Cork trio to miss league opener against Limerick

Cork manager Jimmy Barry-Murphy expects to be without captain Pa Cronin, Conor O’Sullivan and Séamus Harnedy for the Allianz Hurling League Division 1B opener against Limerick on February 15.

Cronin (knee), O’Sullivan (groin) and Harnedy (hip) are all recovering from injuries and will not be fit for the Páirc Uí Rinn clash.

“We don’t know how long they’ll be out for yet, we’re waiting on medical reports from Dr Con [Murphy] and [physio] Declan O’Sullivan. They’re in the process of rehab so we’ll know more soon.”
