Railway Union took a massive step towards a possible League and Cup double with a convincing 33 – 3 win against their main rivals and defending champions UL Bohemian.
Bohemians took and early lead through an Áine Staunton penalty. Railway looked for a replay and, despite twice being held up over the line, they took the lead before half time with Emma Taylor crossing for Nikki Caughey to convert.
Half time: Railway Union 7 UL Bohemian 3
The second half was all one way and that was the Railway as they crossed for four tries without reply!
Emer O’Mahony was the first to score in the second half and she was quickly followed by Daisy Earle to secure the game. Chloe Blackmore added the fourth and a late effort from Niamh Byrne wrapped it up for the Park Avenue side. Caughey who had a commanding game, alongside Larissa Muldoon, added four conversion in total for a final score of railway Union 33 UL Bohemian 3.
Granted it was an understrength Boh’s side but that’s a big win and Railway look to be hitting form at the right time with wins against Boh’s and Belvo in their last two matches.
