We need to use Cussen more, says Corrigan

COLMAN CORRIGAN won’t risk looking too far ahead, but he believes Cork footballers are good enough to win the All-Ireland final.

However he accepts it’s conditional on them tidying up their game. In the context of tomorrow’s All-Ireland SFC quarter-final against Sligo in Croke Park (2pm), this relates specifically to getting quality ball at pace into their inside forwards.

Twenty years ago Corrigan missed out on an All-Ireland medal himself. An early injury forced him off at half-time in the final against Meath and seriously undermined the stability of the defence. A year later he was out of luck against the same opposition, this time in a replay.
