St Mary\u2019s went top of Division 1A of the Energia All-Ireland League ahead of a three-week break after they saw off Terenure 28-21 in the D6W derby at Templeville Road.<\/p>\n
Myles Carey\u2019s brace along tries from Jack Nelson Murray and Conor Pierce helped secure another statement win to see Mary\u2019s jump to top spot after Clontarf went down 24-27 to Cork Constitution at Castle Avenue.<\/p>\n
In a tense finish in a rematch of last season\u2019s final, tries from Killian Coghlan, Se\u00e1n Condon and Se\u00e1n French, allied to Dylan Hicks\u2019s accuracy from the tee, proved just enough to earn a measure of revenge for the visitors despite a late Clontarf rally sparked by tries from Dylan Donnellan, Jordan Coghlan and Conor Kelly.<\/p>\n
Ballynahinch continued their top four hopes with a clinical showing in Ballymacarn Park as they defeated Nenagh Ormond 47-0. Seven different players crossed the line, Kyle Gill, Matthew Booth, Aaron Sexton, Paul Kerr, Pierce Crowe, Ryan Connolly and Reuben Crothers helping Hinch to a big bonus-point win.<\/p>\n
Lansdowne and Old Belvedere served up one of the games of the round at the Aviva Stadium back pitch, with Lansdowne eventually prevailing 41-34 in a try-laden Dublin derby. Bobby Sheehan led the charge with a brace, while Jack Matthews, Barry Fitzpatrick, Cillian Redmond and Stephen Madigan also crossed.<\/p>\n
Belvedere responded with tries from Hugh O\u2019Sullivan, Fionn McWey and Chris O\u2019Connor, but were unable to rein in the hosts. <\/p>\n
Young Munster crossed for 12 tries at Tom Clifford Park, putting them fourth with a 82-21 win over UCD. Ruadh\u00e1n Quinn was unstoppable with four tries, while Jake O\u2019Riordan and Shay McCarthy also crossed twice, as Shane O\u2019Leary landed 11 out of 12 conversions.<\/p>\n
