	Naas Rugby Club
		Naas had the upper hand throughout the match in the territory and possession stacks and it was only down to momentary lapses in concentration that gave Tullamore a sniff of pulling off an unlikely comeback.
		Naas by contrast dominated all of the possession and most of the territory through the second period, however, the half time score of 23-6 was to prevail to the final whistle and it was a victory that looked safe from some distance.
		Naas looked creaky in the scrum early on, but this was nullified by their mauling game from lineout play, which led to the first scoring opportunity of the game, however, Joey Moran’s penalty effort was wide and right after only three minutes.

		Naas had to score next if the contest was to stay alive and this they did when David Fagan picked off a penalty as Naas lay siege to the opposition goal line for the remainder of the half.
		Naas were on the backfoot and the penalty count of six to two in favour of Rainey during the second period confirmed so.
		Naas struggled to break their momentum, Mark Farragher tackled well when he came on in the backrow, but it wasn't long before they were defending deep inside their twenty two again, this time the home defence remained resolute and Rainey fought hard to get into a drop goal position.
