Sunday November 27th Munster Club JHC semi final; Charleville v Rockwell Rovers (Tipperary) 2 00pm in Charleville.

ShamoBuc · 27-11-2011 4:25pm

Great win for Charleville today over Rockville Rovers in Charleville and they are into the Munster Junior hurling final in Mallow in 2 weeks time against Cappamore from Limerick.
They were down to 14 and got 2 goals with about 10mins left for some clear daylight between them. James O'Brien had another super outing.

It finished Charleville 2-14 v 0-08

Great win for Charleville and also a mention for Kilmichael hurlers who beat Kenmare in the Munster Junior B Championship quarter final 1-15 to 1-4.

ShamoBuc · 27-11-2011 8:39pm

Munster Junior A and B Hurling Champions has a rather nice ring to it.
Two tough games for that to happen though.

Are you saying so that Cyril Kavanagh was pestering Bord Gais for an award for been Cork's number 1 fan? I personally don't know Cyril Kavanagh and as for him getting an award fair play to him but there's surely more serious topics to be discussing than about the merits of a fan award?

Charleville will play Limerick's Cappamore next Sunday in Mallow in the Munster Club JHC final. It has been a quite year for Cork clubs in the provincial championships so hopefully Charleville will bring some silverware to the county.

Or Limerick could take the clean sweep

Anyone know what kind of team the Cork Teachers Interfirms football have? We are playing them on Wednesday evening in Mallow.

I was talking to a workmate today who told me Cappamore were senior 4 years ago so I'd say they have a strong enough team. It should be a good final hopefully.

We (Medtronic) won last night by a few points. The GAA complex in Mallow is unbelievable, a stadium ground with floodlights, training pitch with floodlights, a third pitch, Astroturf with lights and an indoor Astroturf pitch.

In the match itself we got off to a good start but were put under pressure at the end of the first half. Regrouped at half time and kicked a few more scores in the second to gain the advantage again. We’ve a home draw in the final verses the winners of McAleer and Rushe from Cookstown and the winners of Leinster.

People normally get a bit of a shock on seeing it for a first time - seriously impressive!
Congrats on the win but ye are lucky I didn't tog out though!!!!

Great to see Charleville win the Munster Junior hurling title today on a scoreline of
3-15 V 2-08, (no treble for Limerick;))

dartbhoy · 11-12-2011 6:19pm

Delighted for Charleville. It has been an emotional roller coaster of a year for them and they thoroughly deserve to be crowned Munster Champions. 1 of their star players Des Fitzgearld was seriously injured in the Cork county semi final and is currently in the rehab centre in Dun Laoighare so I'm sure this fine young team were determined to win Munster for their team mate.

Charleville were a cracking 5/2 to win today's final! Well done Charleville,the christmas celebrations officially start tonight!

Ah shur... can't have everything. And you can't trust that crowd from Cappamore anyway

That's a fairly convincing win though.

What happened to him ?

He collided with the Kilbrin goalie at the Cork county championship semi final. I wasn't at a the game but it was held up for nearly 45 minutes while they waited for an ambulance to come and get him. That game was held in October and he has been hospitalised ever since.

Not fully aware of the extent of his injuries but rumour was he had no feeling in his legs after the collision. Hopefully this man makes a full recovery.

Alot of fringe players will get a run out this year I reckon. Great to see O'Neill back after the disaster of last year. Hopefully a good preseason will help Canty as the year continues.

Wow, sounds promising!

http://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/oneills-winter-warmer-for-cork-180300.html

Really hope from a personal and a fan point of view that Kevin Harrington gets a fair go off the Cork Seniors this year, the guy is a class act, very dedicated and has never let Bantry down, great footballer, very like Michael Shields, a sticky marker but isnt afraid to attack every now and then when its safe to do so.

and if it turns out that he isnt good enough, fair enough but he definitely deserves a go, never let Cork down in an Under-21 or Junior shirt either...

Best of luck to Charleville on Sunday in the All Ireland junior hurling semi final against Manchester based team Fullen Gaels.

dartbhoy · 22-01-2012 4:13pm

Great win for Charleville against Fullen Gaels 1-17 to 0-6. Best of luck to them in the All Ireland final next month against Kilkenny side St Patricks.

Another good win for them alright, I've a feeling St. Pat's will be a different kettle of fish though. Looking forward to that one.

Cork had another good win today - against CIT - 2-17 v 0-07
They will play Tip in the final next Sunday in Clonmel after they defeated UCC 1-15 v 0-09

dartbhoy · 29-01-2012 6:40pm

The first silverware of the year for Cork footballers landed today with victory in the McGrath Cup final against Tipperary 0-13 to 0-6. A nice boost before next weekend's League start with an away game against Armagh.

ShamoBuc · 29-01-2012 8:26pm

Champions!!!!!

No stopping us now!!!!!

It's nice to have these games just before the league starts up though- much better than training sessions I would imagine.
