following a 3–11 to 2–7 defeat of Tipperary once again. Cork faced their old rivals Wexford in the subsequent All-Ireland decider, however, that game ended in a draw. In the replay Cork went into overdrive and Moylan won a third All-Ireland medal following a 5–17 to 0–8 thrashing. Senior Moylan made his senior debut for Cork during the 1969–70 National League. It was a successful campaign for the Rebels as an aggregate 5–21 to 6–16 defeat of New York secured the National Hurling League title for Cork. Moylan was an unused substitute for the final. It would be a Munster semi-final defeat by Tipperary in 1973 before he made his championship debut. After being dropped from the team for a number of seasons, 1976 saw Moylan win his first Munster medal as Limerick were beaten by 3–15 to 4–5. The subsequent All-Ireland final saw Cork face old rivals Wexford. In one of the worst starts to a championship decider, Cork were 2–2 to no score in arrears after just six minutes.

Martin Coleman made some miraculous saves in the dying minutes as Cork held on for a 1–17 to 3–8 victory. It was Moylan's second All-Ireland medal. In 1978 Cork set out to secure an impressive third successive All-Ireland title. The team go off to a good start with Moylan, having been restored to the starting fifteen, collecting a second Munster medal after a 0–13 to 0–11 defeat of Clare in a dour provincial decider. This victory paved the way for Cork to take on Kilkenny in the subsequent All-Ireland final. The stakes were high as Cork were attempting to capture a first three in-a-row since 1954. The game, however, was not the classic that many expected. Cork were never really
