Cork Minor Hurling 2024

[iluvhurling]

A good win for Cork and Meyler and co will obviously be delighted. And while things looked better than the Tipp game you have to consider the opposition. In that regard, Limerick had a couple of lads who just weren't up to this level. In particular there were 2 green shirts in the middle third who looked like junior hurlers (I know I know .....16 years olds can't play junior but you get my point). One lad got turned over 6 times in the first half. He was very game but awfully limited. Surprised the famed Limerick academy hadn't weeded them out by now. Or maybe they're the best they have and there's hope for every other county going forward. Or maybe The Dow hasn't a clue.

I wouldn't fear Tipp when we meet again

Cork have ground to make up. That was a very very comfortable 4 points win for Tipp last week.

This is the kind of Limerick player who'll be turned into an all star in 5 years time.

And that is where Cork are failing big time. The next 5 years.

Maybe 5 years ago but the well seems to have run dry lately, they will soon be back to one all ireland every few decades

It wouldn’t be the first time a Limerick side although beaten by Cork went on to produce more hurlers capable of winning an All Ireland senior?

Cork City and West Cork defeated today whereas North Cork won and East Cork drew.

East Cork drawing with Tipps 2nd team is a fair achievement.
