Good news for Diarmuid and Cork and Cobh hurling
Diarmuid Kearney comes into the Cork side at midfield for Wednesday night's clash with Galway, replacing injured full-back Dáire O'Leary.
A game initially due to take place last Saturday week was put back due to a Covid case in the Cork camp that led to the rest of the group being classed as close contacts. Then, having been set for Tuesday night , a further delay of 24 hours was necessary. Even so, it’s still only 39 days since Cork won the 2020 title, beating Dublin in Nowlan Park.
Having waited 22 and a bit years, Cork are now hoping to emulate the back-to-back wins of 1997 and 1998. Full-back O’Leary is a loss due to a hamstring injury, necessitating a reshuffle as Ciarán Joyce drops from number 6 to 3. Ethan Twomey, wing-back up to now, is at centre-back while Brian O'Sullivan moves from midfield to left half-back, allowing Kearney to come into the side. Piaras O'Halloran is added to the substitutes.
