Wicklow RFC and Clondalkin RFC played out an old school rugby match in the semi final of the Provincial Towns Cup in Carlow today. The two teams played in what can only be described as a mud-bath, and fortunately for everyone - Paul Mohan of Sportsfile was there to capture some excellent images from the day.
It was damn near impossible to distinguish who had the ball, or what team they were on, unless they were replacements - like no. 22 below:
