Douglas B ease into Manx Plate semi-final

Saturday, 26 January 2013 18:26

Douglas B booked their spot in the Manx Plate semi final with a comfortable win over a depleted Ramsey B side.

They came out 35-5 winners at a slightly damp Port-e-Chee.

The high point for Douglas was a hat-trick from Jack Moore, a brace from Nathan Pierce and a solitary try from skipper Richard Melia from a modest 40 yards out.

Castletown lost 50-14 to Vagabonds B at Poulsom Park as the Shimmin Wilson Manx Shield competition nears its end.

The defeat for Town means they are confirmed with the wooden spoon this season, while Vagas, after a slow start, could yet finish runners up.

Mick Shipley and Dave Akkulugadu both picked up tries for Town with Gary Stephenson adding two conversions.
