Pres JCT 5 - C.C Roscrea 19
16th February 2007
Pres Juniors went out of the Fr Godfrey Cup yesterday at a windswept Naas RFC. Playing with the strong wind at their backs in the first half Pres were very unfortunate to concede an intercept try against the run of play and this score was to prove vital in the outcome of the match.
Pres opened brightly and dominated most of the first half. No 8 David Cleary made some great breaks from the base of the scrum ably supported by wing forward Niall Finch. This set up a great platform for the backs who threatened on a number of occasions. However from a good back movement the Roscrea centre intercepted and ran half the length of the field to score under the posts. It was now vital for Pres to take advantage of the conditions but an unconverted David Cleary try was poor reward for Pres enterprise and endeavour.
