There are plenty of leaders on this Cork senior camogie team. But the calibre of subs Matthew Twomey was able to introduce in Nowlan Park on Saturday provided them with a real shot in the arm in their impressive All-Ireland semi-final win over Galway.

The Mackey twins Katrina and Pamela, Laura Treacy, Hannah Looney, Libby Coppinger and skipper Amy O’Connor are just a few of those marquee names that were slated in from the start. Then, to be able to bring in Cliona Healy, Laura Hayes, Ashling Thompson, Orla Cronin and Orlaith Cahalane had a huge effect in such a close game. A definite boost.
