Dearbhla Magee has insisted that Down have not given up hope of pulling off a landmark win over Cork, or Galway in their final round robin game, to avoid a relegation battle in the camogie championship.

The Ulster champions are desperate to retain their senior status but blowing a sizeable lead in the closing minutes against Clare last weekend has left them favourites to finish bottom in Group 1.
