Blow for Rebels as Cronin faces lay-off
The Bishopstown attacker previously had cartilage surgery on his knee and it is a recurrence of that injury that means he will not line out for Cork this spring. Cronin burst onto the scene in 2007 making his senior championship debut for Cork against Clare and has since established himself as a regular fixture in the Cork half-forward line.
Meanwhile, Cork hurling boss Denis Walsh has named an experimental side for their first outing of the year in Sunday’s Waterford Crystal Cup, preliminary round tie against UCC in Páirc Ui Rinn.
