Talisman Brian Turnbull takes game by the horns

The Cork corner-forward, as he has been all summer, was near untouchable yesterday, converting 11 placed-ball efforts and throwing over two from play. He had five to his name by the call for half-time, having won three of the four frees he floated between the sticks.
The Douglas teenager won two more frees in the second period and arguably the most important of his lot was the 63rd-minute point directly following Mark Grogan’s goal which had cut the deficit back to a single score, 2-13 to 0-22.
