THOMOND, already confirmed as champions, concluded their Munster Junior League campaign with a 59-5 home win against Skibbereen and thus became the first side to win all 13 games with bonus point victories.
Werner Kruger, Ryain Ahern, and Jason Kiely each scored two tries and Luke Costelloe, Cillian Moughty, and Evan Maher got one each.
Star performer Kiely also kicked seven conversions.
Meanwhile, St Mary’s, who were in sixth place, recorded a 33-32 away win at Virgin Media Park against Sunday’s Well to move into fourth place and a place in next year’s All Ireland Junior Cup.
Ruairi O’Donnell, Nicky Hogan, James O’Brien, and Stephen Hayes were try scorers for the Saints who were also awarded a penalty try.
Adam Guerin kicked three conversions.
And, a try deep in injury time by Dan Normoyle gave Newcastle West a 19-13 home win over Muskerry.
This result maintained Newcastle West’s status as a top-flight side for next season and meant that Muskerry missed out on a top four finish. Shane Airey and Sean Murphy were Newcastle West’s other try scorers and Airey kicked two conversions.
Also, a try in the last minute by Shane Halpin helped Richmond to a 25-25 home draw against Clonakilty, a result that makes the West Cork side favourites to be relegated. Jack Cross and Graham Kirwin were Richmond’s other try scorers and Cross kicked two conversions and two penalties.
