Garryowen slip up at home

Garryowen 10 Clontarf 18

Garryowen lost their grip on the only unbeaten record left in the top flight when a brace of tries from winger Derek Keane handed Clontarf a prized win at Dooradoyle.

Keane took his top-scoring tally for the season to nine tries in ten games as he touched down in either half. Garryowen mustered a try of their own, early in the second half, when their pack disrupted the Dubliners' scrum and Paul Neville took the ball on to score.

'Tarf, who led 6-3 at the interval, sealed the win on 73 minutes with Keane's second, converted by Darragh O'Shea.
