MICHAEL HURLEY HAS been drafted into the Cork minor football team for their Electric Ireland Munster MFC semi-final tie against Tipperary tonight.
Hurley, a younger brother of Cork senior Brian who starred for the county U21 team this year, is named at left corner-forward by manager Ephie Fitzgerald.
He replaces Aidan Moynihan in the only change from the side that defeated Kerry by 3-6 to 0-10 in their opening round replay in Tralee at the end of April.
There is one positional change to the team as Jack Bushe comes out to wing-forward with Richard O’Sullivan moving in to start at corner-forward.
