On Friday the 1st of October, our last full day in Ireland, thanks to sponsorship from BearingPoint we were treated not only to a Pro 14 match, Leinster vs. Dragons played at ‘The RDS’ in Dublin, but also a meet-and-greet with Dan Leavy (Irish National Player) and Barry Daly (Irish 7’s National Player).
The rain we had been expecting all week finally arrived but could not dampen our spirits. The game was affected by the wet conditions, causing lots of handling errors, but the match was nonetheless thrilling, even if Leinster eventually ran away with the match handsomely winning by 50-15 (Match Report: Leinster Rugby 50 Dragons 15). And surely our boys and girls on tour took lots of inspiration from the on-field display.
