Cork v Waterford - All Ireland Hurling Semi-Final 2'17

Do waterford use squad numbers or have they retired the no 5?

I think we were only 82% Joe tbh

Squad numbers for the past 3 years

Knew they did before alright. Interesting approach not sure what benefit it serves

Aussie gets to wear 6 all the time

Ah the O driscoll clause

Jesus mate, weā€™ll have a right couple of days with insecure lads trying to wind us up over an accident of birth :joy:

are you heading up?

Well capable of fucking it up yet. County Board have completely taken back selecting managers and selectors.
Clubs are really unhappy.
Development squads are a mess.

Sheer weiggt of numbers and a particularly good bunch as you mention will keep Cork in the mix, but as for maximising it. No chance.

If they donā€™t win this one thwy could be still 4-5 years away

The sheer strength of numbers is a huge advamtage.

Cork as a hurling county are very close this yearā€¦but when those teenage lads come through with the tradition ye haveā€¦its not good for the rest of usā€¦

Sunday is massive for Cork hurling but its not judgement day for ye by any meansā€¦far more pressure on McGrath and his systems.

Time will tellā€¦hope its a cracking game.

I donā€™t know if Kieran Bennett will actually start, itā€™s an interesting call. Someone who has never played Championship beforeā€¦ a solid, if unspectacular full-back at underage.

I suppose if they play training matches, somebody has to play sweeper on the ā€˜otherā€™ team, maybe it has been Bennett. Very hard to know how heā€™ll go, I canā€™t even remember him starting that many League games. Canā€™t see his use of the ball being as good as De BĆŗrcaā€™s. A tough fucker though.
