Munster Schools impress on English tour

The Munster Schools prepared for the defence of their Inter-provincial crown with two victories in their mini-Tour of England over the weekend.

First, Munster came back from 6-0 down to forge a 19-13 win, courtesy of tries from full-back Evan Ryan, winger Jonathan Shortt and scrum-half Duncan Williams, against an imposing Bath Academy Under 19s.

On Sunday, Munster recovered from a poor, try-conceding start to run out convincing 25-13 winners against Gloucestershire Schools, who will visit the Leinster Schools next week.

Prop Liam Casey, wing Peter Shallow, back row David Daly and wing Frank Daly produced the tries.
