Ger Cornally (1913 - 18 April 1992) was an Irish hurler who played as a full-back for the Tipperary senior team.
Born in Thurles, County Tipperary, Cornally first arrived on the inter-county scene when he first linked up with the Tipperary junior team. He made his senior debut during the 1937 championship. Cornally immediately became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won two All-Ireland medals and three Munster medals.[1]
As a member of the Munster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, Cornally won two Railway Cup medals. At club level he was an eight-time championship medallist with Thurles Sarsfields.
Cornally retired from inter-county hurling following the conclusion of the 1948 championship.
