Munster release trio to boost Dolphin’s cup hopes

DOLPHIN’S hopes of an AIB Cup semi final victory over Garryowen at Musgrave Park today (2pm) have been boosted with the news that the three Munster contracted players have been released back to the club.

Julien Brugnaut, Nick Williams and James Coughlan will strengthen the Dolphin pack for the visit of the light blues as both seek a place in the January 30 final that has been fixed for Dubarry Park, Athlone.

Silverware of this importance has eluded Dolphin for years, but the Musgrave Park based club has enjoyed a significantly successful season so far under the coaching expertise of Steve Ford, who is quietly confident of a positive result today.
