Cork Footballers

[Cork99]

The Roscommon team that beat Cork by 14 points not so long ago..

Wouldn’t pay any attention that that match everything went wrong
We are good enough to beat them again like we did 2 years ago

That's professional sport.

You have a go and if you're lucky you can make a career out of it. They're not running a charity. You're either good enough for it or you're not.

Referring to Gaelic football as a native sport is quite funny when you consider the IRFU predates the GAA.

Not Gaelic games though.

 

[The truth seeker]

Not Gaelic games though.

The point remains. The IRFU came into being 6 years before the GAA.

What I dont understand and never will is a mindset that somehow trying to pursue a career as a professional sportsperson is 'pricking around'.

Daft nonsense. Best of luck to anyone who tries to pursue that dream.

Some people would say playing rugby at any level is "pricking around"

Jesus boys ye should see the meltdown over on the hurlers page… keep the heads down

Never seen anything like it for a professional franchise, one of the lads left go is there since 2020 and has played 10 games ffs

It’s professional sport.. that’s exactly what happens.
Look at the soccer academies in England. Only a tiny % end up in the premier league.

Over hyped goes to overreaction by those who haven’t a foggiest
Most of the guys I mix with didn’t think we’d win today.

I know that it’s more the injury rate that worries me about rugby, Munster don’t have a great track record of bringing through top class young players either in fairness

I see that the Louth v Monaghan game next Saturday is on GAA+. But no mention of the Cork and Meath game on any channel.
