Former Waterford ace John Mullane says Cork are “going to be a dangerous animal” if they can get back to Croke Park this summer.

The Rebels tore up the script on All-Ireland champions Limerick last weekend to reignite their summer campaign and Mullane feels they’re a side “well capable” of a Liam MacCarthy Cup triumph.

"You don't know what this Cork team are going to bring to the table. And you just don't. It's so frustrating from a Cork supporter's point of view because they all actually don't know," he said on Independent.ie's GAA podcast The Throw In.

"The next day out against Waterford or Clare, what kind of performance are they going to get? Are they going to get (the Limerick) performance or are they going to get the performance against Tipperary? And that's what these Cork players have to decide going forward."

He added: "They're well capable of pushing on and getting out of Munster and winning the All Ireland and I actually did say after the league that Cork's biggest challenge would be getting out of Munster. If they get out of Munster and get back to Croke Park, they're going to be a dangerous animal.”
