Murphy a doubt for Cork hurlers

Although Cork manager Denis Walsh last night named Shane Murphy in his starting line-up for tomorrow's All-Ireland SHC Phase 3 qualifier against Galway, it has emerged that a major doubt hangs over the Erin's Own defender's fitness.

Corner-back Murphy gave an outstanding performance for the Rebels in their 3-19 to 1-12 win over Offaly in Tullamore in the last round.
