We are really seeing something special with this Cork Ladies Football Team.
Their dominance of the game since 2005 is amazing - Here's the roll of honour :-
Kerry - 11 Titles - 1976, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1993
Cork - 6 Titles - 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011
Waterford - 5 Titles - 1991, 1992, 1994, 1995, 1998
Mayo - 4 Titles - 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003
Tipp - 3 Titles - 1974, 1975, 1980
Monaghan - 2 Titles - 1996, 1997
Offaly - 2 Titles - 1979, 1981
And then - Laois, Cavan, Rocommon, Dublin & Galway with 1 title each.
The trend has been that counties dominate for a while and then fade.
Kerry were the dominant force from '82 to '93 (10 titles) but haven't been in a final since '93.
Kerry or Cork have never lost a Final so something will have to give today.
Cork had never been in a final until 2005 but have won them all since then except 2010 when Tyrone beat them in a massive upset.
Cork are 1/10 massive favourites to win - Rena Buckley and Breige Corkery played in the Camogie Final too, this year.
Cork are obviously one of the greatest teams of all time and have exceptional players in Corkery, Buckley, Juliet Murphy, Nollaig Cleary & Valerie Mulcahy.
It's a classic Cork V Kerry pairing and promises to be another great day for Cork Ladies Football.
