GUINNESS PRO 14: Dublin (IRL) – RDS Arena – Leinster-Glasgow 55-19
“Rampaging Academy lock Ryan Baird helped himself to a memorable hat-trick in Leinster Rugby’s 55-19 Guinness PRO14 bonus point win over Glasgow Warriors at the RDS Arena. It took just three-and-a-half minutes for 20-year-old Guinness Player of the Match Baird to crash over, the hosts’ thunderous attack producing further scores for Dave Kearney, James Lowe and captain Scott Fardy to create a 24-7 half-time lead. Kyle Steyn deftly doubled Glasgow’s try tally, adding to Tommy Seymour’s slick 25th-minute effort, but Lowe completed his brace before Baird brilliantly accelerated away in the 55th minute and then went over again past the hour mark.” (Source: leinsterrugby.ie)
