Provincial League Div 1 5th October 2019
Scorers: Shaw(3*Try), Smyth(2*Try), McErlain(1*Try), Doherty(1*Try), B.Hall(1*Try), Kearns(6*Conv)
In atrocious conditions, No8 Eunan Shaw scored a hat-trick as Rainey OB II ran rampant against a useful Ballyclare II to maintain their 100% record in Provincial 1. With all eight tries coming from the forwards, six from the back-row alone, the backs were left to play second fiddle on a occasion when 8-man rugby was the order of the day.
Rainey next travel to Orangefield on Saturday for a top of the table clash against perennial rivals Grosvenor II. Like Rainey, Grosvenor are unbeaten in the league, but dropped a bonus point opportunity away to Dungannon at the weekend.
