Civil Service 2s v Donaghadee 2s
Given the recent rain it was testament to the ground staff at the Stormont Estate that the match was able to go ahead. Starting the game and playing it are two different animals however and this was not a day for fancy handling. Both sets of forwards battled for supremacy but if either pack was the winner, its certain that entertaining rugby was not. It was left to the boots of Gareth Doherty and Andy McGrugan to see the Dee through to a 6-3 win in an ill-tempered game. As always, all was forgiven at the final whistle….until the return fixture
