Just heard from a reliable source that the footballers travelled to Galway and hammered them out the door recently.

Did they play Roscommon as well ? Obviously Kerry are favourite in the munster final and they are just challenge games but I'm picking up a nice confidenc about the cork footballers.

I think you're being very harsh on him there Mahony0509. I thought he did brilliant last year in his first season and apart from the drawn Munster game v limerick, I thought he played well in every game.
Even in Croke Park last year I heard some people comment how he got well beaten but I disagree - Mulcahy got a few quick fire points just before half time but was kept reasonably quiet for the rest of the 90 mins including extra time. He was caught badly for the Limerick goal this year alright but I think he has some credit in the bank and deserves the chance to redeem himself. Either way it's good that we have more options with Maccie returning and hopefully Spillane if we get out of Munster.

My strongest memory of him last year is him struggling to roll pick a ball versus Tipperary (I think). I get where you're coming from but no matter when he gets the ball, my heart sinks a little.

Don't know about O'Donoghue. He really hasn't impressed me in any game this year or even last year.

The Cork Senior Hurling team to play Waterford in the Munster Hurling Championship has been announced.

1. Anthony Nash - Kanturk
2. Sean O' Donoghue - Inniscarra
3. Eoin Cadogan - Douglas
4. Niall O' Leary - Castlelyons
5. Robert Downey - Glen Rovers
6. Mark Ellis - Millstreet
7. Mark Coleman - Blarney
8. Bill Cooper - Youghal
9. Darragh Fitzgibbon - Charleville
10. Daniel Kearney - Sarsfields
11. Seamus Harnedy - St Itas (Captain)
12. Luke Meade - Newcestown
13. Alan Cadogan - Douglas
14. Patrick Horgan - Glen Rovers
15. Aidan Walsh - Kanturk
16. Patrick Collins - Ballinhassig
17. Conor O' Sullivan - Sarsfields
18. Damien Cahalane - St Finbarrs
19. Stephen McDonnell - Glen Rovers
20. Tim O' Mahony - Newtownshandrum
21. Christopher Joyce - Na Piarsaigh
22. Robbie O' Flynn - Erins Own
23. Shane Kingston - Douglas
24. Conor Lehane - Midleton
25. Declan Dalton - Fr O' Neills
26. Jamie Coughlan - Newtownshandrum

Cads in for Lehane who presumably missed some of the build up with that injury from the Limerick game. I haven't seen any team announcement from Waterford yet.

I'm happy with that team, even if we are odds on to win we should be putting out our strongest team.

I be delighted if we get within single digits of Kerry. That's how far they have fallen

You have two points guaranteed against us next week anyhow, we've given up the ghost. Clare you should beat too

Cork footballers looked impressive last night.. If they could just play competitively against Kerry and not get destroyed I think most of us would accept.

According to Jackie Tyrell on TV today Cork won't make it out of Munster this year.

Love it when the 'experts' write us off.

Was delighted when he said it.

This is exactly what we should be looking for. We're much better off as the underdog.

Fair point. If we can’t beat Waterford and Clare we dont deserve to be going on.

It might not be as Clear cut as turning up next week. Theres bound to be one performance in Waterford this year. Clare could put it up to Limerick but it's hard to see them staying the distance with Limerick.

going to extra time, Cill na Martra 0-8 cill Chartha 1-5

Is it definitely decided by head to head?

And if there's more than 2 teams on equal points are the head to heads then disregarded and it would decided by scoring difference?

Scoring difference if two or more teams are level on points. Head to Head if only two are level.

Both matches v hard to call but from a Cork perspective i'm hoping for Tipp and Waterford wins.

That will put Tipp through and mean that if Cork beat Waterford next Sat. in PUC , we'll go through as well as we will finish ahead of Limerick on the head to head even if they win their last two games.

Waterford could upset the apple cart today
