Malone maintained their place at the top of Ail 1B with a hard fought win against, Ulster rivals, Banbridge on Saturday afternoon at Gibson Park.
The Malone tries came from Nathan Brown in the first half and FRU favourite Peter Cooper in the second, Rory Campbell keeping the scoreboard turning over with three penalties.
