Waterford GAA Thread - Mod note post #1

losing our heads

Great effort, they should be immensely proud of themselves.

Think denied a penalty when Walsh was through, Downey caught his arm with the hurley inside the box.

Special mention for Prendergast, had a big game and more than justified his selection. Hard luck to them.

Poor game. Can't fault the effort but we were very poor. Hopefully we will have a better management team next year

cork were ther for the taking we just ain’t good enough simple. Surely Aussie Gleason should have been on with 15 to go.quelly not good enough never was

I agree queally has shown glimpses this year it’s not him whose at fault… the ever changing management isn’t the solution and hopefully Lady Luck decides to be on our side some day🙏

it was a mistake to play with the wind in the first half knowing that meant you had the sune in your eyes the second half ,that was stupid

Cant fault the effort or performance, everything went against us, injuries and ridiculous black cards and penalties. No Prunty, De Burca or Gleeson. I'd be as critical as anyone but as a man they gave everything for the jersey and that's all you can ask. Sometimes its not ment to be. Cork needed every decision going there way to bet us. After the last few years there are green shoots of hope. Also playing at home with only about a quarter of the support makes no sense.

I think Waterford hurling peaked under Cahill both on and off the field, has been dying ever since. County board has to take a lot of that blame giving Davy fitz then quelly the job.

Ah **** it anyway, another year over after 3 brave performances but just couldn't get over the line

Likely a hammering next week, retirements and maybe either Queally getting another year on default as who else is there

That fire in tycor really added to the defeat, lets hope nobody was hurt etc

We should have won that game. We did ourselves no favors, starting a man with a questionable hamstring and Daly is just not dependable.

Stack was disgraceful though, I hope someone comes out and openly criticizes that performance from him as it was verging on corruption.

Davy Fitz could be freed up from Antrim soon.

if Dessie Hutchinson played for any other county he’d be wearing no. 25.

too good of a player to drop on his club form , but given cork were missing their entire full back line from the first two games after sean o'donohue went off you would expect him to fire into the game

first black card was a joke too , thank god stack cant do our games

think that falls on that first hurdle . The reality of it vast majority on here would agree to have any chance we had to beat Clare , the candle has sadly blown out .

Exactly. We went from Cahill to Davy. An absolute Spooner. I could never imagine John Kiely saying to Gillane "I am going to try this plan with you playing midfield" it would only happen with us. Queally had 20 official games as manager and from what I seen in the first half against Tipp, then the second half and then today was such a mixed bag it reflects his time as manager. There's plenty of outside managers that could work well with Donal O'Rourke. We bought back Shanahan after he failed alongside that other spoofer McGrath and for what? Is Dessie the scapegoat for our poor management team? The players are there. We need a good committee to find a manager that will take the job. Why not Pat Ryan? He said he misses being in the game after leaving Cork. We had a fantastic Cork man in Justin McCarthy who bought us some of the best days we've had as supporters. There's good managers out there we just seem to appoint chancers and fools that are desperate for the job
