[QUOTE="UpCork123, post: 6999599, member: 40761"] Happy with that performance on Sunday. The level of work rate, intensity, tackling and physicality was something I have not seen from this team before. There was also a refreshing level of bite and dare I say bit of filth about them. We'll need that in 6 weeks time. Tactically I was also impressed. One of Barrett or Lehane were always in close proximity of Hannon in that first half which really disrupted Limerick. Both players exemplified Cork's attitude on Sunday. In April, having a player very close to Hannon is something Cork will have to do as I think he is a player who can be rattled if not given the space to cover ground and sweep albeit he is still a fantastic centre back. Hannon really makes them tick working the ball out and finding their attackers. This is something we will have to limit again which I think we can do. Fantastic to see Darragh Fitz back to his best. A Rolls Royce of a hurler and crucial to have him in full flow for championship. Great to see good form too from Coleman, Tim, Kingston, (I was not too disappointed with his red card) O'Donoghue and Niall O'Leary who are really turning into leaders of this group. Ciarán Joyce was supreme and will easily slot into the team either at half back or midfield. Management may keep him at half back for April as I think we need Millerick covering Lynch from midfield if Coleman is centre back, which it seems he is almost certain to be. A good day at the office, but let's be real, Limerick were shocking. It's worth reminding how important Nickie Quaid is to that team as Hennessy's puckouts were a disaster for them. For next week, I'd give Joyce a rest due to his Fresher's semi final on Wednesday. O'Leary deserves another run out at fullback. I'd rotate a few of the forwards to have a look at them. Collins O'Donoghue, O'Leary, O'Leary-Hayes O'Mahony, Coleman, Downey Millerick, Fitzgibbon Harnedy, Barrett, Twomey O'Connor, Connolly, Horgan [/QUOTE]
