Cork hurling goalkeepers 2022

[Pooman]

Pooman

I thought he was poor v Galway. I thought he was good v Waterford and the point he scored in that game was class. Him having a good year in 2021 and saving Cork v Clare has to be taken into consideration where he was deservedly nominated for an All-star. The whole set-up by management on the goalkeeping issue worked against him and hasn't been like that for any other 'keeper in the so-called modern game. Donal Og had Rochford & Morrissey under him and later Coleman & Nash and they were all playing in goal. PC had his brother only under him and he wasn't even playing in goal. Every player wants to have the best brought out in him in training and that maintality had gone from.the management, this is more relevant to goalkeeping than any other position.

No question the whole brother thing was bizarre and the lack of competition didn't help him. Will be interesting to see what Pat Ryan decides.

I would've thought having your younger brother beat you and become starter was an even bigger motivation to keep your spot than someone else?

Don't think he was a threat to him at all and it was all a bit cosy.

It would have been quite the opposite

Open competition at the start of the year between Collins, Connolly and Davis for me. Agree with Pooman, all to rosey for Collins.

To me Collins is by a mile the best in the county. Nobody else even close to him. Under new management and probably new tactics I think he'll show that.
I'll make a prediction here now that within the next 3 seasons he'll win an All Star

Everyone makes mistakes and if we were to drop all those who makes mistakes we would soon be running out of players. Outside of Hickey Collins imho is the best.
