Cork GAA Discussion Thread

Enjoyable first half. Kilkenny really wanting to win it seems whereas Cork not killing themselves. Ref has been very poor giving a lot of frees in particular to Kilkenny. Once we were in on goal and he called it back for a free for us. Another one it looked like Power fell over and he gave us a free.

No pressure being really put on Kilkenny players a lot of the time.

Footballers draw with Derry with a goal from the last kick of the game. not great for most of it and a mix of Derry relaxing when 7 up and us making a few changes brought us back into it.

Camogie beaten by a point, conceded a soft goal messing with the ball in defence. will play Galway again in the league final in two weeks

Someone needs to tell the Cork players that it isnt a training match.

I have thought from the start that Cork are not really trying to win other than the new players. It does look like we are treating it as a training match for the most part. Most Kilkenny players are under no pressure

Ya its hard to read too much into today.

Hate saying this but might be blessing after Limericks performance last night.

We won't really know where Cork are until end of Munster.

This year was never about lifting Liam but to get more physical and get bit nearer to Limerick. I think we have but only so slightly.

The real answer is to come.

Disapointing result but overall it's been a decent league campaign. We do have some of the more experienced players still to come back, and if we have a decent championship then today will be quickly forgotten about! Well done to the footballers, on coming back to get a draw against Derry though.

It's been quarter of a century since our most recent league title in hurling. Ah well that's just the way it is. I think we have the right management teams in place in both senior codes, but there'll probably be a few more bumps along the road, before we return to glory in both codes.

I would have preferred if Cork went all out to win today. We needed to be at our best to beat Kilkenny at Nowlan Park. Kilkenny were just that bit sharper and scored well when it mattered. I'm sure not everyone will agree with me but 1998 is along time ago since a league title. I know we would have got Limerick in the final and highly unlikely we would have won it but you got to get there first to have a chance.

Kilkenny will give it a right crack in the final and like the All Ireland final last year who knows what might happen? Cork aren't going to win an All Ireland this year, let's be realistic about this. We just aren't good enough at the moment.

We can be ready come championship but no guarantee we will get out of Munster. I prefer we try and win silverware when we can and there would be nothing wrong with league title for this Cork team if they had gone after it. All Munster teams will be strong so no guarantee we are getting out of Munster. Hope I'm wrong.

What are people's hopes for Cork this year in hurling championship? Getting out of Munster? I can't see them doing anything more than that if they pull that off.

Win Munster and show signs that we can at least compete with Limerick. That would be decent progress for this year i think.

You are on the ball Shamo! He looks very good. Seems to have all the time in the world when he has the sliotar.

Cork 2-11 Waterford 0-10

We should be even further ahead. A lot of wides. Forwards all look good. Hartley for Waterford very good too, Brilliant save from the Cork keeper to keep them from getting a goal

Big win in the end

Cork 3-19 Waterford 0-15

A lot of solid performances throughout the team

some scores from the minor game. 2nd goal a great strike

conditions not great but our handling is poor compared to Waterford. 1-11 each after 40 min

Cork 1-17 Waterford 1-13 FT. did enough to win but a little fortunate also, Waterford with a few poor wides in the 2nd half and were 1 pass away from a goal in injury time.

Watched the u20 game tonight. Cork did very well to come back into it after Waterford goal. Good win at the end. Waterford were better team in first half but Cork definitely the better team in the second half and closed it out. Waterford had some bad misses as well, in another day they be converted. Nice to get the campaign off to a winning start in both grades v Waterford.

I agree with that and if they go further would be a bonus.

I'm thinking of going to the league final Limerick vs kilkenny in pairc Ui chaoimh next week.

Have you any tips for getting to and from the train station to pairc ui chaoimh.

Don't fancy doing a lot of walking before or after the game.

What about getting back from pairc ui chaoimh to the train station

Not confident but we should have enough to get through. I think Cleary said Brian Hurley is only 50/50. Big loss if he doesn't make it
