Rebels positively charged for 2015, insists focused Horgan

Cork hurler Patrick Horgan believes the pain of their All-Ireland semi-final collapse to Tipperary will act as a driving force for the Rebels in 2015.

The Leesiders lost 2-18 to 1-11 in a one-sided clash at Croke Park and despite winning a first Munster senior hurling title in eight years, Horgan admitted the season had been tainted somewhat by the result at GAA Headquarters.

But despite the disappointment of their championship exit, the Glen Rovers club man insists there is plenty for Cork to be positive about ahead of a season-opener against University of Limerick in the Waterford Crystal Cup this weekend.
