Deasy delivers final spot for Pres
Pres now meet Castletroy in Wednesday’s final at a Limerick venue. The sides clashed earlier in the qualifying section of the competition when Castletroy edged it 5-3 before making the decider for the first time.
Having struggled in the early stages, Pres played their best rugby yesterday in the second half of a keenly contested affair. Inspired by an outstanding contribution from loose head prop and captain Niall Scannell and with Jack Duffy and Brian Carroll also impressing, they were the stronger side up front but still found it difficult to impose their will on the game.
