Donnellan Reaches 10-Try Mark Already In #EnergiaAIL Division 1A

Donnellan crossed twice during last week’s 31-27 win over Lansdowne on the Aviva Stadium’s back pitch. The Leinster-capped hooker’s first-half brace kept him at the top of the try-scoring charts, three clear of Ballynahinch’s own maul maestro, Claytan Milligan.

There was some movement behind the frontrunning pair as Cork Constitution centre Billy Crowley climbed onto four tries after touching down twice during their home victory over UCD.

Crowley’s team-mates, James Taylor and Jack Kelleher, and Young Munster’s Stephen McLoughlin are also now on four each. Con’s classy out-half Taylor has been in very good scoring form of late, picking up 11 points against Clontarf and 13 points against UCD respectively.

Taylor has 88 points for the campaign to date, leaving him just behind UCD’s Michael Moloney, the division’s leading scorer with 90 points. The goal-kicking scrum half is closing in on the century mark having come away from Temple Hill with a 10-point haul.

Behind the leading pair are Ballynahinch’s Conor Rankin (73 points) and Clontarf out-half Conor Kelly (62). Shane O’Leary, Munsters’ late match winner at ‘Hinch, has boosted his tally to 49 points.
