Shannon will cause many teams problems in 1A next season. Managed the season well and were super impressive in the 2nd half of the season. Their social media work is also top notch! @PrismDigital_ie @Shannon_RFC

Leinster Schools Jnr Cup Final from the best seat in the house. An exciting & tense match. Both teams had some incredible moments - but it was @NewCol_Official who were victorious over @BlackrockColl to claim their 3rd Jnr Cup. @bernardjackman @dilloncoghlan @Videosonthenet

To my AIL followers. I have also been doing commentary for Rugby Europe. Epic to see Clontarf Prop Abdaladze winning his 2nd cap for Georgia.
