Walls and McAllister steer Clontarf to top spot

CLONTARF powered to the top of the AIB League’s Division One with a great victory over Garryowen at Castle Avenue.

The north Dublin side overcame the treacherous conditions to produce a marvellous performance and none did better than half backs Mike Walls and David McAllister.

Mark Hewitt grabbed the opening dry before Conor Mahony powered in for a second. David Moore got the third and McAllister’s conversions ensured that ‘Tarf were on their way. Gerry Hurley’s two first half penalties were mere consolation efforts for Garryowen.
