McConville has been an ever-present for Cross for 12 years
|
Oisin McConville will be fit for Crossmaglen's All-Ireland football semi-final against St Vincent's despite undergoing back surgery last week.
McConville picked up an injury during the warm-up for the quarter-final against Tir Chonail in London but played through the pain barrier.
This maintained his record of having played every minute of Championship football for Cross over 12 years.
"I feel good and have done all the training this week," said McConville.
"I went under the knife last week in London for my back problem but they tell me it is definitely sorted out this time so hopefully that is me for a couple of years.
"I am feeling strong, am back in training and have not missed any games or crucial training sessions."
McConville added that the whole squad was fully fit and it is all down to "performing on the day" next Sunday.
"It is the first time in a long while that we have had a full panel to pick from," he said.
