Seán White’s omission from the matchday 26 for Cork’s Munster SFC semi-final win over Limerick highlights the competitiveness within the Cork panel, manager Ronan McCarthy has said.

White started all four of Cork’s League games in Division 2, but failed to make either the first 15 or matchday panel of 26 for last weekend’s championship opener at LIT Gaelic Grounds.
