There appears to be a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel in the ongoing Cork hurling strike.
Cork's hurling panel have made themselves unavailable for selection in a long-standing row over the appointment of Gerald McCarthy as manager.
However, players have asked for 'more information' about a proposed meeting with the County Board Executive and the Cork management team, led by McCarthy.
The invitation to talks came last week from county board chairman Jerry O'Sullivan, father of senior stars Diarmuid and Paidi.
While the players have not yet agreed to sit around the same table as the manager they are refusing to play under this season, they have indicated to RTÉ that it looks likely they will attend a meeting this week.
