Report

The Above Scoring Charts are incomplete. No result has been found for three games, and another three games where the results is known, no scorers are known. Other matches are incomplete, especially Conversions / Points After Touchdowns. No Kicking Scorers are Known.

From what is known, Brian Dennehy of the Dublin Tornadoes is the Top scorer, with 68 Points, coming from 11 Touchdowns, at least 6 of which were Rushing Touchdowns, and one two-point Conversion.

Top receiver was Complim, of Carrickfergus Knights with 2 Receiving Touchdowns, from the Top Passer, Graham, who passed for three touchdowns.

Greg Morrell of the Tornadoes tops the Miscellaneous Touchdown Category with two: a 45 yard Interception Return, and a 40 yard Fumble Return, both in a game against Dublin Lightning, which the Tornadoes won 20-0.

There were three safeties.

Brian Dennehy’s Rushing undoubtedly was the major factor in Dublin Tornadoes third Shamrock Bowl success, as they beat Carrickfergus Knights 34-12 in Shamrock Bowl X, although the Final itself was a total team effort, with Grandmaison and McGowan also scoring Touchdowns.

Note: While around at the time of the American Football Association of Ireland (1990-1999), the Greystones Rebels and Belfast Lasers were aligned more with the Dublin Lightning, whose personnel refused to play under the administration from 1997 onwards, and who ended up forming the Irish American Football Association (2001-2019).
