Report

The 2018 Irish Rugby League season was much shortened, as only two teams in the Republic of Ireland League & two in the Northern Ireland League completed the Regular Season.

Longhorns RL, from Ashbourne, Co. Meath defeated Galway Tribersmen 60-16 in the ROI Final and Belfast Stags won 30-28 against Portadown Pumas in the NI Final, before conceding a walkover in the All-Ireland Final,  handing the title to Longhorns RL.

Report

_________________________________________________________

Rugby League in Ireland dates back to the 1990s when a number of Rugby Union players formed the Dublin Blues as a way of keeping fit over the Rugby Union off-season. They entered the Challenge Cup in England, the Rugby League equivalent of Association Football’s FA Cup.

By the 2000s an Irish League was up and running on a provincial basis with an All-Ireland Playoff at the end of the season. In 2006 there were enough teams playing to create a separate All-Ireland Premiership for the top clubs.

In 2007 this Premiership was narrowly won by Treaty City Titans of Limerick, with a 2 point advantage over Carlow Crusaders. The next year they again won the Premiership, but fell short in the Grand Final, losing 24-6 to rivals Carlow Crusaders.The 2009 Premiership was again hotly contested by Treaty City and Carlow.

Following the 2009 season the Irish Rugby League again reverted to a single-tier provincial league system with the Provincial Champions contesting the All-Ireland Playoffs.
