Attacking strengths should see Cork through

FOR the third year in a row, Cork and Kerry clash at the opening stage of the U21 grade and each of the previous meetings has produced the All-Ireland champions.

Considering that trend both will be of the opinion that if they surmount this hurdle, they can make a serious stab at national honours.

For Kerry the primary objective will be simply turning up to perform, something they failed miserably to do in last year’s corresponding fixture where they suffered a thumping defeat.
