Starlet O’Donnell injured but UL Bohs dig out win

THERE’S a youthful look about the current UL Bohemian team, but there was also maturity in the way~ they won a deserved 14-6 opening day AIB League victory over Galwegians at rain-swept Annacotty on Saturday.

Among the youthful brood is highly rated back row Tommy O’Donnell, who had to retire after just 15 minutes with a “stinger”.

O’Donnell is tipped for the top as Munster seek to unearth new back row forwards to replace some of those who have starred in Europe over the years.
