Deane to address medics on testicular cancer

LEGENDARY Cork hurler Joe Deane will mark next Sunday’s All-Ireland final day with a daunting appearance in front of a radically different Dublin crowd.

Deane to address medics on testicular cancer

The acclaimed forward – who terrorised defences in four successive All-Ireland finals between 2003 and 2006 – is set to address an audience for the first time on his experience of being diagnosed and treated for testicular cancer.

And as former foes from Kilkenny and Tipperary are taking to the pitch at Croke Park to battle for the title of national champions, 31-year-old Deane will stand up in front of more than a 100 doctors from all over the country, as requested by his cancer specialist, Dr Seamus O’Reilly.
