Calling @Corksfinedtboy !!

[pulpfiction]

Too be fair we were delusional for years too

[balbec]

We were. And we still shit ourselves when the lads play the ball out short. Well I do anyway.

The one thing Mike Casey was culpable for this afternoon, he was very good though.

[Fat_Pox]

The most disappointing thing about Cork is that after their 3rd hammering on the big stage in 9 months is that they didn’t even have anyone to lower the cutting bar with a bit of filth.

[YellowBib]

We’ll still bate Tipp and Clare.

[anon76546466]

Clare will come out of Munster

[glasagusban]

Ye quite possibly will but no more than that and I don’t know how the management can stay looking at it and not see it.

I will hold my hand up that I had forgotten how good he is. He was absolutely class today.

Did not put a foot wrong. Credit to him for getting back after such bad luck with injuries.

Based on what? That’s half yere problem right there. Yere making assumptions based on making a league final.

Kingston is a decent guy but I don’t think he really knows what he’s doing. The same mistakes made again and again.

Lehane is first choice but then is dropped, then brought back in as starter, then taken off as soon as anything goes wrong.

Making Coleman captain, a guy who isn’t dominant enough to play centre back.

Persisting with options in the full back line who never were up to it, aren’t up to it and never will be up to it.

Not being big enough to ever drop or take off the king of loose ball hurling in Fitzgibbon.

@fenwaypark

He is not lacking aggression. He is an excellent half back imho. He is very similar to Diarmuid Byrnes.

For a bit of the game today I decided to follow Fitzgibbon when he came into shot. He is a disgrace when opposition have the ball. Has he ever been dropped?

I called this out last December and a certain Cork poster took grave offence at my reference to his embarrassing performance in last years AI. It’s just a fact he’s at sea there.

[fenwaypark]

The stats dont lie. They can tell how far these lads have run, tackles won etc., yet they keep selecting them

[fenwaypark]

He cant defend as a 6 and offers nothing from attacking perspective as a 6 either.

[Bod95]

To be fair he’s a good hurler and definitely well worth his place but he’s no captain or a centre back

[the_man_himself]

I feel sorry for Coleman. The management team are making him play in an utterly ludicrous way

[fenwaypark]

Exactly. He started as a half back and teams soon realised that he is terrible under high ball and started targeting him. Not physical enough for midfield. We have too many ‘nice hurlers’.

[ScorpioLyons]

His own club dont even play him centre back. And neither did UCC when he was there. Speaks volumes.
