Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[red&blue]

Era we'll focus on our own lads. Some good guys coming through, might take them a couple of years to adjust to the pace of I-C but definitely Cork in a more positive place than this time last year.

We were, you brought up Kyle Hayes

Anyone know the scoop with injuries - will any of the lads missing so far this year be back for the LK game?

Seeing as he warmed up with the panel before the Tipp game I’d expect Daire O Leary to be named on the bench

Is TO’M a long term injury or should he be back soon enough in the league?

Haven’t heard any info on Tim to be honest. Maybe we have him on some secret project to turn him into Will O Donoghue

In all seriousness, if Cork don’t get a handle on Limerick and stop looking at them as some kind of superhumans, we are destined to fail. Cork never feared any county, now we’re parading around like prima donnas wilting at the first sign of combat. Next Saturday will be an indication of another collapse or finally playing like men!

Next Saturday will tell nothing about the Cork v Limerick Championship match. It ll take a win in the round Robin before Cork can regain their dignity in that rivalry. Currently they are a bit off but iv seen enough already to feel like they are going in the right direction.
Lads Will O Donoghue and Kyle Hayes are generational players. Iv watched WOD over the years and he's improved out and out but he had the physical attributes to play any game. He's fast and a hulk of a man and passes brilliantly. Hayes is on another level again. Neither are stick men and both have something Cork don't have at the moment.. Raw unfiltered aggression. Hayes would decapitate a fella if he needed to. You either have that or you don't.
Like a poster said Cork have to be true to the red Jersey and there's more than one way to skin a cat. Skill and speed will get you so far but do need a WOD type ...If there was a young Bill Cooper..that would be enough in my opinion. Ben O Connor is very young but he has that aggression and so does Dalton but Dalton has no wheels so has to be full forward.
Limerick aren't over rated. They are actually still under rated . They are a phenomenal side..not a silky Tipp or Cork type or a technically Unreal Kilkenny . They are true to themselves and Limerick hurling. When the game is in the melting pot or they need their best game in An All Ireland Final it must be a pleasure to Kiely to look at the calibre of man he has sitting in that dressing room. From goalie out...some men

Well said, I’m hoping see a few fellas make a name for themselves next Saturday and show everyone that Cork are going to physical and aggressive this year. No more nice lads please

You’re right in a way in that we have to start standing up to them, I’m sick of the fuckers doing as they please with us, but next Saturday won’t define our season either way. We just have to look at last years league game against the same opposition for proof of that
