A crowd of nearly 11,000 made their way to the Twickenham Stoop for the inaugural Stuart Mangan Memorial Cup match, between the England and Ireland Legends.
Fans were treated to a highly competitive and entertaining game, in which the visitors, captained by Shane Byrne, were narrow victors, by 17 points to 15. Players from both sides turned back the clock to produce an entertaining match with World Cup winner, Jason Robsinson showing he still has blistering acceleration and dazzling footwork by scoring the opening try.
Irish fullback Justin Bishop was the star of the show with two tries and one conversion to his name as the Rubgly legends raised an estimated £150,000 for the Matt Hampson Trust, the IRFU Charitable Trust, and Keith Wood's Paralysed Rugby Players' Fund.
