Conversion missed. 5-3 to Michael's

Rala_

Michaels very good off broken play

irishfan9

michaels taking control.

C3PO

Michaels try again!

irishbucsfan

Poor fringe defense from CWC

Rala_

Clongowes defence unconvincing

irishfan9

12-3

Inspector Coptoor

12-3 Michael’s.

Dubious grounding for the try but it was coming nonetheless.

Michael’s are showing they can either beat you with silky passes or by Blugeoning you.

Looking ominous

C3PO

Clongowes penalty -should be kickable!

Inspector Coptoor

12-6

C3PO

12-6 Michaels

irishfan9

12-6

Rala_

Matthew Martin struggling to get over the gain line, Michaels obvipusly did their homework

irishfan9

Moran has been very good.

omb0wyn5ehpij9

Fantastic defense from Clongowes from that lineout

C3PO

Two good teams!

Bridge93

Had to pass that ball

Bridge93

Clongowes getting caught narrow an awful lot

irishfan9

Good 1st half.

C3PO

Two best times I’ve seen so far - very good game!

Ayewserious

Conrad daly looks a good player

Bridge93

Stupid stupid mistake costs them dearly

irishfan9

well then... another try michaels..

MDunne14

Very poor error from John Maher he was a good 5-6 metres ahead of O’Shea , has been pretty much a spectator so far in the game expected more from him

irishfan9

19-6 michaels.

Inspector Coptoor

90 seconds in to second half and Michael’s score a converted rrr after Clongowes were ahead of the kicker on the restart:

Could be a long 35 mins for Clongowes now.

19-6

Bridge93

More shocking defence. So so easy for Michaels

irishfan9

some pace by healy..

michaels should have went wide.

MDunne14

Michaels specialising in the production of second and back rows these days

Rala_

This could become carnage pretty quickly, hopefully not tho.

6elieve

surely advantage shouldve been over there

Inspector Coptoor

That’s the longest advantage I’ve ever seen given.

Surely play gone on long enough and enough meters made for advantage to be over?

Clongowes tackling is becoming more and more ineffective.

Michael’s look ready to cut loose at any moment.

Inspector Coptoor

22-6 and a three score game

irishfan9

22-6.

omb0wyn5ehpij9

22-6 now. Can't see Clongowes coming back from this. Michael's getting across the gain line with ease

Bridge93

Michaels look a superb side. look their strongest side since 2013 after the 2015 team turned out to be a two man side. Definite team to beat

Outside of them the cup looks weaker this year than in the recent past

Rala_

St Michaels 9 having a poor game, clongowes 9 complete opposite

Inspector Coptoor

Ref made a horrible call there.

Beautiful try from Clongowes chalked off

5m lineout CWC

5m lineout CWC

I thought he was offside from first viewing, but no replay on Eir to check.

Clongowes should have taken the guaranteed 3 points from in front of the posts

Inspector Coptoor

Ref missing so many infringements ftom Michael’s - from offside to high tackles, Michael’s could/should have a man in the bin at this stage.

Michael’s under real pressure last 7-8 mins but holding firm so far

Inspector Coptoor

Try Clongowes by their big number 8, Martin.

Conversion - scored

22-13
15 mins to go

omb0wyn5ehpij9

Try and conversion Clongowes. They made it hard on themselves, it should have been scored a couple of phases earlier.

22-13

omb0wyn5ehpij9

13 minutes left. If Clongowes score in the next few minutes to make it a one score game, we will see what Michael's nerve is like

Rala_

Clongowes pack smarter and superior at breakdown but that Clongowes backline is not convincing at all.

MDunne14

Surely a few deliberate knock ons in the tackles?

I thought the last knock on from the Michael's winger was definitely a penalty

omb0wyn5ehpij9

Full time 22-13

Michael's look the strongest of the 4 teams left

Michael's look strong across the park.

MDunne14

Clongowes mistakes bite them in the arse in the end , in particular ahead of kicker that lead to the michaels 7 pointer at start of second half

Sudolife

St Michaels vs Belvedere
St Marys vs Blackrock
