PBC, Cork 8 St Munchin’s College 8

With the new rules having kicked in, St Munchin’s, by virtue of scoring the first try of the game, earn a home quarter-final while Pres must wait and see what awaits them.

After an absorbing opening spell, the first score came from a penalty. Pres scrum-half John Poland knocked over an 18th-minute opportunity, and struck an upright with another attempt a couple of minutes later.
