Feels more like challenge game than the Offaly game. Team doing just enough, crowd very quiet. Very sloppy, no intensity, leaving free men all over the place
Lads I don't care what he think, we are going to get a tanking from Limerick next day out. Hopeless performance.
Great win...there is an All Ireland in this team if they believe...bit lethargic today but got the job done
Not a hope after today's performance
Very below par performance.
The only good thing is that every one now will be fairly sure Limerick (who I presume we will play) will hammer us.
If we hammered Dublin, then Limerick will know whats to come.
Feels like we have targeted the Semi Final and not too bothered with these games. Seems to be like we viewed them as warmups. Dangerous thing to do as you can get caught sometimes but now its a great position. Limerick will think they just have to turn up. Thats exactly what we want.
I doubt Limerick will think they have to turn up.
What do you mean? They are going for 5 in a row! Is it even worth us turning up? Cork barely beat Offaly and Dublin! We all know Limerick are unstoppable in Croke Park, backed by a billionaire, generational team etc!!!
We might just as well fulfil the fixture but what chance do we have…….
You're the 1 saying Limerick will think they just have to turn up. You don't win 4 in a row by being overconfident. Stupid comment
Jeez I was kidding around relax.
Limerick are bound to think it. It suits us is all I meant.
There's no way Limerick will think that. Cork have beaten them already this year so they certainly won't be thinking they just have to turn up. Far too experienced for that.
A win today also for Cork Camogie
Cork 4.22 Dublin 0-5
2-7 from Amy O'Connor and kept Dublin scoreless from open play. Cork play Galway next week in final group game
Job done and nothing more nothing less. A huge improvement will be required against Limerick the next day and that improvement is in us.
Big whoosh…
Ugly win!
Dublin were cat! They played for 60min like they were beaten already.
Cork never kicked on. No intensity.
Massive improvement needed against limerick or it could get real ugly!
Look if we lose then i'm sure we can keep the losing margin down to under 10 points! The bottom line is unless we improve on our performances against Offaly and Dublin then the show is over for this year.
There's a huge performance in us against Limerick i'd like to think, but we'll need a bit of luck to see them off as well.
I just worry about our tactics in defence and our lack of defensive organization in general. I just fear that like that all Ireland final in 2021 that they could really go to town on us there.
The Tailteann cup is just a secondary football competition though. They have a right to be on tv but not at the expense of the players competing in the McCarthy cup imo.
Job done. We beat Offaly and Dublin without any type of intensity as they were fairly poor.
We did what we needed to do.
There's alot more in us and I fully expect to be up for the Limerick challenge in a meaningful way - as distinct from today.
it'll quieten the hype anyway
Probably better off going in written off, we may perform then but I can't see us getting the good start v Limerick again. That was vital in our last victory.
my argument against this narrative is , why not move the rugby to rte news now and change the time of the two hurling games , i cant say too much because our county board wanted it on the sunday , but didnt want to please david kent who went out to screw two of our players during covid
the argument should be why show a rugby game ahead of a gaa game rather then show a tailteann cup game ahead of hurling
game was over before dublin started to fight , they were miles off their men and cork took the foot off the gas , it never look liked costing them the game but its highly unlikely to happen again at any time two weeks sunday
game confirmed for 4pm july 7th, tickets on sale tuesday
Up 1-05 to 0-5 at the half. Haven’t looked potent going forward but snuck in a goal shortly before half time. Scoreline probably a bit flattering at the minute. Fairly desperate game in terms of entertainment.
Yes I find the football terrible to watch these days. Only really watch when Cork are involved and maybe the final. They need rule changes desperately.
A word on the GAAGO commentators who don't help matters.
For one, they sound incredibly bored. Which I don't blame them in some ways but they could at least talk up the game more. And second, they seem to love Louth and think Cork are terrible. Both teams doing the same kind of thing in my view. The co commentator was saying at one stage Cork were going nowhere down the side when the player pops it over the bar! This made me laugh out loud!!
christ this is a hard watch
desperate stuff, Louth goal has them 2 up with 13 min left
2 awful misses from Cork since their goal
Edit: Make that 3
Should have scored 2 goals but now its a draw
In for a point and we go backwards. Christ almighty
Yes, there is a reason why they are called forwards.
They are useless, havent a clue.
