Player-coach Colin O’Reilly hoping injury-hit UCC Demons can cheer fans

UCC Demons’ player-coach Colin O’Reilly is urging his players to maintain their intensity levels for Sunday’s visit of Killester to the Mardyke Arena. O’Reilly’s charges has been plagued with injuries this season meaning a heavy playing schedule for the squad.

But O’Reilly isn’t playing the poor mouth: “It is what it is. We have been rotating six to seven players in every game played. If guys are forced to miss training in a build to a game there is every chance they will still play.”

O’Reilly is hoping the hosts can give their fans something to cheer about against Killester: “There has been a healthy rivalry between us as we were the best two clubs in the division for a number of campaigns and a game against Killester is always a huge test.”
