Why did Ballinhassig keep putting them in goal?
All played at different age groups.
Well, yes but why would you keep putting your most talented players in goal?
No idea. They had a v recent cork sub keeper as well martin coleman who is only mid 30s
Their old man was a keeper as well

Keeper is just as important as any other position, in many ways more. Some of the brothers have played outfield on occasion.
Because that’s where they are best positioned.
Ballinhassig would be very strong in general and would have plenty better outfield players.

Hardly “very strong” considering they’re intermediate. Goalkeeper is a specialist position and you don’t need three lads from a very talented family to be goalkeepers when two of them could be used outfield
There is years betweenany of the brothers.
It also gives them the best chance of playing county.
I am not sure what you are not getting about it. They cannot plan their 1st team 12-15 years in advance. The fact you cannot break it down is mental
And it’s a very strong club. They were senior very recently. They now have 2 Intermediate teams and 4 adult teams. Play alot of Premier 2 underage.
If they were playing senior now they would still be up under present relegation set up . They lost 2 relegation games by 1 point 2-3 years ago. And Premier Int. is very strong in Cork.
It’s not Tipp where everybody almost plays senior

Knocknagree are All Ireland Champions
Delight for them. Great place. Great people.
The goalie scored a goal too from a 45
They play great football and are very young.
Nice bet to win Intermediate

Will be a senior team in 4 or 5 years. Huge talent coming through
John fintan is a quare hawk. 2 all ireland clubs with two different teams (in 2 different counties!)
Serious operator.
When you consider some of the langers involved with Cork teams it makes all the more bizarre he is ignored all the time.
Mind you i’d say he does not need it either
Not the most straightforward character.
Hed have loved the top job in the past Id say. Just wouldnt be political enough to play ball with co board
