Just my thoughts, a break from Cork top 3 talk...
I felt Owens did fine on Saturday, not perfect but who is.
I have no love for Lim or KK, they will bury the opposition every chance they get. They have a killer instinct that Cork need to find, a nasty streak.
Both Lim & KK have been tapping, striking and hitting opposition players with hurleys and hands for years all while trying to flick the ball away / slow down opposition.
Owens rightly started blowing for this on Sat.
Lim & KK strategically do this to stop the opposition getting into a flow IMO. Make no mistake, this is coached and why wouldnt they do it if it helps yo win games.
I felt Hegarty played well and that his incident was a fee to Limerick Not KK.
Cody on a yellow should have been careful but did a stupid flick across the legs on Hannon. Silly to do on a yellow.
Nash chop was nasty in the 2nd half, he angled the hurley to strike at the bottom, this can break bone, nasty. Id have red carded him for this but its so hard to see in real time.
WOD ( great player) looked bemused when Owen gave him a yellow for presistent striking with hurley. WOD does this every game And will take his yellows every game, not a bother to him.
Lim & KK are masters at this tactical fouling and in fairness to Owens he blow for fees. I have no issues with this.
