Emerging Ireland’s Georgian romp ended yesterday afternoon with a 42 – 33 win against Uruguay in the final match in the Tbilisi Cup. The win sees Emerging Ireland finish in second place behind the South African Presidents XV.

Ireland’s scored six tries through Ian Keatley (2), Tiernan O’Halloran, Niall Morris (2) and  Niall Annett with Keatley converting all six as Ireland romped to a 42 – 14 lead though an enjoyable fightback from Uruguay kept us entertained to the final minutes.
