Junior Rugby Focus: Joy for Richmond after exciting final

Richmond controlled the opening half and were well worth their 6-0 half-time lead after a penalty from Brián Bennett and a drop goal by Wayne Murphy. Bennett extended the lead with a try early in the second half.

Jack O’Mullane opened Galbally’s account with a penalty, but a second Bennett penalty left Richmond 14-3 ahead. The game then went to uncontested scrums and Galbally dominated the final quarter, but their only reward was a try from Jack Hogan.
