Venue: Temple Hill
Date: Sun 4th October 2009
Constitution scored an emphatic win over a gallant Douglas side in the first J2 League game of the season at Temple Hill on Sunday. Fresh from their Dennehy Cup triumph the team played with great confidence and took every opportunity to spread the play thus exposing the opposition’s weaknesses.
Constitution scored seven first half tries from Nigel Murphy, John O’Donovan, Kevin Minihane, Jack O’Sullivan and a hat-trick from Rory O’Sullivan – his second of the season. Simon Barry kicked four conversions and controlled the play superbly from the out half position to leave the half time score at 43-0.
Niall Courtney opened the second half scoring with a fine run and Tadg Buckley, Dave O’Brien, Jack O’Sullivan and Killian O’Connor all scored before Rory O’Sullivan completed the rout when he collected Tadg Buckley’s cross kick. Simon Barry added one conversion.
