St Patrick’s Cullyhanna star Ross McQuillan says lining out in tomorrow’s All-Ireland club intermediate football championship final at Croke Park will be the stuff dreams are made of.

The Armagh champions will battle it out with Cork counterparts Cill na Martra at HQ (throw-in 3.30pm), where both sides will look to end their respective campaigns on a remarkable high.

Speaking to BBC Sport NI this week ahead of the decider, McQuillan said that he knows it'll be a rare occasion to savour.

"It really is special to be playing at Croke Park with St Patrick's Cullyhanna. You dream of it but you're not sure it will ever happen,” said the Armagh wing forward.

"If you had have said to us last year it wouldn't have been believable to be brutally honest. We would have had ambitions of winning Armagh championship and being the first Cullyhanna team to win Ulster, but to put it into action is completely different and we are delighted to be where we are."

On tomorrow’s opposition, he added: "They will be a big, physical side who are able to compete in the air. They will be a real Cork team.

"There will be lots of goal opportunities so we're hoping to snuff them out and play the way we want to play. We won't change anything and hopefully it will work out for us."
