You’re a scumbag

Very sensitive, aren’t you Kev? And I only paraphrasing Paul Kimmage, who I’m pretty sure you’re a great admirer of.

No you were trying to be funny and you are now hiding behind something somebody else said.

A weak scumbag.

Being a weak scumbag is in his genes. It’s due to the Irish race lacking real genetic diversity, caused by being an island nation.

Hey, Kev, I’ll fight you at a neutral venue if you think I’m such a weak scumbag. How about the North Circular Road gate of the Phoenix Park at midday the next time Cork are playing in Croke Park?

If they are to persist with this short puck out they have to try run it or pick out a link man in the middle. Every time Tipp launched an aimless ball down on top of KK, not only was it easily dealt with, but it galvanised the rest of the team as the full backs came charging out with the ball time and again (Missed most of the Waterford game so i’ll refer back to this). This was something I was kind of getting at with Gardiner, even tho I agree he has had his day, he was well able to take a score from distance or deliver the right ball. You can talk about the sending off, but Cork’s wastefulness from this platform, and even gifting us a score late on from here, was one of the main factors in why they lost. At times, the movement was great coming up the field, but at others it was naive and sloppy whick KK will lap up all day.

Lehane has to be played out the field also. A much better operator when he is allowed to drift and has the space to operate.

Sid, you are a alcoholic mess. Sort that out first, then call into one of the fitness threads and I’ll give you a leg up.

I just watched the post match discussion there for the first time. Ger Lough pretty much stuck it to the Cork players and said to date they have shown no bottle and questioned, like Tipp, whether they have any at all. I believe Tom Ryan called this last year also when he called them bottlers (Can someone dig out the article?). Do this team lack fight? I’d love to see them go on and beat KK but KK will murder them when it comes to physicality and winning dirty ball.

I don’t think this Cork team lack fight.I just that the current Cork team are a pale shadow of past Cork teams.As for Ger i don’t think he has forgiven JBM for finishing his Clare team off in 1999.I think he also holds a grudge towards JBM over those beatings we gave Clare in those two munster finals in the 70’s!

Gerlock spot on in his analysis as usual, I love the way he really gets up the noses of Tipperary and Cork people with his no nonsense home truths

@Horsebox

I don’t think they are poor Waterford or Tipp teams and I think they would both beat Cork. I think with this Cork team and their lack of physicality, they would be least suited to put it up to Kilkenny.

Waterford are an average team besides we kicked their buts in last years championship and we would have beaten them this year as well if we played them especially with John Mullane retired.Those Waterford forwards are useless.

I think Ger seems to have conveniently forgotten that he made a mess out of the Galway job after promising that he’d deliver them an all ireland within two years!

@Horsebox

No. I just don’t think they have 20 top class hurlers at the moment. Saying teams have no bottle is as big an insult as you can throw at a team and I think that Cork showed against Clare that they have bottle but showed against Limerick that they don’t have the panel of players to challenge for the top prizes at the moment.

I don’t like agreeing with Horsebox but he’s kind of spot on here!

[Beautiful_City]

@caoimhaoin

No. I think Gardiner was struggling for a couple of years. He had become very poor on the turn.

Horse shit!

[Tassotti]

Clare are fucking rubbish, the wexford camoige team would beaten them the day Cork beat them, Cork and Clare are the worst teams in Munster, neither of them have the bottle

was it around this time 2 years ago that SLR and chewy louie announced the cunt was dead over on AFR?
