I XV REPORT:
Galwegians pulled off one of the greatest ever comebacks when they snatched victory right at the death against rivals Buccaneers in an enthralling local derby at Dubarry Park on Saturday. Despite being 22 points adrift at one stage, a Colin Conroy try in the very last play of the game gave the Blues their third bonus point victory in four outings, which keeps them top of UBL Division 1B.

These two sides have served up some memorable contests in recent years, but few could match this one for drama in a game which had absolutely everything. Buccaneers were clearly up for this one, aiming to avenge their recent Connacht Senior League defeat at Crowley Park and trying to knock Wegians off their perch. Indeed the hosts got off to the perfect with a try after only 2 minutes. No. 8 Luke Satchwell ran from inside his own half and all too easily evaded the attentions of the Wegians defence, showing great stamina to make it over the line for the opening score……. for score & images follow >> http://www.galwegians.ie/match/2014/10/04/firsts-29-buccaneers-25/
