Blaithin, Aimee’s sister, has returned to the squad from a medial knee ligament injury
captain Clodagh McCambridge was gutted to hear confirmation star forward Aimee Mackin had suffered another season-ending cruciate knee ligament injury.
“She has so much talent, adds so much to us on the pitch, now it’s just what can she add to the group off the pitch, which is loads of leadership.Michael Murphy: Convoy pictures frame Donegal’s growing belief in the message“She’s a big loss, but we’ve tried to accept it, there’s not much we can do as a team to change it and training has been really positive this week. We have Blaithin Mackin back in and she’s flying, we just have to focus on what we can do now with the people there.
“In that game we lost Aimee, we lost Louise Kenny , so you come away with an Ulster title but it’s bittersweet when you’re losing those players coming into the All-Ireland championship. “I know Aimee will do whatever she can, it’s a glimmer of hope when you see the performances she put in the first year coming back after doing her cruciate. There’s always that potential next year. Hopefully all goes well with the rehab and we’ll have her back flying again.
