Cork Hurlers - Part 2

2019 also had Leinster teams tied on points. In fact the first 4 teams all finished on 5 points with Galway going out on scoring difference. Amazing really how they went out on 5 points considering that was before there was an extra match in Leinster.
 
Yea that was it, i remember it too, was torrential shower at one stage, I remember being behind the goal and the rain was that heavy you could barely make out the other goal. Absolutely drowned. One match report had it as biblical downpour
Miserable day!

Clare won and were out, we lost and were through (but not looking like we would go far!), everyone was drowned wet. I don't think anyone was happy leaving the grounds.

It was the worst day I was ever at a match. Followed closely by the Killarney replay in 2015.

When that downpour happened not only could I not see the other goal I couldn’t even see the one straight in front of me!
 
I think our defensive effort further out the field has been significantly improved and we seem to be protecting our back 3 much better. The management team have had two weeks to study the opposition and two weeks knowing we are without our No 3 and No 6 - I think they will have the team well primed and hopefully the team execute the plan - with good reinforcements off the bench up top.
In the words of J Kiely

If we are depending on two guys, we are at nothing.

It's the team, the structure, the collective effort and a savage work rate that will have to compensate for being without Joyce long term and RD short to medium term.
