Conor Dorman misses Cork’s league campaign

Cork footballer Conor Dorman will miss the county’s entire Allianz league Division 1 campaign after undergoing surgery on his ankle yesterday.

Dorman went under the knife in Dublin to correct a persistent ankle injury and with the recovery period set at 12 weeks, the 22-year old will not feature for Peadar Healy’s charges this spring.

The wing-back, who captained Cork to Munster U-21 glory in 2014 and made his senior championship debut last summer, will also miss UCC’s entire Sigerson Cup campaign which commences this afternoon with a home fixture against GMIT at the Mardyke.
