Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[greengrass]

'There is a lack of freshness to it' - Landers questions Cork selection

The Rebels are favourites for the clash despite Waterford returning to Walsh Park for a home game after a redevelopment.

Is Landers ever not cribbing or comparing everything current to '99 ? Or does he think he's being clever playing the dolt running us down only to say I told you so on the podcast with Dalo ?

Landers is an obnoxious tool only in it for coin. How anyone could subscribe to these golddiggers is baffling.

 

[Hurlywurly]

The abject langerish Landers stupidity of
1. thinking the demands and circumstances of the hurling championship in 1999 are comparable to 2024
2. thinking that just because players won an U20 championship they should automatically be ready to usurp players who have individually shown class and proven quality for years.

Lack of freshness me hole- check out your own stale pod mate, bunch of dull AF gossiping middle aged cronies (bar TJ).

HON the REBELS!

Same auld same auld. I hope that’s not the starting 15.

I heard Landers at some live event tell a story about a Limerick player putting on a Cork accent in a game to fool him into giving him the ball. If you believe that .....

Re Alan Connolly, I think his temperament is one of his strongest traits. I'd have no doubts that he will keep his head in the game.

Spot on

 

[red&blue]

I will be delighted if Coleman has a brilliant session but it would be foolish not to worry about the defensive abilities at half back.

Spot on, Mark is a super hurler but he seems to get a free pass on here re his defending. Hope he has a stormer on Sundaywherever he plays

 

[red&blue]

Getting ahead of ourselves here, Hegarthy will be on the other side of the country this Sunday. When it does come to pass, if all fit and available I'd imagine Downey will pick up Hegarthy and Coleman will most likely find himself on Tom Morrisey, and I'd be comfortable enough with that.

So what happens when David Fitzgerald and Peter Duggan come to town Sunday week?

Eoin Downey has to play against Clare

 

[red&blue]

This is the year for this team to step up if they don’t Ben o Connor will be parachuted in quickly and a host of his u20s

Pat Ryan has a 3 year term ending next year, barring a complete shambles that won’t change.

And be careful what you wish for. Ben O Connor is a super coach but is wedded to the running game. Just look at our current u20s who 3 years ago were playing the perfect style of hurling winning a minor all ireland. Now they are playing hari kari in our full back line.

Remind ye of any recent Cork Senior team? How did that go for us?
