WOW! JUST WOW.
Bandon Grammar School appeared in their first Bowen Shield final in Cork last week and they ran in a try that will live long in the memory.
Starting from a ruck in their own 22, Bandon sweep left, cutting in at excellent running lines while displaying terrific skill to pass out of contact and offload their way past 11 men, two of them beaten by Ben Gur’s finish in the corner.
Blow the whistle, give them the cup.
Unfortunately for Bandon, their superb score turned out to be a consolation. The second half try cut CBC’s lead to 10 – 8, but he boot of Robert Hedderman pushed CBC clear again soon after and Eoghan Barrett’s try helped CBC to a 23 – 8 lead before Bandon forced their way over the line late on to make it 23 – 13 at full-time.
Still though, keep attempting to play rugby like that and they’ll go far.
