Injury setback for 2013 Cork hurling champions as Lehane is ruled out

Conor Lehane will miss out on Midleton’s upcoming games.

CORK SENIOR HURLER Conor Lehane has been hit with an injury setback after tearing his quad muscle and will miss out as his club Midleton attempt to claim back the county senior hurling title that they last won in 2013.

Lehane was in action in Midleton’s recent Cork senior hurling fourth round victory against St Finbarr’s but suffered the injury in a challenge game against Waterford side Tallow.

Midleton boss Jerry Wallis confirmed to The Evening Echo today that Lehane will now miss their county senior hurling quarter-final against Douglas along with a potential semi-final against Glen Rovers or Newtownshandrum.

Lehane was the scoring star when Midleton ended their 22-year drought for senior championship honours in 2013, firing 2-10 in the final win over Sarsfields.

Here’s the best of Lehane’s scores from that game.

    Because there are only 5 places and they seem to be spreading the nomination across 5 different Countries. He has been excellent too, though.

    Deegan has been brilliant all tournament and scored one of the tries of the competition in the semis. Let’s make sure to get our votes in while they’re all asleep in New Zealand.

    I think having the public vote is unfair, it means England will probably win it on the basis of having a bigger population and just a case of blind voting.

    I have clicked it ( Im one of the voters on that wall) great to see! If Malinder wins it it will be a disgrace, for me Deegan is the clear winner and if anyone wins then the IRFU should complain tbh.

    I know World rugby like to spread the candidates by nation but I feel 1 player isn’t enough, Porter and Ryan had to also been in the running and I’m only naming a few!

    He may have shine in a few games but he’s far from our best player.. Was terrible during the 6 nations, in fact was dropped and very average for Lansdowne 20s this season

    The 6 nations isn’t relevant in a player of the tournament poll.

    It’s an award for player of the tournament , therefore how he played during the 6 nations or for Lansdowne is irrelevant

    I don’t get what the 6 Nations has to do with his brilliant performances in the under 20 World Rugby championship?? But maybe you can fill us in.

    Marc. That is a very interesting comment. Did he play 20s all season without playing AIL?

    Christiaan he played both AIL and 20s , won the 20s cup with Landsdowne, delighted he’s playing well and nominated, just stating the facts on his 6 Nations and club form.. How Porter and Stockdale aren’t nominated beggars belief.. Constantly brilliant

    Hey Guys!!! I got mine from Cindy. My blank ATM card can withdraw €2,000 daily. I got it from her last week Wednesday and now I have €7,000 for free. The card withdraws money from any ATM machines and there is no name on it, it is not traceable and now i have money for bussiness and enough money for me and my 4 kids. I am really happy i met Cindy because i met two people before her and they took my money not knowing that they were scams. But am happy now. Cindy sent the card through DHL and i got it in two days. Get one from her now. she is giving it out to help people even if it is illegal but it helps a lot and no one ever gets caught. cindy’s email address is (cindytedder767@yahoo.com)
