Reported Sweetnam has made the switch.Very hard to be positive about Cork hurling at the moment.
Sex change? A bit drastic but each to their own.
That Munster rugby shower again. He’ll be a big loss, was excellent this year. Cork lads must be fuming over this.

Nah we’re alright. He’ll be no great loss.
He will be a loss allright. He was a 19 year old who got significant gametime this year and played in an All Ireland Semi Final.
really good post there
In what way would you say the signifignce of the gametime is relevant in evaluating the overall sense of loss felt?
In his previous spell when JBM gave a 19 year old gametime, that 19 year old went on to be important for Cork
Sean Og, Joe Deane, Ben O’Connor, Neil Ronan, Diarmuid O’Sullivan to name a few
Cork had a load of very talented 19 year olds coming through back then off successful underage teams some of which JBM managed himself. A talented 19 year old that can cut it at senor inter county level is far more scarce in cork now which makes Sweetnam’s loss all the greater.
A kanturk man informed me at the weekend Aidan Walsh despite carrying an injury and not playing full games has played a major role in getting Kanturk to the cork intermediate hurling final. My source tells me that he has scored 4 sideline cuts over the course of the quarter final and semi final. I assume the info is correct. The cork lads on here might be able to comment
…comment on what? I can’t imagine Aidan Walsh not playing an important part in getting his club to an Intermediate A final.
cheers for that, but based on the fact that the team that won the AI in 99 was based on the minor / 21 sides from 94-98 of course there were fucking 19 years olds tried in the team
What features of these 19 year olds would you most focus on in terms of their developement?
.
what an atrociously bad post
Is he correct with his facts? did he score all them sideline cuts!?
The man that told me reckoned he was playing great hurling altogether.
No need to jump down me throat - Not all star inter county men perform to the same very high levels for their clubs. good luck to walsh and kanturk if he is turning on the style for them
It’s been well documented on here the pressure the lad has to endure just by turning up to tog out. Discussing him is a sensitive topic so tread carefully.
I’m not jumping down your throat, but it would be bizarre if a player of Aidan Walsh’s quality wasn’t starring in what is a glorified Junior championship. And yes, he is excellent at sideline cuts.
:lol:
I thought they had murdered all the protestants in Cork?
he must be some areshole to be talented at two shitty sports
According to Caul Pollins he’ll be lining out beside ROG, Paul and Dougie soon, have things got that bad in munster?
Try excelling at about 6 sports mate.
