Pres shade thriller as CBC rue missed chances
A last-ditch, twice-taken conversion from Steven Dinan salvaged a draw for Pres the first time these local rivals met, but this time Christians saved face when number eight Rob O’Dowling burrowed over in second-half injury time. However, scrum-half Eoin Geary’s well-struck conversion flew just the wide of the upright, giving Pres a win by the skin of their teeth.
The Christians defence stood firm until the 27th minute, when the game’s opening try arrived in bizarre circumstances.
