This was a great opportunity to create and develop a new squad of players, and Coach Derek McMullan seized the opportunity with both hands.<br \/>\nThis was a very evenly contested match, despite the score. In the first half both teams equally shared possession. It was Lurgan who scored the first try after sixteen minutes and they easily slotted over the conversion.<br \/>\n7 &#8211; 0<br \/>\nFollowing this Dungannon responded well, with Phil \u201cthe drill\u201d Martin, setting Brian Simpson up for an under the post try. Robin McCleary missed the conversion.
