Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[Hurlywurly]

Right, im sure some posters are going to lose their shit over today, and that’s ok, everyone has their opinions, but I’m not. Why? I thought we put in an incredible effort to stay in that game today, especially after the sending off

I will come back to todays game later but looking foward the bare facts are this, we are in a 3 way competition with Tipperary and Waterford for third. spot .

Limerick are beating Tipp as I post and they will beat us and waterford too, Clare will probably do the same to Tipp and Waterford although I wouodnt bank on them to be honest

But if they do then we need Tipp to beat Waterford and then we beat Tipp and all 3 will finish on 2 points with scoring difference to determine who qualifies.

That’s what we are now reduced to, and that’s what I’m clinging on to

Fair play R&B. I agree, the lads gave it everything.
We're on life support but still plugged in!
You'd hope that the players don't switch it off themselves after today.
There's still a glimmer so they have to pick themselves up and go again.

Absolutely shattered.

Harsh reality is, not good enough. Shane Barrett squares that ball to Brian Hayes we are eight points up. Niall o Leary fantastic throughout should’ve fouled his man before the Clare 1st goal.
Tim O Mahony is not good enough to play for cork. Anyone that says his efforts today are his work rate were incredible are missing the point. That is a given at this level.
Robbie oFlynn doesn’t look anywhere near Robbie oFlynn. SOD he will be hurting, he probably cost us a 50-50 chance of getting something from that game.
Patrick Collins- is he that bad? Puckouts look like they were getting caught in the wind.
The old guard stood up, but yet again, that’s not a solution to corks long-term problems.
We concede far too many frees and long range points, and we are not streetwise enough to nullify a complete gimp like Owens, that Ref loves to be the center of attention and we allowed it to happen. Being physical is not about bashing people on the head like we have said before it is about fighting to tooth and nail for every ball and not letting your man get the better of you.
Clare, were missing their best player today. We are just not good enough.

Far cry from your bullying of anyone here over the winter that told ya we are shite.

Just in and watching the Limerick game just seen Peter Casey, omg, the poor lad.

On our game, puckouts killed us and way too many passengers.

And subs made little impact

yellow is harsh but correct by the rulebook(3rd man tackle), O'Donnell also makes a meal of it, if ref is equally strict with yellows for the full match it probably finishes 12 a side, Horgan and Connolly certainly got fouled a lot
I think Clare would win anyway as they had already come level, our real chance was to kick on when we went 6/7 up,
at that point we had to win or draw the next 20 mins and we couldnt,
39 mins 1.17 to 0.13, 64 mins 1.23 to 3.23 so in 25 mins we score 0.6 and concede 3.10

Wouldnt waterford go through on head to head?

What’s most worrying is that not only can’t we win or compete in the air but now it seems we can’t win or compete for ground ball either. Poor as Collins puck outs were I’d hate to be in his shoes looking out at guys who you know are most unlikely to win the ball. Puck outs are crucifying us at both ends of the field. If there have 80 puck outs today (est) in total and your opponent wins 65 of those, you’re in deep deep trouble.

 

[The Dagda]

OK. Good man , a non existent puck out strategy and being bullied of the ball Is my fault. FUCK OFF . I will be supporting this team in 2 weeks and the Cork Football team after. Away now Langer

They had a puc out strategy you tool, but a lack of forwards to win it and more importantly a keeper unable to execute it. The real turning point was the sending off but we are still short a few physical players up front.

You weren't even at the ground you absolute fuckwit. All youre good for is repeating the same empty shit.
So once again,
Fuck off you tool and don't be annoying me.

Fair summation R&B. Maybe (maybe) we could get a point v Limerick. Granted that looks extremely unlikely but you’d never know. Tipp look absolutely woeful; though limerick do that to teams I suppose.

I can't believe what I'm seeing every game with this keeper. He's nowhere near good enough to do what they are asking him to do. No game management or cuteness to him. He's not picking himself though.

Connolly starved of ball again. Jesus Christ it's infuriating watching it.

Hoggy was very good today. We made plenty of goal chances but butchered a lot of them. To score 3-24 and lose is a serious issue.

James Owens is a liability as ref as usual but we made our own problems tbh.
