Serious marker laid down there. It wouldnât surprise me if Cork go Coast to Coast this year and win the lot
The spiel at the end about the hurling world rejoicing now because this opens up the upcoming year was OTT. Cork beat Limerick by about 15 points in the league last year and it had absolutely no bearing on championship. They should improve considerably now that Kingston has moved on though.
The celebrating from the Cork fans at the final whistle was very amusing. They were jumping around the place like it was an AIF.
The same lads hounded out Gerald McCarthy mate
Limerick had all the big guns out tonight, they are in big trouble
Cork wonât beat Kerry hurling with that performance. Kinnerkâs algorithm must have told Limerick not to tog out for the 2nd half.
Hego looked a pale shadow of himself.
Cork up the ante and Limerick had no answer
I thought he was excellent in the first half. Hannon too.
Corks best player OâFlynn going off with a nasty injury was unfortunate.
Heâs done
Youâd worry for some lads if Cork were to ever win a real match
Tis only a bit of pre season pulling and dragging, the league means less than nothing
They did the same when they beat KK in the league last year too. They were cock of the hoop below in Longboats that night
Youâd want to tell your own that⌠Epic scenes at full time.
They love their hurling in Cork
Cork beat them by 9 points last year in the league.
They really do. They know how to win AIs
This was huge for Cork. Lads were hugging each other around me.
They actually were
Sure youâd always get a bit excited when you go to a match, no harm
in that. Beating the all Ireland champions after being 8 down and all.
But itâll mean nothing in a few months
Though I fancy (before tonight) Cork to be Limericks closest challengers this year, beaten Munster and All Ireland finalists
