A patched up \u2018Skins team, bereft of a number of regulars, battled hard but were unable to overcome a resolute Ballyclare side in a rich vein of form in awful playing conditions.<\/p>\n

The rain was incessant throughout and the hosts\u2019 decision to play the match on a mudbath of a pitch led to a match littered with errors.<\/p>\n

\u2018Skins were unable to capitalise on an early foray into the hosts\u2019 half with some good strong running but were awarded a penalty, however outhalf James McIntyre missed the opportunity as his footing seemed to go just as he was striking the ball. <\/p>\n

\nThe second try came ten minutes later and was created with sheer pace from the outside backs and finished by the right wing. This was also converted and Ballyclare held a 14 \u2013 0 lead at halftime.<\/p>\n

The game improved little in the second half and the elements continued to play havoc with the player\u2019s skills and Ballyclare eventually sealed the victory midway through with their third try.<\/p>\n

\u2018Skins continued to try and play the rugby that has brought them praise in recent matches, but the conditions didn\u2019t help and at times the wrong decisions were taken. <\/p>\n

There was nothing to ashamed of in the performance and many could leave the pitch with their heads held high, notably Daniel Allister who stepped into scrum half and acquitted himself well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
