Local Hero: no let up for Erin's Own talisman Kieran Murphy 

The former Cork star will lead the club into a county semi-final this weekend.

HERO STORY: Erin's Owns' Kieran Murphy is fouled by Na Piarsaigh's Kelvin Forde during the Co-Op Superstores Cork PSHC clash at Pairc Ui Rinn earlier this season.

It was one month after his 17th birthday when Kieran 'Hero' Murphy made his senior hurling championship debut for Erin’s Own. The year was 2000.

Twenty-three seasons later, Murphy, now 39 years young, is still turning out for the Erin’s Own seniors.
