UCD cruise but Jack McCaffrey a doubt for Sigerson final

UCD 4-12 UL 1-9: UCD could be without Jack McCaffrey for their first Sigerson Cup final appearance in 13 years after the footballer of the year hobbled out of yesterday’s semi-final contest with a hamstring injury.

The Dublin half-back was removed from the action at the end of the first quarter when attempting to move the ball out of defence and although his services weren’t required to see UCD progress, the Belfield outfit are now sweating on his fitness ahead of today’s final joust with rivals DCU.

“He came over to the sideline and said he felt his hamstring when he was working the ball out. It doesn’t look to good, to be honest,” said UCD manager John Divilly.
