Pres produce goods to earn crack at CBC
While flattered by their winning margin - they snatched a seven-pointer in the last minute - Pres were dominant for most of the game and are sure to present a mighty challenge to their great city rivals CBC in the final on St Patrick’s Day.
However, Pres will realise the amount of improvement needed to bridge that nine-year gap. They certainly have the forward strength to cope and have a matchwinner in scrum-half and captain Sam Cronin. Nevertheless, the number of handling errors they made on an absolutely perfect afternoon was rather alarming and in a closer game they couldn’t afford to miss the same number of goal kicks.
