Graham Canty says Cork won't be taking Limerick's challenge lightly on Saturday evening.

The Rebels scrapped championship victories over the Treaty County in 2008, 2009 and 2010, and Canty - who scored a late winning goal in the 2008 encounter - knows they will be no pushovers in this weekend's Munster SFC quarter-final at the Gaelic Grounds.

"For about 30 seconds of the 2008 game, I have happy memories, for the other 72 minutes or whatever, we were under a bit of pressure," the Bantry Blues clubman recalled in the Irish Examiner.

"That's just typical of the way that it has gone, we have played Limerick in three or four of the last five years and, especially in the Gaelic Grounds, we have had some very tough battles.

"I think that's down to Limerick, they don't allow you to play well. It's not just a case of saying 'we don't play well', you have to give credit to them for turning up and putting in a performance." Tweet
