2023 Premier SHC

Went to the Park expecting 2 crackers, came home thinking God help whichever team is playing Ballygunner, I get how some lads here are pissed with divisions but the County Board has alot to answer for, expecting lads to play 2 days in a row, why did they fix game yesterday @ 5.00 and not earlier, Player welfare has to come into this regardless whether you agree with divisions or not. We expect the Joyce lad to be the Anchor man for the next 10 years but still the board give him Zero respect this weekend, bet it wouldn't happen in Limerick

The flip side of that is that divisions have endless depth so can use a fit player if they feel a player is too tired from playing the day before? It’s not an ideal situation of course but there shouldn’t be an over-accommodation of the divisions either. The clubs don’t have the same type of depth to turn to.

It doesn’t say a lot that the two clubs contesting the final don’t really have an exceptional or regular with Cork. Lehane is inconsistent and there are panelists involved but you need to top players for Cork producing the goods for their clubs to the point of getting them to county finals. The second game today was really poor.

Spot on

"it doesn’t say a lot" = it's irrelevant.
I agree, it is irrelevant that neither Midleton nor Sars have "exceptional" Cork players in their teams.

Cork players are drawn from multiple clubs, bit of an ask for the one or two "regular" Cork players in each club to be dragging them to a final year on year.

It's still a team game, there's still room for the slolely club players to play their part.

Ridiculously harsh criticism of the quality of the games as well.

Hear hear.
 
If the board were looking after player welfare they’d offer Newcestown a week off for their players to recover
Think they’ve played 9 of the last 10 weeks

Finished football game on orange warning day in Coachford around 5pm on a Sunday after extra time v Kanturk

Out 6 days later then in Pairc for first game in double header v Carrig. Why not fix it for Sunday and give them an extra fay

Promote both codes and you’re shafted if successful
Promote one code and you have all the time in the world to match prep
 
Didnt see any of the games unfortunately. How did McCarthy get 5 points, was he actually playing in the corner or was he out the field ? Some going either way its just Very unusual to see that
 
Barrs made no use of their bench yesterday, Surely their was an option there to use?
Noticed that alright it was surprising as their 2nd team are out of championship

Thought imokilly didn’t utilise their bench well either, given how many lads had played two games over the weekend. Surely there were lads there who could have done 10/15 mins at the end of normal time to see them over the line
