In-form O’Driscoll returns to haunt Garryowen

NIALL O’DRISCOLL returned to haunt his former club as Dolphin continued their blistering start to the season by recording an 18-13 victory over Garryowen at Dooradoyle on Saturday.

In the tie of the ODM Munster Senior Cup first round, winger O’Driscoll – who moved from the light blues to Dolphin during the summer – touched down twice to help his side to a 12-3 half-time lead.

Willie Staunton converted his own try after the break to ensure Dolphin lived on their nerves, but Barry Keeshan’s earlier successes with the boot had kept the visitors out of reach.
