Chris Roe delighted as Dolphin prevail in do or die battle with Old Wesley

Dolphin 22 Old Wesley 10: Relief for Dolphin who jumped from the bottom spot in Division 1B of the Ulster Bank League and have now given themselves a fighting chance of avoiding the dreaded drop.

This victory pushed them two points clear of fellow relegation contenders Galwegians and coach Chris Roe wasn’t too concerned by the failure to grab a bonus point. “I would have settled for a 3-0 win to be honest, but we showed a lot of character out there to do much better than that.

“Yes, there were things we didn’t do well, but we got the start we needed. We went on a bit of a lull after that and even though we went on to score three tries I wasn’t very comfortable until the referee blew the final whistle.
