Students bid to bring a halt to Shannon’s charge

SHANNON may have turned the tables with a resounding 55-22 victory over UCD in Limerick last season, but they will be conscious that the students have a habit of reserving their best when playing at home and, indeed, won that encounter two years ago 31-29.

Shannon have also taken note of the well deserved 27-27 draw earned by UCD at Temple Hill last weekend when they became the first team to take a point from Cork Constitution.

But with three games gone in the League, Shannon are very happy with their performances.
