Weāve also only lost once to them, in a Munster Round Robin Round 1 game, where we later went on to piss said Munster Final.
Saying weāve never beaten them in 70 mins is a good one, as if beating them in 100 minutes or whatever it was lessens the importance of the victory. We also drew with them in their own back yard having played the game a man down for the majority of it.
We were caught on the hop in that round Robin game. The semi victory was significant considering how far ahead cork were with 15 mins left and we blew them away in ET. That draw in PUC was a great marker as you said we played with 14 en for a majority of the match and essentially got us into the Qualifiers
Limerick arenāt really rated as champion side down here as we would fancy beating ye and we well know we are no great shakes. We walked all over ye in 19 and we definitely let 18 slip. Cork would play Limerick before KK,Tipp,Galway. Limerick seem to struggle with Corkās innate tradition and craft in a way a ordinary enough KK side never would.
I couldnt tell you when Galway last lost to Cork at any level. Psychologically they have zero fear of the Blood and Bandage and dont underperform against us. The same cant be said for certain other counties.
