Ross Jones, who was Knock SCT Captain in 2010 is one the move.

But first some background for Ross after a stint with Leinster Academy returned to his native Wales when the Osprey's came calling. Welsh underage caps followed which led to one unique u20 RBS 6 Nations match in 2012 where Ross playing for Wales faced off against Peter Reilly, also Knock 2010 SCT, who was playing for Ireland!

Thankfully Geraldine Corrigan took the above remarkable photo of the occasion, and both are thankful she did for Peter writes:

I was speaking to Ross today and we could not believe that between the both of us we don't have a photo from the match. It was a strange experience to line up against your school captain and friend.
At least Ireland came out with the right result.
Luckily, we did not meet the Welsh in the world cup but both teams were in the same hotel so we saw plenty of each other. I enjoyed eating his lunch as much as my own so not too much had changed since our six years in Castleknock.
Our two brothers, Kahn and Emmet also played with each other on the Knock 2015-16 JCT which I was lucky enough to help coach.

In any case, back to today, best wishes to Ross, for after several successful years at Ospreys, he has now signed for Rotherham Titans. Perhaps it's a clever ruse to put further distance between his lunch and Peter?
