Up and running Ciara O'Sullivan eager for return to Cork's 'norm' 

O'Sullivan lay on a chiropractor’s table every week for well over a month. She’s still attending six months on, even if the sessions are now more spaced out

Watching Ciara O’Sullivan glide up and down the field at Armagh’s Athletic Grounds a fortnight ago and watching O’Sullivan kick five from play, you’d not think this was a 32-year-old with two bulging discs, a dodgy knee, and all the other wear and tear that comes with 16 seasons on the road.

We wouldn’t dream of saying that O’Sullivan rolled back the clock with her All-Ireland quarter-final player of the match performance because, simply put, the half-forward has never stopped rolling and raiding since the late Éamonn Ryan called the then 17-year-old into the Cork panel for the 2008 season.
