Cork/Kilkenny All-Ireland Hurling Semi-Final

I’d say turenne is fine and pissed off considering this is the first cork game of the year he has decided to go to…no doubt he will make out that Aisake has Hickey in all kinds of trouble

will he recognise him in real life seeing he wont have canning to point out who he is with the help of the tv?

Great to see Richie Power destroying that awful cunt of a man Cadogan

5 points in 35mins of hurling is scandelous fare altogether

I hope Tommy Walsh gets sent off at some stage. It’d make my week.

:clap:

Fucking hell that was some half from kilkeny. First goal wa pure class from Fennelly winning the ball onwards. Different class altogether.

Cork just can’t match Kilkenny for intensity. Getting beaten up everywhere on the field. Time for new blood.

Kilkenny are head and shoulders above Cork alright but I’d say they are only in third gear, Cork’s backs are trying manfully but the rest of their team are pitiful…Niall Mac and Naughton have got on some loose ball but the rest of their forwards and Kenny haven’t been in the game

Corks touch is shockingly poor. fumbling an awful lot of ball. Naughton has a terrible habit of putting the hurl to the ball instead of catching it straight in his hand. against other teams he might get away with it, but the extra time he is taking it to do it today means he is under pressure straight away once he actually has posession in his hand.

in saying all that, it would make fook all difference. KK are more than a class ahead of cork

Where are the lads who were saying all week that Cork would keep them to a low enough score?

not posting coz they need to pretend they are actually at the game.

I was thinking the same about Naughton alright. Awful bad habit. On the touch thing though Kilkenny have just worn them out. If you’re taking those kind of hits for the first twenty minutes of a match you’ll be so fucked your touch is bound to suffer. Cork just can’t take it. Not anymore anyway.

I’d say KK will raise it again in the 2nd half and can see them picking off at least 2 more goals. Cork have nothing and KK could well win by 30+ points.
Corks only prayer of that not happening is if Cody tells them to save something for the final

The hallmark of a windy hurler…Pa Bourke of Tipp has a fierce habit of doing this along with every smith o brien’s forward

Will it be worse than the 2008 final???

I am going to make a bold statement and I stand by it 100%

Richie Power is a far better hurler/full forward than Joe Canning

It’s up to themselves. They’d the battle won after 20 minutes. They can decide now how much they want to win the match by.

Thats actually something Pa has gotten out of him this year. seems more confident in catching it now.

I’d hope so as he certainly has the talent, very infuriating trait in a player
