Cork v Kerry
Now after todays games the semi finals have pitted the two major munster rivals together. Both contrasting games, kerry playing withing themselves to beat a willing but ultimately lacking mayo side while cork produced a dominant second half to beat a fancied galway side. After the narrow munster final defeat to kerry, cork have produced the goods in the qualifiers and will be fancying their chances but will it be enough to beat the all ireland champions?
I think we have a great chance. Even though they would never admit it, I'm sure Kerry will be secretly worried about this game.
Thinking back to 2002, we beat the mucksavages in the Munster Final (admittedly Kerry did not go into that game in the best frame of mind with the three O Se's having just tragically lost their father during the week) but they turned the tables on us in the All-Ireland semi-final later on. Now I bet they're thinking the same thing might happen again, except this time in reverse!
28th Augest im pretty sure.Lot of talk on the radio after the matches about playing the semi in a munster venue.Love it if it was but doubt it very much as the coperate crowd in Croke Park won't be happy.
Brilliant display today by the lads. Showed great pride and attitude when they were behind. This team can play football, and IMO from the the remaining teams left in the championship, we are the best to watch. Direct running and quick passing. I wouldnt be too worried about any blanket defence system with the way that is going.
Cant see Cork beating Kerry unfortunately. Kerry played well within themselves during the Munster Final and a repeat result in the semi-final is highly likely.

horseshit, Kerry were very lucky to win that game and their relief was visible come the final whistle.
The impressive manner of Cork's victory over Galway will have done them alot more good than Mayo's lacklustre capitulation to Kerry.
