Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[Matlock]

Clear body check but if O Donoghue had hit the ground as well he might have gotten away with it as a collision. Stand tall and macho while O Donnell was on the floor crying, was only going to end one way. Cuteness - something else we don’t have.

Agree 100% with this. Looking at it from a number of angles last night and I think if he had dropped he could have gotten away with it.

It wasn't the right call, esp on a yellow, but I'm sure he feels crappy enough today without calls for him to never play for Cork again! It was the turning point of the match though, I really feel that without it we would have swung the win. Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda, I know...

He would be decent but I couldn't see the CCB going for an outside manager

I think the whole place can see that Pat and co are not a good fit , it’s just a case of will they walk or wait to he shoved out .
1 championship win lads

Spot on twice Stupid out of SOD and deserved the card. Good move by Clare taking Cleary off Connolly after he got a yellow card.

The only cause for optimism is to look at where Limerick were 10 years ago…

You saying if we get in a Sugar Daddy to finance everything we might win our next AI in 5 years time?

Can we be relegated

Erra Cork were already well wobbling at that point but agreed that there was no coming back from the red.

O'Donnell played for it. Hes some man to throw the arms up and then hold his face. A fine hurler but a complete Jessie otherwise.

You're looking for the football thread

 

[Corks finest]

Need a Henry Sheflin type complete outsider this in- house shite is embarrassing

 

[red&blue]

I'm aware of where we are.
2 games left.

And 2 games lost and gone

For me yes: learn whether or not this team can find a way to win the next 2 games, prove that they have mental resilience

Could we not have done that in the first two games too or don’t they count?

None of this year's U20s are anyway involved in the senior team so I'm not sure you know where we are.

I never said they were

If you do want to talk about the U20 it's a weak enough argument against the running game given they're currently 3 wins from 3.

It’s a very valid argument. This group of players absolutely dominated the minor 3 years ago playing a brand of hurling that other teams couldn’t match. Now we are looking a very different prospect, beatable, playing the running game.

Looking at the "Luke Meade goal" this morning. He actually slowed up his running (if that's possible) just before Fitzgerald cut inside. If he actually kept going he would've got the block or hook in. As it was he was inches away from it, but if he didn't stop he would've got it.
