Transition over as Cork hit their stride

The banter will stop flowing 90 minutes before throw-in, and like the flick of a switch, Cork will focus.

After their pre-match meal, they’ll board the bus and head for the dressing rooms under the stand at the far side of St Brendan’s Park.

Goalkeeper Martina O’Brien will sit next to Rosscarbery’s Aine Hayes, as she’s always done, and the silence will kick in.
