Coaches comments
 
"Hard and intense game with surprisingly good handling despite the weather, territory slight edge to Niagara, set piece slight edge to Irish, Thunder got two kick and chase tries early but both sides excellent defensively. Should set both teams up well for their respective league openers"
 
At Brantford, weather 12c with showers, ref A Hosie
 
Irish scoring: try Josh Green, convert Erik Cuzzilino
