A senior member of the Cork football panel says he and his team-mates will need to be ready for a battle when they take on Clare this Sunday.

The sides clash in the Munster semi-final at Pairc Uí Rinn, with Cork heavy favourites for the game after they reached the Division One League Final.
A number of Clare players are also struggling to be fit, but forward Donncha O'Connor says the Rebels will still need to be at their best.
Meanwhile, Cavan's Joe McQuillan has been confirmed as referee for Sunday's game.
McQuillan refereed the All Ireland Finals of 2011 and 2013, and also Clare's Championship loss to Kildare last year.
