It was Groundhog Day for Nenagh Ormond as they fell to an eerily familiar defeat yet again, this time at the hands of bottom of the table Dolphin last Saturday afternoon.
In a game strewn with penalties and yellow cards, it was the same score-line and same story for Nenagh in the space of a week, as a late Alan O’Sullivan try claimed victory for the visiting Cork men against the run of play.
Nenagh controlled most of the game in terms of scores and territory up to the 65th minute, but defensive frailties are continuing to be Ormond’s undoing as they somehow capitulated to let a 15-7 lead slip after the accuracy of Conor O’Brien’s boot had put his team in a winning position going down the home stretch.
