YOUNG Munster have moved up to sixth in the Energia All-Ireland League standings – four points outside the top four – after a runaway 57-10 success against bottom side Nenagh Ormond at Tom Clifford Park
Nenagh were only 8-5 behind at half-time. Both of their wingers, Conor O’Shaughnessy and Davey Gleeson, got on the scoresheet, but the Cookies, led by player-of-the-match Kelvin Langan, dominated the closing half.
They delighted the home support with tries from Kieran Ryan, Stephen McLoughlin, Oran O’Reilly, John Poland, Fionn Gibbons, Christian Foley, and Luke McCready, to add to Ajae Hanson’s opening score.
