Clonakilty 23 Richmond 26

When the ‘challengers’ win, as Richmond did in such style here in West Cork, the upheaval it causes in both clubs is remarkable.

Munster Junior champions Richmond have targeted this for a couple of years; many of the club’s committee were players on the side that last competed in the senior ranks in the late 1990s and know how valuable AIL rugby would be to the Limerick side.
