    The Hurling Thread

    After this Cork should never ever agree to play Clare in Limerick in any grade. They're practically saying its as good as a home match for them. Cork v clare at a neutral venue should always be Thurles. Or seeing as Cork is so far for them maybe they should just go back into Connacht as they...

    Good post but Limerick did a lot of cynical fouling of our forwards when we were trying to engineer goal chances. You could call it cuteness.

    Gillane was cute in the two instances and the decisions went his way. In fairness if it was the other way around we wouldn't be complaining. I thought the Kyle Hayes belt was a red though. But lads...our puck outs were a disaster. Limerick dominated us around the middle in that early second half...

    Looks like from where I am that we'll be well outnumbered.

    You can't ban/limit the handpass and not ban swarm tackling. It's one of the greatest blights on the game.

    He even won the first ball in the air when he was on as a temporary sub. It was madness persisting with O Conell. It was a strange match up to begin with but how they didn't change it I'll never know. Clare couldn't believe their luck. When it was obvious Kelly wasn't doing as much damage on...

    Lads we'll win tomorrow if we're good enough. All this talk about fortress Ennis is a bit of a joke. It's mostly coming from Clare people. As if Cork would ever be compromised just because of a venue. They were on about Walsh Park last year too but Cork blew that outta the water. Anybody know...

    Christ. You had to go back that far for Gardner. I admit that was embarassing but you should also admit the Clare lads have a habit of going down far too easy.

    RIP Andy Rourke

    I'd say Andy was hard up for cash and settled for 80,000 sterling. Joyce stuck to his guns and got a £1 million pay out and 25% of any future royalties.

    For all the talk about Tipp's ability to get goals we have outgoaled them 7 to 3 in last 2 championship matches and 10 to 4 if you include this year's Munster League game.

    Very hard to analyse that because Waterford were so bad. But Harnedy, Fitzy and Dalton had good game time after their injuries and all 3 played well and we got Robbie back and Power had a taste of it too. We gave up goal chances though which is a worry. Good 2 points. Move on now to next Sat.

    In fairness Buckets of Blood might be gone on but it was a difficult call to make. It would have been safer probably to rule it out.

    Cork Hurlers - Part 2

    if you look at our forwards for the league semi and compare them to the team picked for Sunday...there is no comparison. We look way stronger. The problem is the backs. We have more or less the same players there bar Downey, suspended, and Millerick who is in. Lets hope our forwards can up the...

    Your first few lines are spot on. I thought the backs were second to all the fast ball in the first half...constantly behind their men and Limerick made hay. Different second half though. I imagine that was one of the things that they got a good bollocking on at half time.
