Doolan major doubt for Brendan’s ahead of Macroom clash
Doolan injured a thumb in a club game last week and is unlikely to start. However, his county colleague Brian Russell, who played at corner-back in the All-Ireland minor defeat by Roscommon, will play alongside Rory Mangan and Kevin Breen.
With no form to go on, it’s a difficult game to call, but while the Sem are reported to be very much on the young side this season, they never put out a bad team. The Macroom side will have to be at their best to get off to a winning start. DLS have lost most of their big names from last year, but will include several members of the local club’s minor team which are one of the fancied sides in this year’s county premier championship.
