Never to be forgotten occasion for young Tipperary players on historic night for Munster rugby

Munster V South Africa

Pairc Uí Chaoimh rocked on Thursday night last as Munster had a thrilling victory over South Africa. There was a major Cashel input on the night.

Denis Leamy is a key member of the coaching staff and was very pleased with the performance of his charges.

Cashel’s Diarmuid Barron was the hooker on the night and capped a wonderful performance with a very important try just before half time. He is establishing himself as a very important member of the Munster squad.

Pride of place goes to the Cashel under 11 team. They played Castleisland at half time before 41,000 people and turned in a very classy performance with a fine display of running rugby.

Ben Maher scored the only try of the game.
