Corca Dhuibhne hope for change of fortune

The setbacks kept on coming for Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne in last year’s Corn Uí Mhuirí final, their first ever appearance in the Munster Colleges decider.

As they gear up for another tilt at landing the title in next Sunday’s showdown against De La Salle (Macroom), manager John Flannery is naturally hoping their luck will turn.

“We had huge setbacks before and during the game. We lost our midfielder Shane Griffin before the game through injury, then Pádraig Ó Sé was sent off early in the game and then in the first half as well, Colm Galvin came off with a recurrence of a cruciate injury.
