Pat Ryan: 'It was a game to get us started ... we're delighted with our fellas' attitude'

Cork manager Pat Ryan was happy with his players display. 

Cork hurlers are back on the road again six months after the bitter disappointment of losing the All-Ireland final by the narrowest of margins. 

Conditions were far from ideal in the Friends of Brian Greene fundraiser in conjunction with Waterford Hospice at the Fraher Field, Dungarvan on Saturday afternoon but Cork emerged with a confidence boosting victory (1-15 to 0-10).
