Itāll be interesting how Cork line out in the forwards without Walsh.
Will they just slot in Lehane or Kingston, or will they try and replace him with a similar style player? Iām not sure who they really have like him?
Or is the TOM to midfield option something theyāre seriously looking at with Fitzgibbon at 11 and freeing up Harnedy a bit?
Lehane is seriously out of formā¦
I greatly enjoyed your bullet points after reading the article. Heās not a fan of using one word when five will do.

And being successful underage can be a disadvantage. But Wexfordās success is based on underage success or something
Bandage:
That attitude shone through in the article for me. It was a real āsincere congratulations butā¦ā piece. It amuses me somewhat how people get so agitated by a seventh (7th) defender in any event. Other successful teams, including Kilkenny ones, often dropped their midfield and half forward line back to exploit the space left upfront. Negative bastards, hurling with 8 (eight) defenders.
Couldnāt agree more. Cody routinely used 13 in his own half, and 11 in his own 45 for swathes of his tenure. His luck was in having a pair of lethal forwards.
I canāt see the big issue with a sweeper, unless youāre still dicking around with one when youāre six points behind with a tailwind.
Laois were nearly relegated to the Ring last year FFS
Overhyped? You couldnāt underhype this.
And Iām sure you do fear for what Tipperary might do to Laois, you snide condescending prick

Iād be advising Laois to lower the blade against Tipp but that would be like teaching your granny to suck eggs.

@myboyblue where was it the Laois squad and Buff retired to after the game?
According to a radio interview this morning it was the local golf club
What are tipp on the handicap?
The Par 3 just a few hundred yards up the road from OMP. Itās a handy place to have the sit down meal and a few slow ones out of harms way.
They found Main Street after last night though. Unreal scenes around the place.

Thatās an absolute certainty in my opinion. Tipp will blow laois to bits.
Reading the indo there, said a laois club last won a Leinster senior club final 23 years ago. I canāt remember a laois club winning a Leinster hurling club?
Cork had 8 (eight) wides according to the stats in the Star.
