There were wins for Glasgow, Edinburgh, Ospreys and Zebre on Friday in Round 15 of the Guinness PRO14.
With four fixtures taking place on Friday, here's a round-up of all that went on...
Glasgow Warriors maintained their unbeaten home record in the Guinness PRO14 with a 37-23 win over Toyota Cheetahs.
Niko Matawalu, Ruaridh Jackson, Siosiua Halanukonuka, George Horne and Henry Pyrgos all crossed the line for the Warriors, who stay top of Group A.
The game kicked off in lashing rain and as both sides struggled to hold the ball it was Cheetahs who made the most of it with a goal-line to goal-line try in the seventh minute, scored by winger Malcom Jaer and converted by Niel Marais.
That was as good as it got for the visitors, while Glasgow's bonus-point success guarantees them a top-three finish in Conference A, and thus a knockout place.
Duncan Weir's last-gasp drop goal secured four vital points for Edinburgh in the Guinness PRO14 as they won 17-16 at Ulster.
The win sees them gain an edge on the Irish province in the race for the top-three play-offs, though both sides are on 46 points in the table after Ulster, who slipped to fourth, gained a losing bonus point.
Tries from winger Jason Harries and lock Lewis Carmichael, along with two conversions from Sam Hidalgo-Clyne and Weir's drop goal, earned the Scots the four points.
All Ulster's points came from John Cooney, via a try, a conversion and three penalties.
After the sides were tied 7-7 at half-time, the Irish province stretched their lead to 13-7 before the visitors, who dominated the second half, came back to take the game with the last play.
Ospreys made heavy weather of beating Southern Kings in the PRO14 at the Liberty Stadium.
Eventually the bonus-point win came as three tries in the final 14 minutes secured a 26-12 success. Scores for the home side came from scrum-half Tom Habberfield, two penalty tries and wing Jeff Hassler.
The Kings' tries were courtesy of Michael Makase and captain Michael Willemse, with Martin Du Toit kicking a conversion, but the visitors are still yet to pick up a PRO14 victory.
Ospreys were helped by the visitors being reduced to 13 men at one point in the second half with Johan Smith and Eital Bredenkamp in the sin-bin.
Zebre won for the first time on Irish soil as Michael Bradley masterminded a 19-11 PRO14 victory over his former side Connacht at the Sportsground.
The Italians had lost on all 24 previous visits to Irish provinces in all competitions - including eight in Galway - but they deservedly won this Conference A clash with the error-prone hosts.
Connacht trailed 7-6 at half-time, Craig Ronaldson's second penalty closing the gap after Zebre No 8 Renato Giammarioli had gobbled up an 18th-minute try.
Having been denied an earlier score due to a forward pass, Gabriele di Giulio touched down in the 46th minute and, with Connacht putting in their worst performance for some time, Andrea di Marchi's 64th-minute try from a charge-down sealed the province's fate.
