Young Munster are seeking win over Con after tonight’s AIL results
- Updated: 07/04/2017
YOUNG Munster were keenly watching tonight’s AIL 1A results and with Clontarf’s win over St Mary’s tonight pushing them level on points with leaders Lansdowne and third placed Cork Constitution visiting Tom Clifford Park tomorrow, the fight for home advantage in the semi-finals is certainly hotting up. At the other end of the table Dublin University failed to get points from their away game against UCD and remain on 35 points fourth from the bottom. Terenure and Garryowen are on 30 points with Old Belvedere at the bottom with 27 points.
A win for Garryowen in Dooradoyle and keeping Old Belvedere from getting a bonus point could push them into third from bottom if Terenure fail to get anything from their game. At the top of the table, a win for Young Munster could push them into third place going into the final series of games.
