They lost Mahony and Gleeson before the thrown in, Bourke in the first few minutes, Connors and Brick at half time, Moran a few minutes into the second half and two Bennettâs gone traveling - no team could cope with losses like that
Being fair pal, Waterford have been very close to Tipp, Galway and KK over the last 4 years.
You predicted Cork to beat Waterford in last years semi final very bullishly and you were badly wrong.
@Fagan_ODowd revealed here months back that Waterford were fucked this year and the Derek McGrath regime had run its course. Havenât met anyone in Waterford of late who knows anything about hurling that has a different view.
Very good question! Anyone? Was filthy btw even if Kelly is a prick,was more of a frontal charge Kelly went down like he was shot.
Limerick beat a poor Tipp team last weekend, itâll be a long summer yet
I honestly donât think so
Waterford have beat no one.
He was the third man in and gave him a shot of a shoulder, Kelly did his best Ramos impression thereafter
I was hardly badly wrong, the game turned on a silly sending off
Yet
He did but it was brain dead from such an experienced player.
When is Gleeson back? Was De Burca badly injured?
It was completely brain dead and refs came out a few weeks ago saying that theyâll be clamping down on the third man in especially when Waterford were under pressure on the day, absolutely foolish out of him
Looks like Bourkeâs collar bone is gone, word Iâm hearing Gleeson and Mahony wonât make next week either but possibly the week after
Thatâs a disaster. Donât think Waterford have the panel to absorb those losses.
Do or die next week.
I donât think any panel could absorb losses like that
You predicted Cork would beat Waterford easily. Waterford won by 11 points. Thatâs as badly wrong as you can get with a prediction.
Waterford also lost Coughlan and Dara Fives to injury too today
Derek McGrath really should walked after last year. Easier said than done after losing a final, but it was crying out for a change of voice after 4 years. Maurice may be back in the fold for the moment, but a very unusual state of affairs for 3 of the 20 players who saw action in an All Ireland Final to opt off the panel a few months later.
Fair enough mate, I may have gotten that wrong but I still think it was a 50/50 without the sending off,
But I got this one right
