O’Donovan back in the frame for Crokes

DR CROKES midfielder Ambrose O’Donovan is fit for Sunday’s Munster Club SFC semi-final against Kilmurry-Ibrickane after missing their quarter-final win over Ballinacourty with a back injury.

O’Donovan has struggled with the complaint throughout the season and was forced off during the Kerry SFC semi-final against West Kerry. But he returned to training with the club last week and crucially emerged unscathed from their Kerry County League Division 1 clash against Gneeveguilla on Sunday.

Dr Crokes manager Harry O’Neill confirmed: “Ambrose trained with us last week and he seemed to be okay. He got more treatment as the week went on and when we played Gneeveguilla at the weekend, we put him on for half an hour and thankfully he came through that okay. He’s in the frame for us now for Sunday.”
