Clonmel Commercials turn focus to Ballyboden St Enda's test

Cloneml Commercials (Tipperary) 2-12 Tir Chonaill Gaels (London ) 0-9: With a couple of minutes remaining in Saturday’s quarter-final the Clonmel supporters started to drift down from the bank and move into position. 

They had witnessed Commercials make further history by extending their season into 2016 and wanted to let the players and management know their appreciation by forming a guard of honour between the Ruislip pitch and dressing rooms.

“Job done,” shouted Commericals manager Charlie McGeever as he approached the sea of green and yellow. It drew a hearty cheer that knocked the nearby television presenter out of his stride.
