League win would be icing on the cake for Cork Con

It has been quite the year to mark Cork Constitution’s 125th anniversary, what with Peter O’Mahony becoming the latest player from the Temple Hill club to be selected as a Lion and a record fifth successive Bateman Cup victory already in the bag.

Yesterday they were named Senior Club of the Year at the 2017 Munster Rugby Awards and another trophy could follow if all goes to plan and Con win their fifth All-Ireland League title in Sunday’s final with reigning champions Clontarf at the Aviva Stadium.

That would be the icing on the cake for Con’s senior team manager Kenny Murphy.
