There is something about Cork this year alright. Itâs like an attitude change or something, canât put my finger on it.
The Rock isnât running their training drills anymore.
Like awarded for crack Wexford outfit reference. A nice twist on the usual crack Eastern European outfit references here.
Sure once you cross the Shannon youâre in Eastern Europe
They keep winning, what am I to do
Ultimate poacher Seanie
Surprised to see Conor Fogarty still starting midfield for Kilkenny under the new management.
Cork will do well to get any result in Munster with performances like the ones against Westmeath and Wexford.
Corkness or cliste as Donal O Grady kept calling it.
I may have mentioned this yesterday but the corkness is off the charts for this time of year
That was fairly septic viewing.
Outside of Power and Tommy OâConnell, mot much to be ecstatic about after that. Tommy in particular looks to be in the driving seat to start either at half-back or midfield.
Harnedy made a massive difference.
Lee Chin best on the pitch by a distance.
Them poor kids must have no internet or something
Clare - Galway appears to have been an awful game. Bit surprised by that.
Itâll be Limerick, Tipp and Cork the 3 out of Munster and Kilkenny, Galway and Wexford out of Leinster. Tipp to deny Limerick in AI final. Jason Forde HOTY.
Youâre writing off Clare who, in fairness to them, matched Limerick in a lot of respects last year?
It should be an interesting Munster campaign. Iâd be shocked if Forde wins HOTY though⌠weâve all seen him flying in the league before.
Interesting read in yesterdayâs Examiner that 3 of Waterfordâs big names including Gleeson were quitting if Cahill had stayed on as manager.
Beautiful ball player Forde is. Best in the country for me.
Clare are a weird one. Theyâve a decent spine and theyâll match teams for effort and physicality. Theyâll still need Kelly to do untold and youâd have to wonder how much longer can he do it for. Duggan seems to have forgotten how to hurl during his sabbatical. I donât rate Aidan McCarthy like some pundits and the like have been. And youâre then relying on the likes of Reidy and a few of the small and fast new lads coming in to hit the ground running.
