Harsh on Dublin, they have a few to come back too

Does this mean that Cork aren’t back at all?

Bump

Dublin are by far the better team tonight but I’d be surprised if they were anywhere near any of the bigger teams come the Summer.

should we charge on to Kilkenny -3 then as Clare cdnt beat the langers last wk??!

Where are clare based on this? Them and cork are way back when it comes to the roughousing

High ball into Cork full back line and they are being cleaned out.

Stick hurling is dead in Cork.

Cork backs making ryano look like an all star

Last Dublin score. 2 Dublin players contest the high ball 30 yards from Cork goal. No Cork player jumps to contest and Dublin player slots over the bar. Shocking stuff.

Clare are better than both these teams, but seem to be well off where they need to be hurling-wise at the moment. That will sharpen up given time, but you’re right in relation to the physical stakes. Too often outmuscled in the middle third and dominated in the air. Think Moloney & O’Connor are trying to find the players to rectify that.

Great score from Bennett, that was nice.

Vindication for Ger Cunningham

Cork lads standing off all over the pitch, shocking stuff.

It’s going to be hard for Frank to shift all those €6,500 ten year tickets in his new stadium.

Cork have given up.

how is Donal Burke playing? Played midfield for the Dublin minor @ Under 16 and just out of minor now

Highly rated in Dublin

Very well indeed.

He’s been ballin’

Looks decent, scored a good few but you have to take into the account that there probably isn’t a team who leave their full-back line so open as Cork.
