the day heās fully right is the day heāll get an all star this year.
I thought he was superb. The missed frees could have just been nerves rather than an injury. He certainly didnāt seem to be minding it.
One of them came from a slip while striking.
Agree.
Cork pushed on again and looked to have won it.
Just credit to Tipperary more than anything.
Brendan Maher in the HB line made a huge difference.
The young scarra lad made one little mistake at the end
after a fine game and but for it Cork win that game.
Some great potential battles this weekend
Corkās three FFs v Limerickās FBs will all be great battles.
Cian Lynch and Fitzgibbon
Coleman and Hegarty.
Who goes on Gillane? I think Joyce and Ellis can be got at.
I am not knocking the boy at all. apologies.
He was brilliant. Just something in body language that said he was a little uncomfortable
or something.
Heās a star.
the most interesting thing for me is what will Cark do with Flanagan. He doesnāt spend a minute inside. Will they leave Cahalane loose or will they put Cahalane on Gillane and let one of the other lads follow Flanagan out the field?
I think we might see Flanagan play a bit more closer to goal this weekend, while still spending some time outside.
You may be right. If they were looking at Tippās second half the last day Iād say Flanagan may be pushed right up for the puckouts. Itād be madness to leave them a spare man in the full back line
Joyce is a massive issue. Not good enough.
Ellis was perfect in the covering centre back role. Not suited to the swashbuckling role
Heard Tim OāMahoney was locked up the other night in Limerick
Locked up?
End of exams carry on?
I wouldnāt let SOD loose. He can deliver good ball.
If I were Limerick I would aim for DC loose
he was loose against tipp the last day and actually hurled it quite wellā¦ Iād disagree with you on SOD. Blinding athlete but I think his hurling isnāt the best. Iād love to see a fully fit Casey go in on him. Itād be a spectacle.
Beat the shit out of some lad who stole his bird.
Dumped him Sunday night and told him she was with some lad he knew.
A very good source but ypu know with these things, still could be legs
The scarra lad can run.
Great pace all over the Cork team.
OāDonovan will have to sit on Fitzgibbon, Lynch wouldnt have the pace for him.
Kearney will be a tough test for Lynch. Lynch is still only learning at midfield at senior level.
Kearney pops up everywhere.
His hurling is ok ish but will improve. His brain and his coolness is his 2nd best assets though (after that power)
I see him every Friday in Starbucks. He is a fucking beast, canāt believe he can run so quick
Bringing Flanagan out only works if the man goes with hin, leaving loads of space inside. Thatās why I prefer him starting inside and making the run out the field when we have possession in our half-back line or midfield. In that instance, the man has to go with him and it opens up a couple of options for our player.
Movement is absolutely key.
Stand tickets sold out.
Just terrace left.
Ya Kearney while nippy doesnāt have blinding seed, is not strong and is small. He can read a game very well though. His positioning is immense.
The use of kearney is one of the real credits to the his management.
I donāt actually know the Limerick lads individually that weāll. Alot of similar players but itās just their collective that I like.
A loss too might do them no harm.
Thing is about this game, itās not beyond possible these teams meet 3 times this year. And I think we find out Saturday which way all 3 will go by whoever wins.
The styles are contrasting and matches like this tend to carry over. One style suited to beating another
I think the winners tomorrow night win anymore games between the 2.
If Limerick have the mobility for cork then I think they win. Thatās the main question. Will they enjoy playing from the sidelines. Cork play really wide
against Tipp he spent hardly any time inside that I can remember. Maybe his role will change for this one.
Good summation.
