Kilkenny Hurling

It’s not a bad team all round to be honest. Difficult to know how it’ll go for Hogan. That whole half back line / midfield is interchangeable so god knows how they’ll line out.

Backs look strong enough, although Paul Murphy has been a bit of a weakness at times this year

No idea, I’m well out of the loop. CC @iron_mike 's up that country.

Cody did similar against Limerick last year, Hogan in from the start and went centre forward and they and pushed TJ Reid into the full forward line for the first twenty mins. They tried their level best to bury limerick with goals then for that twenty. I’d expect them to try something along those lines again tomorrow.

Cody knows Cork have them over the seventy so he’ll be going all in to put doubts in their heads early. Expect a hail of ball into Kk full forward line in the first twenty mins. If Cork can weather that they’ll win.

Corks full back line is their Achilles heal though, KK will look to exploit it.

Corks defense is their achilles.

It is but Kilkenny’s is far from waterproof either.

This Kilkenny team don’t have the players to blitz teams, they’ll fight like dogs with anyone but nothing will be guaranteed until the final whistle is blown

It’ll be close,if KK hold Cork forwards to 1/2 goals they’ve a fighting chance if not I reckon REBELS should have enough

When was the last time Cork scored more than 2 goals in Championship?

I think Kilkenny would be wanting to keep them to 1 at an absolute max.

I’d say they’d be aiming at keeping them to 0 goals honestly.

Do teams often score more than 2 goals in championship mate? Only Tipp have done so in Munster this year.

Cork never score more than 2 goals. Their forwards prefer taking the handy point to get their name on the scoreboard. Limerick and Tipp will always go for goals when there is a quarter chance of one. Cork lack that ruthless streak

That lads comment seems to be gone?
A quality mole on the last game.

That won’t happen

Watch and learn

No, they don’t. I think if Cork score 2 goals, it’s very unlikely that they will lose. Cork are a very good pointscoring team and I think it’s Kilkenny that will need the goals.
