Full-time here and Tigers hold out for a deserved 5 point win. Scoring 3 tries to none it's hard to argue with their win today. Irish could have stolen it at the end with their near miss but in the end it's the Tigers who take the spoils. Thanks for stopping by for our coverage, we look forward to bringing you more top flight rugby.

Knock-on is called and it's no try! Tigers now have a scrum on their own five metre line. Can they hold out for the final few minutes.

Irish almost in for a try with only minutes left. They drive over the line and now it's in the hands of the TMO to see whether it's a try or not.

PENALTY IRISH. Ian Humphreys takes over the kicking duties and duly obliges with 3 points from the tee to leave just 5 between the sides. 20-15.
