Shane Ryan (Rathmore) 8
Denied Cork a pair of first half goal chances, including one from Mark Cronin, who had another three bites at the cherry in the second half, two denied by Ryan, one from the penalty spot, one from the rebound. His restarts were on point too. A man-of-the match display honestly.

Kerry's ace forward Amy O'Sullivan says groundwork for win was laid in midfield
O'Sullivan scored 2-3 in Kerry's Group 2 win over Carlow but she's expecting a much tougher test away to Down in the second game in the Intermediate Championship Kerryman Amy O'Sullivan has been a key player over the last number of years, but this year she has really elevated her game. She was the third highest scorer in Division 2 of the National Camogie League (Patrice Diggin was second) and the top scorer from play with 6-9. To say that O'Sullivan has maintained that standard coming into the All-Ireland Intermediate Championship is an understatement – she struck for a whopping 2-3 in the first half in Saturday's Group 2 opener to really put the kibosh on Carlow's chances. The catch for her first point was a particular highlight of the game, and a really spectacular piece of skill.
