Is it worth the paper it was written on?

526

No Mossie?? Ffs thatā€™s a joke. Cark are there for the taking if Waterford ATTACK early. The lay off and croke park are factors in Waterfords favour but can only be maximised by a good fast start.
McGrath will have missed a trick if he sticks to the system as this will allow Cork a foothold

I think this Cork team have come a year to soon,

Waterford will choke them out of itā€¦and hit points from long distance.

Iā€™ll hold my hands up if Iā€™m completly wrong, but I do see the Deise prevailing on Sunday.

529

I still think people over rate cork

There might be no next year,
Cork beat Waterford handily without playing particularly well at all, I donā€™t think Waterford can cope any better on Sunday but if they win Iā€™ll give them their due, itā€™s only a game of hurling and the Cork lads have given plenty of joy this year

Ye only won by 3 or 4 and Waterford should have got a penalty?

532

We all know Cork are coming pal,

I didnt see ye going this far this year being honest at the start of the year especially when we bate ye in the Pairc in the league QF.

Cork have an unreal minor and u17 team and plenty of talent below that comingā€¦I think Waterford will win on Sunday though.

533

Thanks for holding up your hands. Make sure & send us a photo.

5 points is a handy win, Waterford should have had 14 men before that penalty but thatā€™s neither here nor there, the better team won.

535

Good one kid.

536

I dunno, I felt that Cork were clearly deserving winners but it matters fuck all now either way, Iā€™m quite confident anyway.

Beating a team twice in the championship isnt an easy task.

541

The C-Orcs are going to get a trimming here.

ye were 100 percent but it was flat by Waterford
