THE Ulster Bank League enters the third round of the season, with some Limerick clubs still looking to get off the mark.
Division 1A sees Garryowen, who drew 16-16 with their near neighbours Young Munster last weekend, entertain Cork Con at Dooradoyle on Saturday. The Light Blues are third in the table following a win and a draw from the opening two rounds.
Young Munster make the trip to UCD on Saturday. The students beat Ballynahinch 47-13 last weekend so an injury hit Young Munster squad will enter the game as underdogs.
