Nenagh Ormond in desperate need of a win

RUGBY: Energia All Ireland League Division 2A Round 11 Preview

 

OLD CRESCENT v NENAGH ORMOND

Rosbrien

Saturday 25th January

Kick-off at 2.30pm

Referee: Barrie O'Connell

 

Nenagh Ormond return to Energia All Ireland League Division 2A action on Saturday when they make the short visit to Rosbrien in Limerick to face Old Crescent in a crucial round 11 game.

Off the back of a very poor showing at home to Queens University two weeks ago in their first game after the Christmas break, Nenagh need to get some results and quickly as they are starting to be cut adrift at the bottom of the table.

They are a point behind Dolphin in the table which is the relegation playoff spot and nine points behind safety and third from bottom UL Bohemian and Ballymena.

However, they face an Old Crescent side in fine form, having started the season slowly but risen up to third in the table in the race for the promotion playoff.
