Garryowen and Young Munster feature in Munster moment of the month

Moment 1 – Calvin Nash tackle
While Young Munster fell to a 6-3 loss to Garryowen in the All Ireland League under the lights at Dooradoyle on Friday, November 10, Calvin Nash of the Greencore Munster Rugby Academy made his mark with a perfectly-timed tackle.
Nash’s tackle was one of the standout moments in the clash at a rain-sodden Dooradoyle as Garryowen took the spoils thanks to two Neil Cronin penalties.

Moment 2 – Simon Zebo pass
Simon Zebo produced one of the assists of the season in Munster’s bonus-point Guinness PRO14 win away to Zebre on Sunday, November 26.
Munster were leading 22-14 as the game approached the hour mark when Zebo floated an inch-perfect pass into the path of Alex Wootton with the winger running in his second try to secure the bonus point.

Moment 3 – Liam Coombes hat-trick
Liam Coombes scored a hat-trick as Garryowen climbed into second place in Division 1A of the All Ireland League thanks to a 37-28 bonus point win away to Dublin University on Saturday, November 25.
6ft 3in Coombes opened his account via a clever Neil Cronin-inspired attack on the half hour, and he then pounced for another try on the stroke of half-time, thanks to excellent hands from David Johnston.
Coombes nabbed his third try and the bonus point in the 52nd minute, crossing to the left of the posts after a strong midfield carry from number 8 Sean Rennison.
