Cork and Meath all set for All-Ireland junior dogfight

CORK and Meath renew their intense football rivalry when their junior teams meet in the All-Ireland final in Portlaoise today (1pm).

While this particular grade may well be down the pecking order for most counties, both Cork and Meath use it as a launch pad for senior talent.

Meath coach Dessie Hamilton said that of the team which won the title three years ago, five are on Sean Boylan’s squad.
