Cork’s need for silverware has been mentioned more than a few times before this year’s Allianz League but Patrick Collins doesn’t feel they have to win the competition.

It’s 27 years since the county last claimed a Division 1 title and seven years have passed from their previous Munster title not to mention the 20 from the last Liam MacCarthy Cup success.
