Curran: We’ll go all out, we always do

ON occasion, a questionnaire passes from player to player in the Cork senior hurling dressing-room, as happens in all counties. Lately, though, Ronan Curran has noticed a recurring pattern.

When the centre-back finds himself penning his age in the relevant box on those forms, on occasion his number — 30 — has had 19 or 20 as a neighbouring figure. Cork have been introducing youngsters during the league and the St Finbarr’s clubman says the policy is obvious within the group.

“You would notice it, when you walk into the dressing-room you see the ‘young’ corner, and it hits you – you’ve been around for a while and now you’re one of the older guys.
