JBM says Cork fitness levels increased

Cork manager Jimmy Barry-Murphy says his team have “worked very hard” on fitness since losing their relegation play-off with Clare.

Cork were overpowered in extra time by Clare that day but the Cork icon says his players have trained hard since then.

“After the relegation defeat we went back to training very, very hard. We had quite a lot of work to do after the relegation play-off game and we worked very hard for those five weeks.
