Summer League Results

Tonight Brocoli put in two solid performances to make the final of the Dublin Club Summer League. Our quarter-final was against Tallaght It (helped by few Juniors pick ups & Jay)and we ran up a 10-0 score before they scored. A combination of a decent zone and some mistakes on their behalf added up to a pretty one-sided game. A couple of lovely hammers saw Tallaght draw a point back but it was too little too late and the end score was 13-1.



Our semi-final was against Care Bear Massacre (Blonde, Stokesy, Simon, Sam and co.) who had won their quarter handily as well. It was a tough game from the start with neither team giving an inch. Carebear's offence was calm and decisive but a few end zone drops cost them dear. We converted a few of them but could never get more than 3 points ahead. We tried zone and fronting but to little avail. They combined well as handlers and strung 30-40 passes together to score in one point. However, we kept getting Ds and ended up winning by 3, 11-8 I think. A really tight game and fun run around.




So, in two weeks we pay the final, having lost only one game (due to forfeit after not fielding enough players) and looking stronger by the week. Hard to tell who it'll be against with Juniors 1 and Trinity both looking strong. Looking forward to it!
