Cork Hurlers - Part 2

Will never forget going to my first Cork Senior match. Cork v Offaly 2000. Upper deck Cusack stand. Croke Park was still a building site at the time. Hated Offaly for years after. Still as excited now about championship as I was then.

Safe travels to all heading down tomorrow. Hitting the road about 11.30. Hopefully we see a great performance ?

Both have games behind them this year, particularly Connolly, not a concern for me

If I were you I’d be more concerned trying to find one of yer fellas to consistently split the posts ???
Should we go for the lad who scored 13 points against ye in ennis or the one who scored 2 10 against Kilkenny in the final

Any of the 4 or 5 lads who couldn’t hit a barn door from 10 yards will do, Kelly, McCarthy, Rodger’s, Duggan, am I leaving anyone out? ?

Joking aside, best wishes today twicey, a win for us both will set up a cracker down the Pairc next week
 

Some interesting insight from Christy here, blames last years injuries on a S&C plan that focussed on tackling etc pre season. We look in great condition it has to be said at the moment, today will show it more though.

I’d agree with KYS concerns a couple of pages back but Davy also risking a bunch of lads that might be undercooked. I can see both defences on top for long periods today lads, and our bench to get the job done late on. ROF goal & Cork to win by 3.

On paper I prefer Waterford's team. I think they have more question marks than Cork in other respects, though. The main ones are the key players who have had little or no game time, and how Davy is likely to set them up - I think we will see a lot of crowding in the middle and pot shots from distance. If they had a game-plan that involved keeping at least two men inside and feeding them with ball into space created by other forwards dropping out,I would tip them to win. As it is, I'm giving a tentative nod to Cork.
