Power’s injury puts a dent in Munster Reds cup aspirations
Power, an experienced international, tore a hamstring when Cork beat Midleton in the Munster Senior League last weekend. He is unlikely to recover in time for the Munster Reds opening game of the season against Merrion at the Mardyke on Saturday week.
Power’s misfortune was an unwelcome blip in the progress of a Cork County team which has already created cup history. Their win over Ardmore of Derry marked the first time a Munster team had qualified for the second round of a competition that stretches back over 60 years.
