Hurley and those frees ?

It’s malpractice to have him take them. It’s not like they don’t have options.

Powter needs to go back to the backs . Start a cronin or sherlock for jones inside. Need a cathal o mahony back also

Who knows that the chances of it happening but a fit O’Mahony changes this team significantly.

Hurley and those frees ?

Sherlock come on. Kicked a massive pont and also a free. Hurley missed 1 in 1st half on the 21 and dropped 2 frees on top of keeper .. ridiculous. He's consistently missing storable frees

 

[Come off the stage]

Cork should have won that game by 6 or 7 points. Need to be more clinical

And if they don’t make a change it’s straight madness. It drives me crazy.

He's back training and played a few challenge games I think. Must be close.

Are we seriously going to keep starting each game with Hurley as the free taker? He is not up to it at this level from placed balls and tonight could have cost us again, this has been going on for years and is a basic requirement.
50% scoring return from 20 plus shots is abysmal and points to a team with brittle confidence, our inside line is t half as good as it’s talked about, please god Maguire and o’callaghan never get injured as we haven’t played anyone at midfield or subbed them off in any game yet which is totally normal

Who would you have the sub midfielders?? Been looking myself since the champio

What other players would you like to see playing at midfield...

42% conversion rate off placed balls won't do going forward, lucky it was not fatal to the result yesterday

True. That scandal wouldn’t do at junior B, not to mind Inter county where the average is now 80%. Dean Rock was 90% inside 35m.
If Cork had Dean Rock stats on the frees and a consistent scoring forward they’d rattle an Ireland.

We have an excellent free taker and don’t use him. Sherlock has played well as impact sub and maybe should be started.We should have been out of sight against Clare in first half and Chris Og Jones might be the one dropping to subs. Team is creating goal chances but not taking them and at this point, Cathal O’ Mahony would be a strong addition to attack. Powter could drop back to halfback and maybe Rory Maguire would be an option as replacement midfielder.Donegal are up next, and we can definitely give them a rattle.. maybe overturn them in Páirc Ui Rinn.
