London Irish lead Bristol Bears at Ashton Gate. Probably not many would've called that. It very tight away saw the teams deadlocked for most of the half before Sheedy opened the scoring. Meehan they shocked Ashton Gate by putting London Irish in the lead However a moment of madness from Hoskins has Irish down to 14 men for the 2nd half. Can they hold on, or will Bristol take full advantage?
