Cork name minor side as they begin bid for first Munster title in 7 years

Tipperary will be the opposition for last year’s beaten finalists tomorrow at Semple Stadium.

FOUR MEMBERS OF last year’s panel will feature for Cork in their Electric Ireland Munster minor football opener.

Kevin McMahon, captain Colm O’Callaghan, Cathail O’Mahony and Damien Gore have all been named to start for the Rebels against Tipperary in tomorrow night’s quarter-final at Semple Stadium in Thurles (7.00pm).

Also included in the side is corner-forward Mark Cronin of Nemo Rangers, whose older brother Stephen is a current Cork senior. Kanturk’s Ryan Walsh, cousin of two-time All-Star Aidan Walsh, starts at midfield.

Having lost to Kerry in last year’s Munster final, Cork are still searching for their first provincial crown since 2010.
