Shannon outplay Dungannon in all areas
Cork Con on 42 points are seven clear in the number one spot but two big games in Limerick on Saturday has seen a number of changes in the order of the chasing pack.
In Dooradoyle, Garryowen had a big win over UL-Bohs, a result which brings them within six points of a play-off spot and drops Bohs back one place to third. Of even greater significance, however, was this game in Thomond Park between Shannon and Dungannon.
