Eoin's back playing rugby, but this time he feels out of his depth. He's been promoted early to the Senior Cup team - where he's the youngest ever player - and he's not sure if he's ready for it. It's hard finding his feet among the older boys.
A discovery from the earliest days of Irish rugby brings more ghostly encounters for Eoin - and leads him and his friends to tackle a series of crimes at the national stadium.
Robberies, rucks and Senior Cup rugby make it a term to remember!
