CORK’S TEAMS FOR their season openers this weekend have been named and hopes are high for 2016 with new men in charge of both codes.
Peader Healy begins his tenure as senior inter-county football boss against Limerick on Sunday in the McGrath Cup, throw-in 2pm, in Mallow.

It is an experimental line-up, as expected, with Conor Dorman, Mark Collins, Kevin O’Driscoll, Tomás Clancy and Brian Hurley the only men on the panel who took the field in Brian Cuthbert’s last game in charge – an eight-point qualifier defeat to Kildare last July. He has, however, opted to start the experienced Daniel Goulding at full-forward.
In hurling, Kieran Kingston, who succeeded Jimmy Barry Murphy last October, begins his reign against Clare at the same time in Sixmilebridge.
Up against Kingston will be former Cork goalkeeper Donal Óg Cusack who is now part of Davy Fitzgerald’s Banner management team.
Kingston has included a number of high-profile names in his 26-man panel with the likes of Damian Cahalane, Mark Ellis, Cormac Murphy, Shane O’Neill, Patrick Horgan, Alan Cadogan, Páidí O’Sullivan, Stephen Moylan and Bill Cooper listed.
