Sigerson Cup medallist Sean O’Shea had a stirring win with Kerry, curling over a sideline kick to help put Monaghan to the sword. Fitzgibbon Cup winner Shane Kingston, meanwhile, arrived in Páirc Uí Rinn with his Cork teammates to a postponement of their game with Tipperary. “It’s a big one to have,” said O’Shea of the Sigerson Cup victory. It takes a big buy-in, but you commit to it and you see the passion that lads have for it, the likes of John (Grainger, UCC GAA officer) and Tom (Kingston, UCC hurling coach). It was a great experience.”O’Shea noted the compliments for UCC’s footballing style, pointing to the difference in approach between the Sigerson Cup and inter-county competition.
