Cork GAA Discussion Thread

Thanks for corrections guys. I thought it was weird!

I am feeling quite confident about today but we will have to see.

Annoying to have the ladies game on at the same time though. Best of luck to all the Rebels today!!

The RTE doc on Ring will be airing sometime in December by the way.

Great start in the Ladies football, Saoirse Noonan with an early goal

The ladies have made a flying start.

3 mins gone and 1-01 up to no score against the wind

Only a point up ar the water break. Kerry doing well. Keep it tight enough till ht will do.

Outstanding movement and passing leading to that Doireann point.

Kerry putting massive pressure on Cork's kickouts

Lucky not to concede a goal following a poor kickout.

What a shot, so unlucky by Farmer.

I'm guessing the second half will be the opposite way around.

Maybe the ladies footballers should be allowed kick it out further up the pitch to get the general play more in the middle but the wind is strong so maybe it just depends on the game.

I know its early for the excuses but the ref is blowing for any bit of contact on them.

Fine save!

Have heard Tim O'Mahony is a close contact and will not be playing. One or two others too apparently.

I'm pretty sure people make up these kind of things and tell them to certain people in the hope they out themselves on social media or on message boards. Looks like you took the bait

No change to starting 15.

Reckon they'll line out like this

Nash
Sean o donoghue, downey, spillane

Cahalane, Coleman, Tim o Mahony

Luke Meade, Cooper

Harnedy, Hoggie, Robbie OFlynn

Jack O'Connor, Kingston, Dalton

Conditions will play a huge part in the second half.
Whatever about Kerry putting Cork under pressure from the kick outs, you can be certain Kerry will be under all sorts of problems when Cork inevitably do similar in the second half. They are one of the best at doing it.

Point down at ht is not doing too badly. Kerry forwards wont have near as much possession in the second half.

Cork score chalked off for a very soft free by the ref.

Blatant 45 not given for Cork.

Free on the 21 now given for Cork, soft again, he's a poor ref.

Cork a point up at the water break.

Ladies 1 up at the water break

Finn has missed a few frees today that she normally wouldn't.

Ciara O'Sullivan with a fine point. Great prezzing on the kickout.

Followed quickly by winning the kickout again and we now go 3 up.

And now 4. 3 points in 3 minutes.

Finn with another awful free. Happy to be 3 up with 10 to play.

Mc Donnell in for Sean O'Donoghue

Should have been a free out for O'Mahoney

Finn knocks over a free, goal in it 5 to go.

Cork ladies win by 1-14 v 0-14

Abiding memory was the awfully fussy referring. A truly poor display by him.

Kerry played well. Only scored 4 in the second half, 3 were softish frees.

Game will bring Cork on no end. Nice soccer skills by Salirse Noonan at the end, really showed her experience.

Lehane on with 20 min to go. Hopefully a more open game will suit him

Disappointed they took dalton off for him. We know what Lehane can do. Harnedy I would've taken off. Played well, took a knock, rest him up

Both teams are awful though. Cork obv the better of the two
