Dungannon swept aside by Con

Dungannon 3 Cork Constitution 49

Reigning Division One champions Cork Constitution showed they have no intention of giving up the trophy without a fight as they demolished Dungannon at Stevenson Park.

Brian Walsh's side ran riot in the second half as they took their try count to a sizzling six.

Nothing went right for 'Gannon as their game simply fell apart, although they were in contention at half-time - a John McGuckin penalty had them just in touch at 16-3 down.

Richie Lane kicked three penalties and converted a penalty try to give Con that buffer. Tom Gleeson, Evan Ryan, Cronan Healy and Daragh Lyons all touched down in the second period, as did place-kicker Lane who finished with 24 points.

Scorers:

Dungannon: Pen: John McGuckin

Cork Constitution: Tries: Penalty try, Tom Gleeson, Richie Lane, Evan Ryan, Cronan Healy, Daragh Lyons; Cons: Richie Lane 5; Pens: Richie Lane 3
