A dramatic final round of group action in the Cork Premier SFC, at the end of which not all quarter-finalists were known as Douglas and St Michael's could not be separated in the race for second place in Group C and so will meet in a playoff.

St Michaels' first win of the campaign - a one-point victory over Mallow - and Douglas' seven-point defeat to St Finbarr's left Michael's, Douglas, and Mallow tied on two points.
