Tighten up, what sort of place are they running there ?
Will be interesting to see if the locals turn out to watch or go to Armagh, Rory is heading to Armagh for a start.

Good idea would have been to hold the A match in Armagh after the Armagh v Banbridge match, would have got a good crowd out to watch.

Herron going backwards still... what a waste of £70K to sit on the bench for the A's with the prospect of not getting anywhere near Pro 14.

Our 10 at Stortford, George Cullen, is IQ and a Varsity winner for Oxford.

Kicked 5 pens in our narrow defeat at Coventry last week and played against us last year for London Scottish.

Well done Banbridge. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

No but then again it was hardly advertised, I would suspect both team were evenly matched as both look to be scratch teams, will be interesting to see if they boost the squad next week as Cornwall will be a tam of big bruisers who are just a tad to fat for premiership.

A lot of the Banbridge faithful were in Armagh for their own match, it was a stupid place to have the B&I cup match, common sense would have run it as a double header in Armagh or else kept it in Belfast.

Our 2nds are in the same league as their 2nds.

We're 7th in the third tier. He kicked 15 points yesterday.

Come and watch him the day before the Quins game.
