Derry 2-09 Limerick 3-21

Limerick put the Eamonn Cragan episode behind them this afternoon with a thumping NHL win over Derry at Lavey.

Limerick amassed a total of 3-21, seeing off their Division 1B rivals by a goal and 12 points, to keep the pressure on Cork at the top of the table.

Derry, who have endured a miserable league campaign, finish bottom of the table with a damning points difference and nothing to show for their efforts.

Cork meet Tipperary at Pairc Ui Caoimh later today.
