Jack Crowley adds another clutch moment to growing repertoire 

Crowley has nailed some pretty big moments in his fledging career, dispatching Leinster with a late drop goal in a URC semi-final and helping Munster to a Grand Final victory

Jack Crowley may have the thought his match-deciding penalty against South Africa was “a fairly easy one” but with the stakes as high as they come in a pivotal World Cup pool match, the pressure was immense.

So credit the replacement fly-half for having the smarts and the nerve to let the shot clock run down into single figures and eat up valuable time as Ireland looked to see out a Pool B blockbuster they were leading 10-8 heading past the 77-minute mark.
