Cork hammered their old rivals 3-17 to 2-9 at Páirc Ui Rinn. Tony Leen was there.

Cork collected the McGrath Cup yesterday with a four-point win over Kerry in Mallow, a determined second-half display and a good John Hayes goal the key to their first silverware of 2014.

THE Kerry management are confident of having their goal-keeping position resolved before the end of the Allianz NFL, with coach Jack O’Connor indicating after yesterday’s game in Fitzgerald Stadium that they are unlikely to “spread the net” beyond the three players who have filled the position so far in the McGrath Cup following Diarmuid Murphy’s retirement.

THIS compelling scorefest has put everything on hold – including Jack O’Connor’s thoughts on a return to the Kerry hot seat.
