Consistency key for Kieran Kingston as Cork prepare for Championship opener against Tipp

Cork hurling manager Kieran Kingston is looking for consistency from his team as their championship opener with Tipperary looms.

“I’m not going to say much about how we’ll play but starting out in the championship, we’re looking for consistency of play, not just from game to game but within games. This bunch have been criticised for lack of consistency from game to game and within games, but workrate now is a given.

“In games we’ve played well in, that’s been when the workrate has been good, and vice versa. And the Kilkenny game was a good example.”
