In the aftermath of Storm Darragh, the sole remaining fixture on at Shawsbridge was the Women’s All Ireland League tie between 9th placed Cooke and league leaders, Railway Union, from Dublin. A strong, cold wind blew down the pitch causing ball handling issues.

It didn’t take long for Railway to click into gear. Ailsa Hughes opened the scoring for Railway, after 7 minutes for a 5-0 lead.

Tries followed from Amanda Berta, 12 and 17 minutes, Claire Boles, 12 minutes, Aoife McDermott 21 minutes Ailsa Hughes 24 minutes and a conversion from Amanda Berta.
