Time for Rebels to step up, says Moylan

Cork forward Stephen Moylan says he and his teammates intend to “step up to the plate” following a devastating run of illness and injury.

Patrick Cronin, Lorcan McLoughlin and Paudie O’Sullivan are all non-starters for Cork’s championship opener against Clare on Sunday but Moylan says Cork are upbeat.

“When we got the injuries, Jimmy got us in and told us it was up to the panel to step up to the plate. Fellas have taken it on themselves to step it up and drive on in training. Hopefully we can bring that to the game.
