Mullane: ‘one man band’ tag motivated us

DE LA Salle star John Mullane revealed they were “aggrieved” that a Cork radio station had described his club side as a one-man team and used that to inspire them to their one-point Munster club championship win over Sarsfields last Sunday.

“The lads were a bit annoyed that a comment was made on one of the Cork radio stations during the week,” said Mullane. “A couple of lads were aggrieved by it and that’s what they brought to the table last Sunday.”

Mullane’s freetaking was erratic and he admitted he’s not a natural with the placed ball.
