosetown, could the Newbridge go straight back down.
Also a disappointing start from North Kildare, it could be a long season for the Kildare clubs in div 2.
Will Cill Dara possibly turn it around after last Sunday, next game away to Kilkenny crucial dare I say it to avoid the relegation dogfight.
K4 currently flying the lilywhite flag, but Seapoint look invincible. :

LL3:
Arklow v Clondalkin
Birr v Swords
Clane v Athboy
CYM v Tullow
Gorey v Malahide
Rathdrum v Balbriggan
Wexford v Longford
Few interesting ones. Clashes between Arklow/Clondalkin and Birr/Swords will have a big bearing on the mid-table battle, while Gorey will struggle against Malahide. Longford and Clane will, barring a big shick, win their respective games, but the Rathdrum/Balbriggan game is a big one for both sides. The other top 4 side, Tullow, face CYM in what will be a very tough game for us, even at home. Unless we start delivering on our potential, having yet to actually play as well as we can this year, we'll struggle against a Tullow side with a 100% record.

Cill Dara look doomed at this stage, and Seapoint look firm favourites for me.

If they don't beat Mullingar at home this Sunday, well then good-luck, we don't deserve to be in Division 1, were leading Kilkenny 17-5 with 25 minutes to go, Kilkenny had greater hunger and deserved their victory, where is the pride gone? From Monkstown down are all in the relegation battle....Cill Dara look doomed at this stage, and Seapoint look firm favourites for me.

Cill Dara's next 2 games are against Mullingar & Monkstown if they dont pick up points in both these games it could be all over before Christmas.groundhog wrote:Cill Dara look doomed at this stage, and Seapoint look firm favourites for me.
Leadership & discipline have been lacking this season, its time for the senior players to stand up & be counted. There are players living on past memories who must perform or be dropped.

Well Cill Dara returned to winning ways and with suspensions and injuries easing I fully expect to pull away from the relegation zone starting with a home win against a Monkstown side that look in trouble, also rumours of in club fighting surfacing from D4. Mighten be a better time to play the aristocrats. The game against Mullingar was a dour affair but the result was never in doubt...
Seapoint are still favourites but their game against Naas could be the title decider.

Division 1 Winners?
I have played against both Naas and Seapoint this season and obviously got beaten both times! However, I think that Naas will just pip Seapoint to the the post. Seapoint are very positive in the style of rugby they are playing but they have quite a small, but very well organised, front 5. Naas have a much larger pack and are also well organised, but there biggest advantages are experience and intelligence. They know what it takes to nullify the opposition and can carry it out. However, if Seapoint can cancel out Melville, then they might sneak it.
Certainly an exciting tie coming up, but I think Naas to win and then win the league.

Spanner in works
Ignore the last comment as God only knows what will happen now that Navan have thrown a spanner in Naas' works. Almost a soap opera!

Good wins for Navan, Cill Dara and Tullamore on Saturday. The Navan result was unexpected and a pity in a way as 2 horse race would have been exciting. Cill Dara pipped Monkstown in a thriller but was great to see the hunger and desire back, discipline is still posing a problem though.

Naas's two strengths are size and organisation......and experience...
Naas's three strengths are size, organisation, and experience....... and intelligence...
Naas's four strengths are are size, organisation, experience, and intelligence........ and the ability to nulllify opposition........
Naas's five strengths are are size, organisation, and experience, intelligence, and the ability to nulllify opposition...........and...
(Not taking the piss, just reminded me of the sketch that's all... One of my favourite MP one's)..
As for the game, it'll be very much on the day I suspect. If the weather is decent enough and the pack get a decent share of possesion then the backline will guarantee a Seapoint win...
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even. Muhammad Ali
