The best cattle he had ever seen at any American or European dairy show, was the fulsome tribute paid by Canadian Donald Dubois after he judged last week’s Emerald Expo 2012 show in Kilkenny.

Two superbly taken converted tries in the first eight minutes paved the way for UL Bohemians’ return to Division 1A at the expense of Belfast Harlequins at Annacotty on Saturday.

A splendidly taken try by full-back Brendan Deady made all the difference for Bruff at Thomond Park last night.

The teams for this weekend's All-Ireland League fixtures have been announced.

Blackrock College will be able to call on the strike power of their Ireland U20s Andrew Conway and Brendan Macken in Division 1A against a Dolphin disrupted without their regular number eight James Coughlan, who has been called up by Munster.

Leaders Blackrock College will be looking to their Leinster Academy backs, like Niall Morris, Brendan Macken, Kyle Tonetti, Andrew Conway and Dave Moore, to open up Cork Constitution at Stradbrook.
