Auguy Slowik's stoppage-time try saw Jersey Reds become the first side to beat London Irish in the Championship this season as they came from behind to win 17-14 at St Peter.

Topsy Ojo's converted try for Irish produced the only first-half points.

Slowik pulled a score back soon after the half-time break, but Blair Cowan went over to put Irish 14-5 up.

Leroy Van Dam crossed to reduced the deficit four minutes later before the late winner.
