“How many more questions can I keep asking myself before I consider the possibility I’m losing my mind?” Dublin won easily, an inexperienced side starting their O’Byrne Cup off with a 2-15 to 0-9 victory. All-Ireland champions Kerry were hammered 5-11 to 0-14 by Cork in Páírc Uí Rinn in their McGrath Cup clash last night. Meath beat Carlow 0-16 to 1-9 in the O’Byrne Cup, to give Colm O’Rourke a win in his first game at the helm.
