Forward power propels Galwegians into top four

Garryowen 6 Galwegians 20

Referee David Keane must have had serious reservations about allowing the game go ahead but Galwegians weren’t complaining. The conditions were tailor-made for their bigger and vastly more experienced forwards.

Garryowen didn’t help their cause when skipper Colin Varley was yellow carded just after half-time when they were still very much in the match at 10-6 but while he was off the field, Wegians struck for their second try.
