Cork's strength in depth surfaces in Limerick lesson

Cork 1-21 Limerick 1-10

Forced under rule to field a complete new team, the Leesiders showed their depth of talent as they completely out-hurled the home side with an exhibition of point scoring by Darren Dineen, Paul McGrath, Rory O'Doherty and wing back Dessie Fitzgerald.

Limerick fielded an experienced side that included former seniors Pat Heffernan and Paul Neenan, but apart from a brief period in opening quarter were never in the game.
