Cork senior camogie manager Matthew Twomey asked 17 coaches to join his backroom team - but to no avail - before securing the services of Davy Fitzgerald. 

In his first year at the helm, the Douglas man who leads the Rebels to the All-Ireland final against Kilkenny on Sunday, said it was ‘frustrating and stressful’, and it was a ‘stroke of luck’ that Clare native Fitzgerald came on board.
