Club Championships 2019

These club fixtures will be interesting in terms of finding out who can make the step up to the inter-county panel

I’m not sure will RTE manager Declan McBennett have seen too much here in the way of talent, to be honest

Evanne and Des are competent but don’t have the star quality needed

Meyler and the Sarsfields man I don’t recognise are very much club standard analysts only

Fagan O’Dowd’s beloved Scoil Ui Conaill have reached the Senior A hurling ranks in Dublin which would not have foreseen by many

Great stuff

Me Da was an O’Connell’s man

I’d be happy if they find a way to have Evanne on Telly

Shocking conditions and the games are live on RTÉ. You do the math

Sweeney should have walked there, forearm to the helmet

Kieran “fraggy” Murphy current cork selector

Colm Lyons is a brutal referee.

That was fair harmless to get a red

Hurling is fucked if that was a yellow.

These county quarter-finals and the like did not work out well for Eir a couple of years back

The standard and atmosphere is so glaringly shit following off the back of the All-Ireland finals

I’m surprised RTE have taken a punt on devoting 3 hours and 45 minutes on a Saturday evening to this

I can understand why they might want to broadcast an odd county final or provincial club championship matches, but this stuff is too niche

And they’ve picked a right turkey to start with here

Pissing rain and a one sided game with eight men and a dog in attendance

One of the teams isn’t even a club

Very wet rain falling now

And again :roll_eyes:

Reffing in the Cork county championship in a nutshell there.

Two 2nd yellows for relatively harmless challenges.

Glenn Hoddle type pass there by one of the red and whites, if Glenn Hoddle played hurling

Sars best hope here now is the game to be abandoned due to inclement weather.

Cork hurling is in the doldrums

Waching this, I have the theme music from that Irish Paint Magic series involuntarily playing in my head

The programme with the Corkman saying “sit down there, Mr. Cloud”

“Ireland, oh Ireland…”

Great achievement. Came up from Junior 3 if I recall correctly.

they were well down the ranks anyway. were scoil ever senior in hurling in times past?
