Still a lot of last years panel still considered, Mc Donnell Burke Lawton and Cooper, not nowhere near good enough even to be panellists, why not give Eoin Murphy from Erins Own a tryout? they need to look at the players that were in form

Agree, Need some muscle in the forwards now more than guile. Murphy would give nobody an easy game with good ball

Happy to see Shane o Keefe get a chance, probably not a starter for me but offers a lot of toughness and one of the best in Cork in the air. Hope Robbie o Flynn gets a run too. Where's Brosnan?

Cork 1-28 Kerry 0-18FT

how many chip games did he get? none by my calculation
so unproven imo

Lots of talking points from that game

Tipp are well off the pace, evidenced by their tonking by the Kerry u21 team but good to see Mullins from Eire Og starting at full back - very solid defender, not sure he's big enough for IC full back just yet though.

Biggest talking point is Niall Coakley bagging 2-3, all but one point from play. Had been told last year he was flying for St.Judes so good to see him being given a shot

Fair play paddy kelly, i had heard that 'consultation' meeting in ovens was a total joke already and most people left at lunch. First question to healy tomorrow in mallow should be -why are you putting up with this bull**** and why are ye training in fermoy and having to biild a ****ing gym? **** me this is a joke, fermoy actually have a very good gym btw. Most of the players live in the city or west cork why are they not training in cit like the hurlers?

Well there is change on the way. Frank has announced his retirement. No, wait. That was 8 years ago, in 2009. He did say that he was giving 2 years notice, so would not actually be stepping down until 2011.

What Paddy Kelly described today is what so many people have known about for years and years. If this was in any industry or other organisation, there would be uproar. The 'consultation' that supposedly went on last September out in Eire Og, with no opportunity to discuss or have meaningful follow up is what people have spoken about for years and years and years.

I was a dedicated supporter of Cork GAA teams for years, travelling all over the country to support them. Four years ago, I took the decision that while Frank Murphy and his cronies remain in charge, I will never again go to a Cork match, hurling or football. I have stuck to my decision, although I've often found it hard. We're going nowhere, very quickly and those responsible should hang their heads in shame.

How can this be allowed to happen? Very serious questions need to be asked, beginning with how could somebody announce their retirement, yet that same person still remains, with an absolute stranglehold on power, 8 years later, during which time the general state of Cork GAA and morale has descended to an all time low?

Cork 3-12 Limerick 1-9 HT

Cork 0-5 Kerry 1-8 HT

Utterly predictable response from Ger Lane this morning.
One of these guys is lying and imo it ain't Paddy Kelly.
