Shannon 37 15 Lansdowne

A hat-trick of tries from Quinnlan inspired Shannon to a resounding victory over Lansdowne.

Shannon ran in six tries in total in an impressive display.

Inspired by international prop Hayes, Shannon led 15-08 at half-time.

But it was in the second-half that Shannon gained control of the game.

The home-side introduced Munster and Ireland back-row forward Quinnlan as a second-half substitute.

The six tries insure that four-time champions, Shannon, are strong contenders for a play-off spot.
