CBC hoping superior power can see off Crescent at Thomond Park

Pre-tournament favourites CBC have battled their way to the Seat Munster Schools’ Junior Cup final where they face Crescent College Comprehensive at Thomond Park today (2pm).

The finalists had relatively comfortable wins in the opening rounds but had to go up a few notches in the semi-finals, Crescent coming through by just three points and Christians beating local rivals Presentation with a late try.

Christians’ coach Tommy Crowe is well aware Crescent may have his physically imposing pack sussed out by now, and that the advantage may not be as pronounced as it was in the early stages of the tournament.
