CORK STAR DARRAGH Fitzgibbon is named on the benck for the Rebels’ All-Ireland SHC Round 2 qualifier Round meeting with Tipperary tomorrow.
The 2018 All-Star winner could be in line for his inter-county return at LIT Gaelic Grounds [throw-in 4pm] having been out with a hamstring injury lately.
Fitzgibbon had been in stellar club form, helping Charleville reach the top level of senior hurling on Leeside after scoring 1-8 in their final victory last month.
Kieran Kingston has named an unchanged starting XV after Cork beat Dublin last time out. Tipperary named their team earlier this evening.

The Chances of Giggs being the next permanent manager of United are zero.
Giggs taking over and helping United to more success is a sentimental notion I’d love to buy into.
However, I’d find it hard to believe they’d give him the job before he can prove he’s capable of managing at a high standard.
Moyes was also a sentimental notion that had me bought but look how that ended.
