A potential Cork hurling flashpoint has been avoided with the news that an anniversary game, due to feature the Cork senior hurlers, has been postponed.

Cork were set to play a St. Colman's College selection to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the College, leaving the county with the potential embarassment of being unable to field a team.

However, Croke Park bosses have stepped in and helped to avert a sticky situation by confirming that the ban on inter-county games in November and December would means that that match could not take place.
