I know everyone hates Tipp but I behoove all posters to remember, reach back in your mind to as a short time ago as the early to mid 2000s, when Cork were last dominating hurling, with their bastardised egg-n-spoon version of hurling, and remember that there is nothing, nothing as breathtakingly arrogant as your typical sombrero clad, camera gawping, Rebel supporter

Those posters of a younger vintage, those that have grown up watching Kilkenny dominating the hurling landscape, perhaps you found that difficult to take but trust me, if over the next few years Cork have even 10% of the success Kilkenny have had over the last two decades you'll quickly learn the true meaning of insufferable arrogance

They've won a munster title now, you have Nash jumping around like a yahoo, their supporters all over social media predicting an All-Ireland win and now they're try to undermine Kilkenny's achievements

"We're back kiddo" <groan>

I don't agree with Golder Miller's post, the fact of the matter is that Kilkenny have totally outperformed Cork and Tipp over the past 20 years as the trophy count shows, but it was quite open to posters to criticise his views rather than to lambaste the entirety of the Cork support.

I don't normally use emoticons in my posts but to be honest, I considered using one in that post to reflect that while Golden Miller's post was dripping with arrogance and annoyed me, I wasn't being entirely serious. Obviously the post contains generalisations, not every Cork supporter is as I described, just like not all Kilkenny supporters are as bitter in defeat as me.

Everyone does hate Tipp though :P

Chatting a tipp supporter this evening and without a hint of arrogance he said the cork supporters heads will explode with the cockiness and swagger back.

Was talking to KK fella there and tipp fella and a Clare fella and a Waterford fella and sure they dont like Cork.

There's a lot of good sliotars out there now, and much more affordable than ripoff O Neills. As long as they are CLG certified, they can be used.

Taking a bag from the goal and throwing it into the stand is theft and some sort of inane attempt at cheating. The individual should be punished accordingly.

For me it just seems so lame and petty to do this. If teams are so focused on what Sliothars the opposition might be using it just shows their mindset is one of inferiority. Clare withdrew men to defend the other day when they had the talent within them to attack. Cork played with belief and focused on their strengths and fortune favoured the brave

On the Sliothar issue though. The umpires really should be removing any bags from behind the goal anyway. Only the Sliothars approved and agreed on by all teams within the competition should be used. A breach of this should be severely punished.

The one thing that did unite Cork and Kilkenny historically was a shared hatred of all things Tipperary

With Tipp fans equally divided as to whether Kilkenny or Cork were the bigger shower of bastards!

I can't believe sliotars are still an issue at this point. There should only be one brand of regulated sliotars involved in any senior inter county game and no team should be able to provide their own. Madness that it could even be possible for different teams to use different sliotars in a championship game in 2017.

shouldve heard the cork crowd on monday. youd think they won the AI, world cup, world series, ashes, americas cup and the ****ing olympics the day before.

And fair play to them. Completely written off for the past few years, and probably on merit. A huge lack of underage success and yet they've come in this year and out performed three of the best in the country. Cork have always had an arrogance when it comes to sport (and most other things too) so don't know why you'd be surprised. In my opinion it's good to have them back.

Noticed that also. What's the story with that?

Any better buying them in store, or are the middle of the stand tickets going out through clubs?

Supervalu and Centra just log onto Tickets.ie for their tickets.

Same story in Semple in the hurling games there this year, all stand tickets in the corners.

I'll hold out a bit. Can see block 302 coming now for South Stand. Although that's for the Saturday!

You know something I remember the hype around in cork in 2014 after winning Munster-

Are they going to fall again

Rumpy Pumpy · 12-07-2017 04:18PM

Cork are still 5/1 in the bookies. Galway are favourites at 7/4, with Tipp at 5/2.

Exactly and considering they are a round ahead of Tipp, they are quite a distant third favourite, which is fair enough I would have thought.

Still a hell of a long way from where they were 2 months ago.

What gives them a boost though is that they can't meet Galway before the final and have about a 12.5% chance of playing Tipp before the final, so you'd have to fancy them to make it that far, and with another game under their belt (and knowing by then a lot more about Galway and Tipp as well) they would have to be considered very good value at 5/1.

Much higher chance than 12.5% of playing Tipp again.

I'm positive if it was a Tipp/Cork Semi Final then it would be the exact same outcome as 2014.
