Barron, anyone but Bennet. Plenty on the team who can slot over frees. His style is terrible and will never be consistent. I don't know what he is persisted with. Will never win a championship with that type of freetaker. Will always be caught out on some day.

He's not doing too badly today I thought, 6 points today

Encouraging half, but should be more than 3 ahead on the run of play, lots of silly wides, but lots of good performances also. Well capable of winning this, but Conor Lehane looking dangerous fork Cork. Fingers crossed it will go well in the second half, need to tidy it up a small bit. Dessie starting to roll as well so hopefully he will get a few.

That was a stupid thing to do, that last point was a lovely move, and badly needed, hopefully keep the momentum, doing well

I saw a savage work rate and intensity which made Cork look poor.

Yes boy

Theyre going to get some hammering in the final

Agreed. Cork were Cork, Waterford were very good. A great first step in the right direction.

It's going to be a work in progress but some big performances all around the pitch. The three of last year Lyons, Prender and Prunty and also Tadhg Bourke in particular.

Our high fielding was excellent, and even there at the end there was a passage where Coleman tried to run it outside the 45 and we forced them back to playing a lateral ball on their own 45. The tenacity was still there at the end.

People can talk about Cork being poor, but at the end they were knackered because Waterford were all over them. Aussie very lucky, but I'd say he'll miss the Munster Final at the minimum. Hopefully, the penny will drop.

The losing monkey off our backs after 3 long years

Back in a Munster final in which we have nothing too lose and at least a An All Ireland QF. Qualifiers would of been very tricky

The players have very obviously bought into Cahill's philosophy - the intensity compared to last year was unreal. And who knew that actually leaving forwards in the forward line could yield scores!

It's easy to say Cork were poor today but I think a large part of that is due to the intensity Waterford brought. You could still see moments of individual brilliance from Cork players so they clearly have what it takes. Management let them down today - substituting forwards that hadn't got more than a 3-4 good balls into them is madness. What is Alan Cadogan supposed to do when wide after wide is soaring over his head?

For me the main takeaway was how we looked comfortable on the ball when we had it and fought like animals for it when we didn't. We won't be favourites against Tipp or Limerick, and I'm okay with that. Remember guys, as the old saying goes - nothing is won in October :D:D

Clocks only gone back a week and Cork bate.

You’d be buzzing! Football now at 6:45 with a few bottles, can analyse a great win tomorrow!

Poor first 25 mins from the footballers, limerick seem way more athletic & comfortable on the ball. Last 10 was promising and the wind in our favour in the 2nd half.
Ian Corbett a serious operator at 6 for Limerick, his pass for the 2nd goal was pure class.
