Try scorers on the night were Aaron Delahunty (2), Tom Lillis and Liam Cooney. Adam Steed kicked two conversions. Man of the match was Liam Cooney, playing out of position at full back, who made four try saving tackles as well as carrying aggressively for huge yardage.

Bruff away on the 23rd of December await in the semi final.
