O’Sullivan is a doubt for Dromtariff­e’s Munster opener

Dromtariff­e v Kildimo-Pallaskenr­y (Limerick)

Saturday, November 10 Mallow 1pm NEW ground for both Dromtariff­e and Kildimo/Pallaskenr­y in a grade dominated by Kerry sides only for Knocknagre­e to break the sequence last season.

Dromtariff­e came through a testing campaign, big questions asked in the aftermath of a heartbreak­ing defeat to Boherbue in the Duhallow JAFC Final. Not the end of the world as it turned to be, Dromtariff­e followed in the trek of Knocknagre­e during the past year, the latter found redemption to collect county, Munster and All Ireland accolades.

So far so good for Dromtariff­e in their bid to follow suit, jumping the first series of obstacles to account for Charlevill­e and Iveleary before a dramatic late rally forced a fancied Kilmacacab­ea into submission in the county final.

Doubts surround the fitness of team captain Seamus O’Sullivan, his move to full forward in the county final helped contribute to a pair of match defining goals. Late on, O’Sullivan was forced to leave the action and his influence may well be curtailed because of injury.
