Just a collection of some facts:

Tomorrow Bruff attempt to win their 10th game in a row in Division three of the AIL.

Bruff Currently have twenty two points (Not 24) scored against them in 9 AIL games. This must be some kind of a record. I’ll have to get someone to check this.

Bruff’s line has been crossed only twice to date this year in the AIL.

Bruff currently have had only four penalties and one conversion scored against them in 9 AIL games.

They currently lead Division three by Four points against their nearest rivals Instonians.

This is their third trip to Monastery Field in the AIL in four years. They have played them at home once.

Just to let you know what’s at stake tomorrow in Clifden. Have a good one guys, I can’t make it there to shout ye on or take the photos.

Well done to all involved today, five tries, three conversions one straight red and a yellow.

Bit of a mixum gatherum kinda game today, we were consistently on top, dominating the scrum completely, attacking very well and of course (Yeah I know, it’s getting monotonous now) that famous awesome defence. We waffled (About the only nice word I can use) completely in the second half, mixing it in the middle when we should have been kicking ball down the field and pinning Midleton back. To be straight we should have put more on them but that’s semantics and me being a little bit puritan if anything.

Classic moment: The one that will go down in history is when the Midleton pack ran a penalty (One of fourteen against us again today by the way), Bruff put in the tackle, stole the ball and I think I counted 11 passes in seven seconds, ending up in the corner with braq touching down. It was actually awesome (and a little scary if you were from Midleton) to watch.

9 out of 9 for the first XV, and top place confirmed again on the table tonight.
