Picture: Domnick WalshTame conclusion to preseason as an experimental Cork hurling team are well beaten by KerryKerry 1-23Cork 1-13IT might have been a third string team but Cork’s performance in the final outing in the Munster League was disappointing. Then again things must be put into context, this was a Cork team that was assembled for this game and there would have been no preparatory plan at all. They were 1-10 to 0-6 ahead on the half-hour mark and two more Conway points from frees had the home support in raptures. Cork: D Dalton 0-8 (7 f), J Looney 1-0, E Keniry 0-3, L Meade, A Myers 0-1 each. KERRY: M Stackpoole; J Buckley, J Diggins, N O’Mahony; S Weir, B Murphy, D Dineen; B Barrett, D Griffin; C Harty, S Nolan, J Conway; P Boyle, S Conway, M O’Connor.
