Well 30 years ago senior hurling was all city teams. And then the smaller east cork teams developed there underage teams and now the majority of the best hurlers come from east cork. Something u find hard to comprehend. Seadun could be there too competing if they put any bit of effort into hurling. That’s a stupid question you asked. “How many teams could beat imokilly?”. You could say the same for sars and midleton. Or any of the stronger teams over years such as the bars team last year. They strolled through every game except the first. There’s strong teams and not so strong teams every year, just happened imokilly r strong this year. But the imokilly side any even that strong they had 2 walk overs and look better than they are. “How many teams could beat midleton?” Still teams show up and try to win when they play midleton. Blackrock beat the stripes last year and the glen year before. And all the castlemartyr boys are playing the day before with their club. So I guarantee sars v imokilly will be a tight game. I fancy sars to win. But you think you be more accepting of players from smaller clubs playing a higher grade of hurling as so many cork players had played for the stripes e.g. Seamus h, Niall ol, deccie dalton, get mellerick, pebbles, bill cooper, joycey and etc.So the rest should just close up their gates and forget about hurting because they can’t beat Imokilly Maybe they should all join the super club from the Barony
