Cork and Galway both made it two wins from two to in the Very Camogie league, but champions Tipperary are hot on their heels after recording an 0-16 to 1-8 local derby win over Kilkenny in what was undoubtedly game of the day in Division 1A.

At St. Peregrine’s GAA club, Sorcha McCartan excelled as Cork moved through the gears in the second quarter to blow Dublin out of the water and take a giant leap towards their eventual 0-20 to 0-10 victory.
