    Very happy with all the changes in the hurling team. This is a game we really must win and I reckon we will.

    We're down by a point at the moment. What a sad state of affairs, fighting for our lives to avoid third division football!

    Down by 3 as I type this now. I didn't expect anything else though.

    They just cant get the results needed. The level is incredibly poor



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Straight Talker


    Three points down now have we got the character to turn this around?

    Jeez we hung on to win by a point. I expected a loss. I don't have any confidence in them but they stood up today and got the win. I have to say fair dues to them but we need to keep this going into the other games.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 32,880 CMod ✭✭✭✭ShamoBuc


    Never in doubt.....



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Straight Talker


    It wasn't looking good, but this was a game we needed to win and win it we did. Hopefully this game will be a turning point going forwards and that we drive it on from here.

    What's the relevance with the jersey against Waterford?



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Straight Talker


    The footballers did their bit and it's over to the hurlers now.

    Ref loving his whistle a bit too much for my liking so far. Just wish he let play develop a bit more

    I hate when 2 guys scuffling and ref gives both yellows. This ref has done it twice.

    Keeps whistling for things and has upset the flow of the game. Then to top it off he has missed a few obvious frees on Horgan



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Lehane gets hit in the head and no yellow. Shocking reffing.



  • Registered Users Posts: 291 ✭✭jimmythesulk


    Hayes looks good for cork whenever he gets the ball. Ye need more of this type of forward.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    Jack O'Connor really putting his hand up today



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,542 ✭✭✭Seadin


    Cork falling asleep last 15 mins. Lads we are bang average. Nobody should be getting carried away with All Irelands this year. Pat Ryan is just hopeless manager. Tactically destroyed yet again. That's his job. We are in big trouble here. Waterford back to three points.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 32,880 CMod ✭✭✭✭ShamoBuc


    Two wins.

    Just about.



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    We eased off a tad bit too early but we had a lot of subs, Worrying to see some players go off early and hopefully they are ok for the next day.

    The main thing is to get the win and we do have a bit to work on still. Things going nicely from what I can see.

    Good to see Connolly get a few minutes. Harnedy back too. Coleman makes a huge difference to us. Always looks so assured. O'Connnor looks like he is bursting to get in that team. Lehane was playing well until taken off. Hayes looks very strong. Lot to be positive about.

    Hopefully Cunningham gets some game time as well as a few others to come back. Some real competition for places developing



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Straight Talker


    We were winning comfortably but then we had another fadeout, and let a bang average Waterford team back into it. Still though a win is a win, but these are not the type of performances that will win all Ireland's.

    I'm really not convinced we are making any progress under Ryan and I think we will actually struggle to get out of Munster when it comes down to it. There are parts of the last three games where we have totally collapsed. Very worrying and time will prove that point. We have too much to improve on between now and championship.

    ye made 11 changes from a very competitive league game v kilkenny two weeks ago , got to have a proper look at tommy o connell in midfield who looks a hard bit of stuff , something cork have been missing , brian saunders has broken the collins code in the goalkeeping department

    the backs played well , put their men under pressure , problem is it didnt stick at the other side and there are some big names up there not doing it , fine goal by jack o connor today but he lived off very little

    yes when the ground dries and you get a few players back , but you would like to see the marquee players step it up this time of year too
