The visitors to Navan led by 0-8 to 1-3 at half time but 2-2 in the first seven minutes of the second half saw Meath take full control, and they ran out 12 point winners with Graham Reilly's goal the pick of the bunch
In Division Three Armagh's bid for promotion suffered a slight setback agsint Ulster rivals Fermanagh. The sides ended deadlocked at 1-10 each after a thrilling second half fightback from Fermanagh. They closed a five point gap in the last 15 minutes.
Armagh led by 1-7 to 1-3 at the break and had led by 1-5 to 0-1 at one stage in the first half until a Ruari Corrigan goal brought Fermanagh back into the game.
In the afternoon Tipperary held Clare at arms length in their Division 3 clash in Thurles with a 2-11 to 1-8 win
The Premier county enjoyed a half time lead of 1-5 to 0-4-as Conor Sweeney's early goal proved the key difference between the sides.
But the visitors were desperately poor in the second half, and Tipperary romped home to a comfortable six point win. That was even with the late penalty from David Tubridy being saved and its rebound tapped over for a point.
In hurling and Cork eased to a monster 0-34 to 1-20 win over Dublin in their Division one clash in Croke Park. The Rebels led by 0-21 to 0-8 at the break. Cork were allowed do what they please and the Dubs performance was in stark contrast to what they had shown in their win over Kilkenny almost two weeks ago.

The sides were level several times in the second half until Michael Walsh flicked home a goal after 50 minutes which gave the away side the room they needed to keep Offaly at bay until the final whistle and maintain their unbeaten record.
