The fact they came back from a heartbreaking two point loss to Irish Travel Partner Saits - making the long return journey to the INEC - showed a honest character in a side that might well have been demoralised. It speaks volumes for the spirit rekindled by the experienced Mark Scannell as he set about rebuilding the side.
