It might be viewed as a potential negative in some quarters, but as far as captain Molly Lynch is concerned, the Cork camogie team have reaped the benefits of being away from competitive action for an extended period.

Courtesy of finishing at the summit of Group Two with five wins from as many games - and a score difference of +91 - the Leesiders automatically qualified for this weekend’s All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship semi-finals. A curtain-raiser to the clash between Galway and Tipperary in the same venue, defending champions Cork will take on surprise package Dublin at Nowlan Park on Saturday (throw-in 1.15pm) for a spot in the O’Duffy Cup decider in Croke Park on August 11.
