Bit weird for them to be retiring now and not during the off season. All well in the camp?

Historically, Shane Ronayne not the best man/woman Manager. So I can see how things could go to pot in that sense.

One game at a time. Don't jinx it.

Offaly were poor but we dispatched them clinically enough. Much tougher tests to come though starting with Wexford this weekend. Hopefully the footballers can get one over Meath as well!

Apart from Jack O'Connor, is that the starting 15?

The White Feather

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121894716#Comment_121894716

I think it has to be close. The injured would probably be starters too though. Mark Coleman, Robbie O’Flynn, Ethan Twomey and Seán Twomey are the injured players. Coleman and Robbie definitely if fit.

I think they said on the RTE pod that Coleman lost a lot of teeth and everything. Nasty injury. Is it broken?

The White Feather

Supposed to be broken alright. They said it was a slap of a hurley but I would have thought it was a mistimed shoulder or something like that. Pure speculation on my part.

Broken jaw is not meant to keep someone out that long though so I think he will play in Championship.

The White Feather

Half time in the football

Meath 0-7 Cork 1-4

ShamoBuc

Cork were trailing by 3 with 10 to play but went on a real point scoring spree to win in Navan 1-15 v 1-11

Hurlers are flying too 2-11 v 0-05 Connolly with both goals.

The White Feather

Football finished

Meath 1-11 Cork 1-15

Well done the lads!!! They went 3 down near the end and then turned it right around to go 3 up.

Hurlers are doing very well as I type

Cork: 2-11(17) Wexford: 0-5(5)

It's near the end of the first half. Connolly in the goals again with 2. He really has an eye for them. Great asset this year

The White Feather

Half time now in the hurling

Wexford 0-5 Cork 2-13

If Kilkenny lose, which they are at half time against Waterford who are up by 2, and Cork win, we will actually get a semi final place so you never know.

zetecescort

While taking the opposition into account it's great to see us go for goals rather than take the handy point.

Kilkenny 3 up into injurytime

Corcaigh84

Two hattricks in a row for Connolly.

The White Feather

Great result for the hurlers. Connolly loves banging in goals

zetecescort

Another tough day for the ladies football, held scoreless for 25 min of the 2nd half, 2-11 to 0-6

It will be like this for quite a while unfortunately.

Straight Talker

Great character shown by the footballers to come back and win that one. That's our place in division two secured for next year. I think we need one more win to avoid the Tailteann cup now. I thought the hurlers would've got a tougher game from Wexford, but we won it handily enough in the end. It's a shame that we couldn't sneak into a league semi final, but the main thing is to have a strong championship campaign now.

It's a shame the league and champo are so close together. You have to weigh up a competitive match (or two) vs potential injuries before Waterford in April. Please god our tall athletic Seanie Leary incarnate keeps banging them in!

The White Feather

Yes its one of those games where you are happy to play in a semi final or maybe final but then you are happy you are not too. I just think it would be hard to beat Limerick twice so soon so best left until championship where it really counts. I would be dreading an injury or two as well in those games.

Ryan has correctly seen we needed more options and feels like we are better this year. Feels like we are more balanced. Hopefully Coleman can recover for later Championship games as he is vital. I still think Cunningham if fit could play a very important part too. No one has said anything about Robert Downeys Oscar win either but he just gets on playing well for Cork! 😂

Sully comes across as a bit self entitled in this interview, having a moan about being beaten by Ben O'Connor to the u20 managers job.
