Instonians continued their perfect league campaign on Saturday afternoon with their twelfth successive bonus point win in AIL 2C, Clonmel this weeks unfortunate opponents.

I missed the start of this one. It only takes a minute or two to pop over from Newforge but then you have to spend 15 minutes looking for a parking spot at Shaw’s Bridge.

The game was scoreless on my arrival, about ten minutes in, but Instonians were on the attack and Matthew Kilpatrick went over in the corner on the 15 minute mark to start the scoreboard ticking over with an unconverted try.

Ruari O’Farrell was next to cross, six minutes later, and Jonathan Milliken added the conversion to move the scoreboard to 12 – O . . .
