Contrasting Fortunes For Buccanneers And Tullamore AIL Week 3

Buccs are now up to 3rd in the Division 2A table.

Buccaneers moved up to 3rd in the AIL after recording their second win of the season against Nenagh Ormond.

Kolo Kirpati's charges bounced back from a narrow defeat to Ballymena last week and now sit above them in the table. 

Next up for Buccs is a very winnable looking trip to basement boys Old Crescent on Saturday week in what looks a great chance to secure a try bonus point. 

BUCCANEERS:

R.Fallon; R.O’Connor, S.Layden, S.Mannion, T.McGann; M.Hanley, A.Flanagan; J.Kelly, D.Adamson, M.Staunton; R.Byrne, D.Qualter; C.Booth, E.Galvin (captain) and T.Maree. Replacements:- E.O’Reilly (for Flanagan, h/t), S.O’Connell (for Kelly, 62 mins), D.Browne (for Adamson, 62mins), R.Murphy-Sweeney (for O’Connor, inj. 64 mins), K.Kiripati (for Maree, 71mins), J.Kelly (for Staunton, 71 mins) and K.Kiripati (for Galvin, temp. 15/18mins).

Meanwhile a couple of rungs below in Division 2C, Tullamore's unbeaten start to the season came to an end at the hands of second placed Skerries on their artificial surface in Dublin. 

36-5 the final result. 

The Offaly side return to their home pitch in two weeks time to take on table toppers Enniscorthy.
