Cathail O’Mahony’s inter-county season appears over as a significant hamstring tear means the Cork footballer will be sidelined for up to 10 weeks.

The Cork forward suffered a Grade 3 hamstring tear late in the first-half of the county’s relegation play-off against Westmeath on Saturday and will not feature for Cork again this season unless they are still alive in the All-Ireland Championship come late August.
