Consistent Performers Stand Out In Division 1B Scoring Stakes

Faloon got over in the right corner to score a crucial 77th-minute try during Armagh’s Ulster derby win over Queen’s University. It means he has scored in three successive games for Chris Parker’s men, who have moved up to second in the table.

Fellow back-three player Byrne also continues to impress with his finishing skills. He sped over the try-line twice against UCC, both from Matty Lynch assists, as Trinity won the Dudley Cup challenge match at the Mardyke on a 24-7 scoreline.

The group of players on three tries now includes Ulster’s John Andrew, who starred with a hat-trick on his Instonians debut, as well as Inst centre Bevan Prinsloo, UCC’s Chris Barrett, and Naas centre Paddy Taylor, who all notched their third scores of the season last weekend.

Meanwhile, Tom Larke is still the division’s top points scorer, sitting on 39 points after kicking two conversions in Old Wesley’s first defeat of the season, away to Instonians. Just four points back is Trinity playmaker Lynch, who tallied up nine points in Cork.

Blackrock College out-half Tim Corkery (pictured below) had a big influence on their hard-fought 18-15 triumph over Garryowen. He took his season’s haul to 29 points after scoring a 48th-minute try along with eight points from the tee.

Ulster Under-19 captain Owen O’Kane is just a point behind Corkery, following three successful kicks for Armagh against Queen’s. Tom Bohan, who is on 20 points, clipped over two important conversions as Naas broke their duck at home to Highfield.
