Rebels eye the danger ahead

Win easily, and the consensus will be that the opposition were at nothing, while a narrow victory will raise questions about the bigger side’s ability. Having had more than one close encounter with Limerick in recent times, however, Cork won’t have minded having an easier progression past the Shannonsiders’ challenge three weeks ago.
A flurry of three first-half goals meant the outcome was more or less decided, and ruthlessness like that is something Patrick Kelly wants to see more of.
