    Tomorrow's when we find out how much progress this Kildare team has made - only a win will prove Kildare's credentials as a top team. Anything else and I think it could be back to the drawing board - I wish ye well..

    I'm afraid we don't have too many of these nowadays:D, nonetheless, rumours abound this long time about one in particular being made an approach. He's an easy target for the rumour mill though because he works in kildare!

    I have heard of four and three are suposed to definate, the fourth is just a rumour, i will let you know tomorrow i want to see if it is one of the ones i was told about.

    Say it before its printed or I call BS on your post!!!

    Johnston was one supple was the other who are the other 2 or 3 your talking about??

    I doubt you will post who it is before the article as your post stinks of BS tbh and again right before a big game the crap is thrown at Kildare gaa all I can say is yawn this is getting boring
    I agree I doubt there will be more players coming in after the way the last one was received.

    So basically you're dragging up the old Niall McNamee chestnut and throwing in Brendan Murphy for good measure.

    Pub talk and hearsay. Enough of these rumours until something more concrete to support this comes out.

    It's more an overview of the season so far for both teams than a preview if I'm honest.
    Grand for what it is but needs some editing

    All the very best to the lads today. Up the intensity and go out with a real belief we can beat Cork and victory can be achieved.

    Genuinely believe the way Cork are set up will suit this Kildare side. We've a great chance to knock them right out of their stride.

    I'm probably going to come back to a barrage of undue criticism but Kildare cannot go head to head with Cork and just take them on in the traditional sense of 15 against 15.Did that in 2008 and they playing catchup the whole game.

    Kildare seriously need to vary the kickouts.Short kick outs to the full back line and to the wing backs varied with some traditional centre kicks.Corks midfield and half backs often come forward but don;t score but if they roam forward and get the ball into the Cork forward line, they will do enough damage to get a foothold in the game.If Kildare can somehow limit Corks scores in the first 20 minutes, Kildare will have a better chance due to Corks "freshness".Those A v B games they have down there will have kept Cork very competitive for places.

    Kildare people that I know personally have been tipping Cork for the win. I would be annoyed to see Kildare tipped as favourites if I were a Kildare man.

    20 minutes in and Cork are cruising after a slow few minutes at the start.

    A mountain to climb now for Kildare who are losing their composure.

    Nobody could doubt kildares fight Jesus I'm seriously impressed with the reaction after a brutal assault by cork forwards for 10 or 12 minutes if we do nothing else keep cork forwards on a leash

    5 points without reply, very uncharacteristic by Cork.Johnny Doyle really tearing into Cork with some lovely points.
