Cork GAA Discussion Thread

Absolutely Cavan have improved a lot in recent years. I still saw this as a winnable game though seeing that we were at home. It was a game we had to win but we didn't. This defeat very much plunges Cork football into crises now. We made a decent bit of progress last year, but so far we've gone way backwards on that.

Every county bar maybe Galway focus on one code. And look at cost for them is beyond extreme.

The days of trying be successful at both are long gone.

We can't get it right in football and if honest just wasting time with a sport we never be successful again at bar odd fluke now.

Cork county board have no money. Unless a JP goes in its going get worse unless rugby becomes as big for Pairc.

We are producing hurlers just need toughen them up. We haven't produced a quality footballer in county in 16-17 years now.

Cork footballers deserves the pathetic support it gets if honest. We could barely get 500 to limerick few years ago to take on mayo who brought down 15000.

People need look at bigger picture here. Cork gaa is on as bad state as FAI are now. Actually worse.

We can either get some success in one code or nothing in both.

It sure is.

I would love see success in both but sad fact is unless we see success its going get worse.

Cork football is simply not producing. Serious structure problems when you cant produce one footballer since mid 00s of any class.

Are we just going throw money away at something we seriously have not any success or produced with?

If your in business do you keep investing in something that fails year on year? It's same in sport.

I said it last year and got slated by same few who got carried away with couple wins but we are back sqaure one. In fact if anything got worse.

And it won't hurt cork gaa cause its already failed with millions pumped in.

Cork GAA needs act like business and produce like one. Ya don't keep investing in failure.

Give ot to clubs, anything. Ladies teams even.

5 years ago in 2019 a publication was put out for Cork football to be competing with big guns by 2024.

Well here we are. Pure waste and money have been better spent elsewhere

The Kew tours comments are regular arguments in most duel counties, up here we get it all the time

My opinion is if you put the right structure in place then it shouldn't matter who gets more money, why is the likes of Conor counihan , Larry Tompkins even billy Morgan headed of the football development?...is there an actual football development

To be fair initially we had to do this to get a level playing field against the hurling when Fitz was in charge and it worked, bringing in ex intercounty players at all levels of coaching with the development team teams from u14 up and it does seem to work

I can't see a good structure in cork football, at club level is excellent but its not translated to intercounty at all that is the main issue,

Poor Billy is approaching his 80s. If we have rely on Billy we truly are fucked.

Your right if right structures are put in place they should get money. That's the total opposite to what cork are doing and have done.

Ladies football struggling against Waterford, down 1-9 to 0-1 at HT

Hurling v Waterford live on TG4 on Sunday

Robbie O'Flynn will be out for another 4 or 5 weeks with his hamstring. Darragh Fitzgibbon has yet another shoulder tweak so he is out for sunday too.

Ben Cunningham has a hamstring injury too but its felt he will come back just for the end of the league. Sounds like he can train but not match fit yet. Really wanted to see him more in the league but hopefully he will play a few before Championship.

Damien and Conor Cahalane are both training away so will be available for Sunday.

Not at all the main thing is that we beat them in the championship! We could do with a win for the confidence alright though.
