Cork Con and St Mary's played out a thrilling 27-27 draw at Temple Hill in Division 1A. Con led 13-7 at half-time with Daniel Hurley and Jack Kelleher scoring their tries. They extended that lead to 20-10 after a Hurley break allowed Billy Crowley to touch down. St Mary's got their second try 12 minutes later to level the game at 20 points each but Jacob Sheahan got Con back in front when he dotted down off a maul. There were six minutes left when a Andy Keating try, again off a maul, brought Mary's level at 27 apiece. The result puts Mary's second in the top tier while Con are in fifth, 11 points behind the league leaders. 

Ballinahinch moved four points clear at the top thanks to a late 24-19 victory over UCD at Ballymacarn Park. UCD levelled the game at 19 points each in the 79th minute, going over in the corner after a driving maul but could not take the lead as the conversion dropped short.
