Cork Constitution rubber-stamped their place in the All-Ireland League semi-finals with a hard-fought 13-5 win at Galwegians in the penultimate round of fixtures this afternoon.
The result keeps the Cork side clear of defending champions Garryowen and Munster rivals Shannon, who also both won today to ensure their places at the top table, at the head of the Division One standings.
Clontarf lost ground in their bid to book the final play-off berth, losing 17-16 at Blackrock, a result that will provide renewed hope to Dolphin, who's match against St Mary's was postponed, as they attempt to break into the top four.
