    Kickouts the biggest problem today. Great effort but look tired now, Kerry lead by 7 with 10 to go.

    Plenty positives for us for the qualifiers

    Honest effort from a limited team. Would need 3/4 upgrades from midfield up to compete with the top tier teams. Winning kickouts and chance creation still the biggest issues.

    We were never winning this but we all knew it. When will Cork beat Kerry again?? we could be waiting decades. We couldn't beat Kerry when we had good teams. We missed our chance in 2020 loosing to Tipperary in Munster final. There won't be any more silverware opportunities again I'm afraid with this Kerry team around.

    I agree and home advantage. Cork will take along time before they are good enough to compete with the best again.

    Was a far better effort than last year, so progress in that respect anyway. Long way to go alright.

    We gave it a go we stuck with them for about 50 minutes, but Kerry were very comfortable winners in the end. 10 years since our most recent Munster title, and 10 years since we last beat Kerry in a normal summer championship game. A pathetic and disgraceful state of affairs to be honest.

    12 points in 20 minutes in a football game is awful to concede. You would expect a Wicklow or Carlow to do better.

    Look I can't fault effort to a degree but we are miles away.

    We could go this decade without anything. Things can change quick too but it's hard see it at minute.

    The referee giving everything to Kerry didn't help either to be honest.

    TBF that's where football is these days....

    • miles between teams, you're blown out after 10 mns.
    • nothing between the teams, goes to the last few minutes
    • sliding scale then, keeping it competitive for 50 mns seems about where we are with Kerry right now.

    Kerry brought on Morna and Geaney at that stage, we've had such a bad 10 years it's only natural we don't have the strength in depth to match that. Looking forward, some bright sparks, O'Mahony looks an excellent player. Need a few more of that 20's team to make the step up over the next few years. Moving it from 21's to 20's means that development will take one year longer that 10 years ago

    caught rotten for the goal, waiting for the ball to come rather than going towards the pass and Kerry intercept.

    hard enough to watch too, I'd say we've kicked the ball 4 or 5 times

    A fairly useless performance. Can't even do the basics right.

    Hmm indeed nearly 20 years since Liam McCarthy has been to Leeside. We might win a senior all Ireland in either code before 2030 hopefully!

    Very little talk if any at all about the Waterford game here. Waterford will be favourites and our backs will be up against the wall going to Walsh Park, but i'd like to think there is a big performance in us. Whether beating Waterford and Tipp, is enough to keep our season alive is another story entirely though.

    Good to see Connolly start, was about the only positive from the Clare game. Otherwise its hard to see a huge improvement from the same faces in much the same positions

    Yes Mellerick is injured.

    I hope to see the Roche twins get game time in this too. It is hard to know what Cork will be like as I was expecting us to come out of the blocks fast against Clare whereas it was like a whimper. Infuriating to watch as they showed they can play but in patches. You cannot give teams an extensive lead like that and expect to win. If we can match them early on we can win this. But go behind, Kingston has shown he cannot change from Plan A. It is weird but I worry even if we win against Waterford then we will collapse against Tipperary. One minute, I think we have turned the corner, the next it is a total misfire. But just as we collapsed against Clare, we can play really well against Waterford next. No consistency at all.

    But one game at a time and I hope we don't let the heads drop if things are against us early on. Play with some pride in the Jersey. We are Cork, after all.

    Patrick Horgan just needs one point to pass out Joe Canning as the Championships top scorer! So be sure to cheer, wherever you are when he points it! What a great player he is for Cork.

    I'm not expecting a Cork performance unfortunately I've seen too much of their non performances in the last 3-4 games. Waterford will win by a healthy 7-8 pts.

    I think we'd take a good performance and if we held them to 4 points then that might give us a bit of hope for the future....
