Patient Duggan making most of his chance to shine
For three seasons, Diarmuid Duggan soldiered away at the foothills of the Cork panel with only some league minutes here and there and a cameo in last year’s championship win over Meath to keep himself entertained.
If the rewards were pretty slim for the workload in the past, this year has been a different story. Duggan clocked up every minute of their five league games at corner-back, came through his first start against Limerick and then marked his first Munster final with a man-of-the-match award. Good things come to those who wait then.
