J1 Rugby Update:
For the J1 this weekend an early penalty for Cobh kicked by Greg Higgins gave them the lead but then Water Park dominated with a good lineout and maul and Pirates had a player sin binned. During the sin bin Water park scored and converted a try and kept up their dominance and extended their lead with a penalty. Half time score 10-3. In the second half, pirates came more into the game. A penalty from Mark Chandler put Cobh within 4 points. More pressure from Pirates led to a line break from Eamon Ronan and he continued over for the winning try, converted by Mark Chandler. Final Score 13-10.
