The Rugby in Ireland is in safe hands, after a fantastic match between Tallaght U8 and Clondalkin U8.

The level of rugby was superb in the first of 2 friendlies. Both teams showed great skill, power and speed in the nail biting match.

With all players on the field these mighty monsters had the crowd of spectators and parents cowering on the side lines. Players like Daniel Anderson, Eoghan Bradley and James Taylor showing their experience of playing rugby 1 year with fantastic tackling. Daniel Fanning showed great running and speed to score trys. Aaron Hulsman was the smallest player on the pitch but showed the biggest heart when getting stuck in. The Kinehan Brothers Callum and Jayden showed great team work and power when tackling and passing, the Kearney brother better watch out. Tallaght RFC even welcomed in 2 new players and a special mention to Ross and Ben for playing fantastically well.

Clondalkin RFC U8 were also up to the task and tackled fantastically well while scoring trys to match Tallaght at every turn. The game ended in a draw and both teams sharing the spoils. Thank you to Clondalkin for the welcome and hospitality.

A return match will be announced soon. Have a look at the pictures below and Tallaght are in the red bibs.

Don’t stop Believing.
