Conor O’Sullivan: Plenty time to put things right after Rebels left reeling by Kilkenny blow

You don’t have to tell Conor O’Sullivan that Cork weren’t at the required standard for last weekend’s NHL clash with Kilkenny. 

Losing to the Cats is no disgrace for any team, but a seriously understrength Kilkenny side, short on match practice and playing away from home, bossed their opponents at Páirc Uí Rinn.

O’Sullivan knows how that went down with the Cork public. How it sat with the players themselves.
