Else where it was a good day for Munster clubs with Midleton the only other club to lose, going down 48-17 away to Malone.

Cobh Pirates also staged a second half revival coming from 17-5 down at half time to beat Richmond 21-17. Crosshaven had a 13-0 away win over Kilfeacle, but Clanwilliam?s poor start continues as they lost 49-5 away to Skibbereen.
