Based on that performance galway should be 1/10
Based on Galway in the Leinster final Cork should be heavy favs. So I guess itâs a toss up. With the better recent form on Corks side
Jamesie OâConnor last night on Newstalk said Cork will win a shootout, because Cork are the better hurlers
He said Cork would win IF it was a shootout,
I believe he went for Galway
People just back a thoroughbred. Galway are like that horse they made the film about.
Yeah but hes not writing Cork off. I doubt anyone is. In the pickem, you pick a team to win. It doesnt mean you are simply writing off the other team. Its a coin toss of a game, either could win. I think Galway are the better team but they havent shown they are capable of it yet this year. So unless they get their form together, they will likely lose. Im giving them the benefit of the doubt by picking them that when it comes to the crunch theyll find their form. But thats a big if.
You need to learn how to play the poor mouth with your team from @Locke and the Kilkenny boys. Experts at it.
Im going with 2 draws and cork and wexford to emerge afterwards. Cork have a different level that they constantly fail to meet except when the shackles are off and its a free shot, ET will be that nothing to lose go out and play. Wexford will hang in for the draw and a combination of Clare shitting the bed and fatigue (mentally after MF and physically) will allow Wexford to sneak in a winning point in ET, despite Clare being the better team on the day. Throwing 20 quid on 2 draws anyway
Why on earth do you think Clare are âshitting the bedâ?
Theyâve been unafraid to rest TK in other games, and played equally well. They have a strong squad. Theyâve had two weeks rest. They improved again against Limerick, and thereâs not been a peep.out of them all season. Heads down and get on with it. I doubt they wasted much energy on the appeal, just jumped on with Galway. Why people are expecting them to be flat or exhausted is strange. Joe Canning seems to have a telephone book full of excuses for falling flat on the day. Kk never use them, nor do Limerick or Clare. It seems that Galway seem to have lacked an ability to just go out and hurl. Too many middle management laptop heads.
Clare???
Youâre confusing the playing squad with the general public, but youâre easily confused
They will collapse in ET is my prediction, better team and expectation will tighten them up. Câmere you can qoute that when they prove me wrong
Youâll have to live and die by your selections in the pickem and not be hedging. Iâve gotten a few wrong meself
My word Iâve had some response to that post last night,
And poor mouthing is very boring, Iâd fancy Cork against anybody but Limerick, theyâre very unreliable and inconsistent but on their day theyâll best the rest
If Christy Ring himself was posting on TFK he wouldnât garner as much attention as you do when you talk hurling
The one Tayto was riding around on?
Mr Ed

Throw in the ball and let them hurl away. No more about it.
Must be all my county medals
I must say im really looking forward to Saturday. Big crowd, lovely weatherâŚpotentially 2 cracking games, hurling is the real winner here ladsđ
Another flatty flip flop.
