Blow for Rebels as Cronin faces lay-off

PATRICK CRONIN is set to miss Cork’s entire National Hurling League campaign after suffering a serious knee injury. Cronin will be out of action for a minimum period of three months but it is hoped he may be able to make a return before Cork’s Munster SHC opener against Tipperary in Páirc Ui Chaoimh on May 31.

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.
