Ciaran Kilkenny's return from long term injury is soon.
The Dublin star tore his cruciate ligament while playing for Dublin in the League last March.
It saw him miss the entire Championship campaign as the Boys in Blue won Leinster before losing to Donegal in the All Ireland semi final.
But Kilkenny says he's only 3 weeks away from getting back to fitness and has targeted the O'Byrne Cup in the New Year for his return.
