Ballynahinch brilliantly swept all before them in last season’s AIB Cup, but who will follow them as the 2009/10 competition’s champions? Will ‘Hinch become the first club to retain the title or will a side from Connacht or Leinster end their province’s wait for AIB Cup success.
All-Ireland rugby action returns this weekend with the much-anticipated opening round of fixtures in this season’s AIB Cup.
Whether a die-hard supporter or a newcomer to the game, make sure you get out to support your local club or take in a game in whatever part of the country you happen to be in on Saturday.
We will have all the results as they come in here on IrishRugby.ie, as well as a full round-up of reports.
