Prendergast out of action for a month
With centre-forward Niall McCarthy struggling with a broken finger, the latest casualty is Mark Prendergast who, following x-rays, has been diagnosed with a fractured bone in his spine and has been ruled out of action for up to a month.
The Na Piarsaigh player, who came on at corner-back for Diarmuid O’Sullivan in the Munster SHC final against Waterford and did extremely well, picked up the injury in the recent shock SFC victory over Nemo Rangers, but was only diagnosed in the past few days, following x-rays.
