Huge loss Mccarthy changed he's mind went under twenty ones Cork will like win mcgrath cup but the dublin game I'm worried If thry loose that with trips to the north it's huge ask to get momentum back huge ask Cork never scored from play last week in the second half Sean was right durrant admitted he had poor season til the final I admire durrant for that and he said there's more in him If he had good coaching maybe have him on the panel But who will coach these guys to improve is the worry

Thought no. 25 Meaney threw himself around well and got stuck in. conditions were very tough and Rochestown won a match Cork teams would normally wilt in. Kingstons point in 1st half where he caught puck out and showed class by losing his marker and pointing was superb for any level. The nenagh no.6 did a good marking job tho. Was Nealon no.29 dropped or just not good enough. Would be great to see Rochestown go all the way. Their subs today all performed well.

sean mac wrote: » The McGrath cup even when they win it will have been of no use to cork whatsoever as we seem oblivious to the obvious. There is no point in selecting the likes of desmond, hodentt and hayes who aren't senior level, same go's for Jennings who is even out of position. Aas for the keeper, he is at this level an average keeper with a weak kickout - weak in the sense that he doesn't have the confidence to go long if a few go wrong for him. Why is price on the panel if he isn't getting a game here ffs? Is it select ohallorhan at all costs? since Cuthbert took over ohallorhan has played in every game bar the tyrone game last year where david hanrahan was excellent. While with other management playing cadogan at centre back would only be for token, with this crowd it could be with some 'genius' plan involved. Cadogan is a fine full back as long as he is given cover by outside backs like ALL full backs, However he is a poor kicker and runs into rouble with the ball - cardinal sins for a 6. Management are pinning everything on cussen, unfortunately like with jbm, walsh and counihan before this wont work but here we go again. Collins will do well against a pathetic Waterford team but is a half forward. Again durrant is on the panel because he played minor with Kerry and bishopstown men are in awe of the green and gold, he admitted himself he had a poor club championship up until the final! Barry o driscoll on the panel years like hayes - good in these matches not a championship player, if these 2 take championship panel places over the likes of Vaughan or maceoin we are in real trouble. We will head into the Dublin league game with nothing learned unfortunately and without a coach - unbelieveable stuff

He was a county minor at 15 iirc but has barely hurled since. Supposed to be near a comeback now and rumors were that he might have been togging today.
