Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[HurlingFan19]

Any idea how both teams lined out?

Mellerick gone injured, last thing he needs

Tim injury earlier but looked minor

Oh hope Ger is ok we need this fella this year ...hope its nothing serious ?

Looked like hamstring I'd say. But hopefully not bad.
Noticable actually was how many players seemed to pull up with little tweeks, Tim was hamstring also. And ucc lost players with same

Well lads, safe to say i don't think Keane will be any saviour. Didn't look like a senior hurler tonight but maybe the summer might suit him.

No one is suggesting he is our saviour, but give the guy some time to get up to speed at least

Definitely injury related though, he went down stretching it after ball was gone and immediately called deccie sull in. Maybe not serious hopefully but it was definitely bothering him

You'd wonder did Cork ever look at the All Ireland Final video? Nothing learned on tonights showing. Over indulgence in short passing, Coleman cleaned again at center back. Super player Coleman but not a centerback. No quick low ball to the forwards. We could go on.

Also announce the team at 1pm today and by 7pm 2 personnel changes, one of whom came on as a sub and only 6 people start in the positions as announced.
Who do they think they are fooling? Have some respect for the the Cork supporters please.

Savage crowd biggest I've seem for this fixture. Well done supporters!

Still a lot of hype around a fella who may or may not be a bit part player going forward. So much so that Kingston couldn't even name him to start when they named the team because of the hype.

Was impressed with Millerick tonight, scored an outstanding point in the first half. Joyce carried his underage form into the game. James O'Flynn can be happy with his nights work too.
Darragh Fitz drove forward at every opportunity and looked dangerous.
Mark Keane just looked off the pace of the game I felt. Downey didn't give him a sniff whether it was a high ball or low, that being said Downey had one of the best games I've seen him play. Looks comfortable out on the wing. Niall O Leary was on everyone's heels all night.
None of the subs seemed to get into the game when they came on. Cork went a bit flat at that point.
