Ulster Bank League: Division 2B Previews - Armagh vs Skerries

ULSTER BANK LEAGUE: DIVISION 2B: Saturday, March 4

Kick-off 2.30pm 


Armagh (1st) v Skerries (7th), Palace Grounds

Following successive wins on the road, Armagh are back at the Palace Grounds and back at the top of the table thanks to their 30-19 bonus point dismissal of Old Crescent.

Back rowers Neil Faloon and Ali Birch were two of their four try scorers as Alex McCloy's men recovered from a 19-point deficit. Captain Birch also touched down when Armagh won 32-16 at Skerries in October.

The Dubliners, who were 36-17 winners over Thomond a fortnight ago, are facing into two away trips to top four sides. Flanker Michael Turvey, one of Skerries' key players, bagged a brace of tries against Thomond.
