Cork Constitution boosted their All-Ireland League prospects with a 28-point drubbing of lowly Young Munster at Clifford Park.

Con's four try haul also helped the visitors pick up a precious bonus point.

Last year's beaten finalists by lead by 16-10 at half time thanks largely to a Cian Mahony try and three penalty goals from Conor Mahony.

Young Munster took an early lead with Clem Casey crossing for a fine try on 15 minutes.

However, Con completely dominated the second half adding three further tries from Gerry Murray and second row Donnacha O'Callaghan.

This defeat sees Munster's rooted to the bottom of the Division One table and in serious danger of dropping to the second division.
