Cork Hurlers - Part 2

[red&blue]

Bit of an aside, but it's good to see Eoin Downey playing for St. Nick's U21s at the weekend and Sean O'D winning a county for Inniscarra, in other times and other places they might be kept in cotton wool.

Absolutely, there are others who could have done the same but didn’t, for whatever reason, but it should be encouraged in the off season, it’s good for the player to be playing with his own when he can

100% , Pat Ryan is a great man manager and sees the bigger picture. The opposite seems to be happening in Tipp and it's not creating much goodwill towards Cahill before a ball is even pucked. Cahills direct style worked well with underage sides but at senior level lads aren't going to take it as easily and be dictated to, especially while you're not winning games. I work with a couple of very loyal Tipp supporters but they've almost written off '25 already which I've never seen them do before.

Oh definitely, he’s not been dropped since 2022.

A HB line of C Joyce, R Downey & Daire would be powerful.

Thanks for that lads. Much appreciated. Only the Wexford game available to select at the moment but I presume the rest of them are released closer to the time

I just downloaded mine. At first it looked like only the Wexford game was available but if you click the arrow next to each game the tickets appear

Ticketmaster don’t make things simple unfortunately

That line makes sense with Mark Coleman as a roving corner forward

Having a three man full-forward line was integral to Corks successes last year so I doubt they'll revert to the two man version.

I was told Daire o Leary recently graduated as Garda and is going to be stationed in Kildare. Could possibly effect his availability

Not ideal to try juggle that alright, the days of gaa lads getting looked after with their first station seem to be gone.

We will have to lobby the Taoiseach to get him stationed in Cork
I take the point on the three man full forward line but I would like to explore a position for mark as he is too good a hurler to ignore but we can’t have him in the half back line

Sound man red & blue. That’s exactly what the issue was. All sorted now. Agree that Ticketmaster don’t make it straight forward!
