Pat Ryan rules out naming Cork 'dummy team' as fresh injury doubt emerges

"I don't believe in pulling strokes, to be honest. We'll turn up, we'll man up, we'll go at you and leave the other opposition do the same to us," says Ryan.

Cormac O’Brien has emerged as an injury doubt for Cork’s All-Ireland hurling semi-final against Dublin, manager Pat Ryan has confirmed.

The Rebels have already been dealt an injury blow ahead of the last-four clash at Croke Park as Séamus Harnedy, who Ryan believes is irreplaceable, was ruled out at the beginning of the week with a hamstring injury that could also see him miss the final, should they progress.
