Cork GAA Discussion Thread

Cork are not a top team. About 13th or 14th best team in country at a reach.

Struggled to stay in Div 2 and needed help in doing so.

Hammered out gate at u20 and minor level by kerry who themselves ain't winning AIs although not far off it to be fair.

I wish you were right I really do.

But as Cork supporter it's going get worse before gets better and as hard it is to say that it's probably what's needed if we are actually take football serious again.

I work in Kerry. I go few underage games here and there. I then see difference back home in Cork.

It's worlds apart. And it's reflected in the intercounty games.

Yes I have been negative about Cork Football for while. I didn't even want comment about result on Saturday. If I'm honest I did not even watch it.

We lost second half by 14 points. I hear things like "oh if only Cork took their goal chances" "if Cork did this" "if Cork did that"

Excuse after excuse after excuse.

Look we have only 7 All Irelands. It's pretty shabby to be fair. What else do I expect I guess. But been in 23 all ireland finals at same time.

Dublin have proven its very hard to be good at both codes.

But Cork football is at embarrassing levels now.

Joe Brolly is right. What is the point.....

..

What are your thoughts on the hurling game the weekend v Limerick?

Is it worth our while fulfilling the fixture as all the comments on social media are saying Limerick by 8+.

I think Cork will be ready for battle next day out if its good enough to beat Limerick is another thing. I think it will be tight if you ask me.

….

I do think we will do much better than the first game. Still expect Limerick to win but will be closer than most think..Limerick by 4 or 5 I reckon

Baby turns blue would have been great! Corcaigh Abu!

If anyone has a spare ticket or two for Saturday evening please let me know.

The hurlng team will be announced tonight at 10 pm.

The only one definitely out is Ger Mellerick with a broken finger. I am hoping that Dalton and Downey are able to start. They both had hamstring issues Hopefully Niall O'Leary is ok too.

I am expecting a vast improvement from the last day. Its great to be able to right a bad performance a few weeks after it and we should be raring to go on Saturay night. I think this could be a bad tempered game as Cork will be out to put things right and of course Limeick are not going to roll over!

That full back line is in for a roasting.

Im enclined to agree

I see nothing to make me think we can right the wrong of a few weeks back!! I don't see enough want!! Sport is all about hurt and hunger. I don't know why but I don't see these players hurting after the last game. They should be after letting the fans down and more importantly themselves!!

They can hurt all they like. They weren't good enough to beat Limerick last time out and they won't be good enough on Saturday either although I expect it to be a good bit closer.

No offence now but I don't buy into this thing of "letting the fans down". They play for themselves, their families and their clubs, they don't owe the ordinary Cork man on the street anything. I never went to a Cork match expecting the team to win "for me". Not trying to get thick with you or anything, no offence intended, just my opinion.

What's the ideal scanerio for Cork tomorrow? Lots of opinions saying not for Cork to go all out that they potentially will meet Limerick down the road again . To me nothing is guaranteed. We have a small chance tomorrow of winning a Munster title. Cork should go all out and die with their boots on to win it. I personally feel if we can't beat them tomorrow we will never beat them this year then if we were to meet them again. We need to make the habit of beating Limerick not breaking it.
