O’Gara And Graham Still Top After High-Scoring #EnergiaAIL Round

Round 4 in Energia All-Ireland League Men’s Division 1A produced an average of eight tries per match. St. Mary’s College sharpshooter Mick O’Gara and Ballynahinch winger Ethan Graham remain the leading points and try scorers respectively.

O’Gara landed four of his conversion attempts at UCD to take his season’s haul to 49 points. He has a 17-point lead over his closest rival, Old Belvedere’s David Wilkinson, who split the posts once in their 34-12 defeat to Clontarf.

‘Tarf out-half Conor Kelly (31 points) has moved up to third following that win at Ollie Campbell Park, while there were 10-point kicking contributions from James Tarrant (Lansdowne), Conor Rankin (Ballynahinch), and Terenure College’s Aran Egan last weekend.

Ulster Academy player Graham (6 tries) remains out in front as the division’s top try scorer, but Young Munster’s Hubert Gilvarry is hot on his heels following his fifth try of the campaign during their 40-35 loss to Lansdowne.

With four scores in as many games, Clontarf’s talismanic captain Dylan Donnellan has now scored an outstanding 80 All-Ireland League tries in the space of four years.

Also sitting on four tries after this season’s opening four rounds are Cork Constitution duo Danny Sheahan and Jack Kelleher, UCD hooker Duinn Maguire, and Terenure youngster Dan Martin, who bagged a brace against Nenagh Ormond.

Lansdowne skipper Andy Marks (pictured below) also had a try double against the Cookies to open his 2025/26 account. The hugely entertaining clash at Tom Clifford Park saw winger Orin Burke touch down twice for the hosts.
