Beara secretary and Cork’s Munster Council delegate Joseph Blake says the county should consider home and away fixtures for club championship group games.

At present, all three rounds of the Cork county championship group phase are played at neutral grounds. Blake’s suggestion is that Rounds 1 and 2 are played home and away, with Round 3 games staged at neutral venues.
