Greystones fightback frustrates Highfield
The game was moved from Model Farm Road after a pitch inspection but that didn’t appear to worry the Cork side, as they raced into a 13-0 lead inside the opening quarter.
But, after dominating territory, helped by a strong wind, Highfield conceded a converted try just before half time and that ultimately came back to haunt them. They had to endure long periods of Greystones pressure in the second half but battled to keep the visitors at bay. That defence eventually cracked and a try seven minutes into injury time, converted out wide, left them with just one losing bonus point. The defeat cost them second place in the table behind leaders City of Derry.
