Buccs Barely Hanging On To Play-Off Position After Old Wes Defeat

Tuesday, 4 April 2023 11:38

The Dublin club were much the better side in Donnybrook on Saturday.

Buccaneers will have to find some form in their last round if they're to be certain of making the Division 1B play-offs in the AIL this season.

The Westmeath club are on their worst run of results of the campaign, having lost their last three games.

Old Wesley denied the Buccs a chance of securing that play-off position with an emphatic 40-10 victory over Eddie O'Sullivan's side on Saturday.

And it's Old Wes that can knock them out of the top four if they win their last game against Naas, and Buccaneers fail to beat City of Armagh who lead the standings.

The last round of regular season fixtures takes place Saturday week, April 15th.
