2月5日,在下著大雨的愛爾蘭首都都柏林,Old Belvedere英式橄欖球隊在Anglesea路上的主場迎戰Blackrock College隊。在這場全國橄欖球聯盟1A分組賽中,Blackrock College隊的傳鋒Conor Crowley在球場上出現「拉克」後把球放開。(「拉克」是指一種當橄欖球在地上時,兩隊球員身體互相接觸圍繞在球四周所形成的狀態。)這兩支英式橄欖球隊都位在都柏林,各以該市的兩間學校為名,創隊時原本規定球員必須具有該校校友身分, 但現在已取消此條件。Old Belvedere隊最後以10-9勝出,並在晉級後贏得聯盟冠軍。

Both rugby union clubs are based in Dublin, Ireland. They were originally formed as teams of former pupils of two of the city’s schools, but are now open. Old Belvedere won the match 10-9, and went on to become league champions.
