Cork Footballers

[Banofie Magpie]

Those are not huge numbers by modern standards (and for all the maligned comment on football). It's Cork's scoring ability that is a bigger problem. We relied on three goals to beat Donegal who had 16 scores as you say to our 11/12 (can’t remember the exact number).

Definitely. If we converted our chances we’d be contenders for top 6.

Or going over and back across the field like Ciaran Kilkenny… he became so indoctrinated that after Gavin left he had to be dropped by Farell cause he couldn’t play going forward with the ball!

8 All Ireland medals and 6 All Stars worth of indoctrination all the same.

Not to mention the fact that he played every game under Dessie, the two games he was dropped for, he came on in one after 20 odd minutes and started the AI final after that.

Stop stop stop.One of the greatest ever.
No fouling from him.
If we had him he would be on our hurling team....just as good a hurler.

He WAS just as good a hurler 12 years ago at the grade he played back then

And your point is.?

My point is what you said is wrong, he wouldn’t get near the cork hurling team or any intercounty hurling team now, you should have to be correct contextualised the point that 12 years ago when he was hurling at minor, at that age group at that time he was very good

I think the point he was making was that if we had a player like Kilkenny that was good at football and hurling, he would be with the hurling panel. Might have read it totally wrong though

Are you ok.?

I had the misfortune to mind a club hurling team against Ciaran K when he was moving out of nappies and my gang were moving into them. I would say that if he declared for Antrim in the morning they would take him . It is possible that Derek and the Dubs might even start him on a hurling team.......if he was willing
