Players who play irregularly should not be listed in the club's starrings, but can only play at a level "in accordance with the level at which they may have been starred and/or played in the recent past." As a result Leinster 8 were docked the 22 points they received in the match. The match was deleted from the record of Clontarf 7 and instead listed as a No Result.
