I will reiterate what I said about Cunningham after the Munster final when I saw him in the flesh, he wonât do at senior level. His hurling is way too slow and every wing back at senior is at least as athletic as he is.
I thought the Cork team made hard work of what should have been a cake walk. They had better players all over the field against a much younger and less developed team physically
Is that unfortunate young Egan fellow that got the broken ribs today sitting the Leaving Cert?
No.
Lads worried Egan might miss his leaving and he was playing sigerson this year. Thatâs the level of understanding the anti split season zealots have of the game
The Preston/North London/Waterford/Carlow take your pick royalist caught out badly again.
A callous disregard of the welfare of 18 years olds sending out such a large cohort of Leaving Cert students to hurl in an All Ireland Final just three days before the start of the exams. Itâll be all grand for the split season zealots until thereâs litigation when a young fellow canât take his place at the desk for Leaving Cert English Exam on the Wednesday.
Hang on did the Offaly manager think there was black cards in U-20?
Cork are always dislikeable MBB. Its in their DNA.
Thatâs marginally footix territory ChairmanâŚtread carefully.
When is the Carlow club hurling championship kicking off?
He picked up Niland when he played inside. In fairness Niland flashes a couple of times in the first half and it was an even enough contest. They switched Niland out to centre forward early in the second half and Hegarty despite being on a yellow managed him handily enough I thought. It was a poor move as it allowed Gunning to thunder into it and do a ball of covering and tidying up
Iâm almost sorry I didnât watch that match now, really enjoyed the âwonât somebody think of the childrenâ posts 
Well worth the watch back. Cork played some great hurling. And worth a look at screeney
You missed box office
Same format as last year in Carlow, split season within a split season, hurling championship first and then football championship.
Carlow are still in the hunt for the Liam McCarthy Cup so domestic fare wonât be getting underway until that campaign is over. Next up is Dublin in Netwatch Dr Cullen Park on 17 June. Who knows after that.
Carlow footballers have also advanced to the next stage of the Tailtean Cup.
Cork 1- 10 : 0- 8 Dublin, HT in the minor football semi-final.
Cork well on top, but sloppy turnovers at the end of the half gifted Dublin 2 important points.
Quarter final no?
2 points in it now. Quarter final yeah.
Yup, QF.
