Wicklow 10 Wexford Wanderers 38.
Wexford travelled with a depleated side for the first game of the season, quite a few lads are involved in GAA finals and are preparing for same. Fifteen players travelled and boy did fifteen play; someone suggested conceeding because our margin for error was so tight-- the firing squad are on standby if there is any similar behaviour.
Wexford shot out of the blocks, they kicked off; the ball was caught and moved right to centre Brionn Coffee who broke 3 tackles to score under the posts ,full back Luke Lacey converted. More pressure and Brionn scored again. 5 mins later great pressure resulted in prop Greg McGrath scoring a great forwards try. Luke made it 0 - 19 after 10 mins.
Wcklow got their running game going and battled hard and scored a deserved try just before half time, leaving the score 5 19 at the break.
Wexford had to conserve energy as no subs were available, so ruck and maul was the order of the day. Daire MacCormack made a great intercept in midfield and quick ball to Brionn Coffee made it 5 - 24. Almost immediately Brionn scored again and Luke converted.
Wicklow responded and scored in the corner. The final try was scored by Kevin Bierney after a fine passing move involving David Kavanagh,Josh Healy and Brionn Coffee Final score Wicklow 10 Wexford Wanderers 38
