No surgery for Nemo Rangers star Paul Kerrigan

Paul Kerrigan does not require surgery for the posterior cruciate ligament tear he suffered in Nemo’s Munster club SFC final win last Sunday, but he’s still a major doubt for the All-Ireland semi-final in February.

Kerrigan came off injured late in the provincial decider against Dr Crokes, with manager Larry Kavanagh subsequently confirming that the 30-year old had suffered ligament damage.

The Cork and Munster champions are penciled in to play Slaughtneil on Saturday, February 17 — just over 11 weeks away — and, while Kerrigan does not require surgery, Kavanagh is unsure as to how long the centre-forward will be sidelined for.
