We don't know about morale or whether the players have any faith in management - I thought that things were improving but the League Final, threw it all back into the melting pot. Darragh thinks we'll be far tighter defensively and even though Cooper and JOD are superb footballers, neither can be 100% so if we can ever spring a surprise it's now. Either Cuthbert is an average manager that's slowly inproving or he's absolutely useless and incapable of getting the best out of this squad - I don't know which but ham I to argue with Tomas O Se ? Both sides will protect their FB lines - who'll counter attack better ? I don't see a lot of clean fielding so a lot will depend on breaking ball - have we got the men to compete in this area ? I'd rate both defences and forwards as pretty equal - Kerry have an edge at MF but AOC and Maguire could give us parity - it's a big ask but ........ The major difference is on the side-line and we are way off the pace in this respect - how much will that impact on our chances ? More questions than answers but there is some hope IMO.

You seem to forget maguire has hardly any football or training done recently and you want a rusty player with serous injury to partner player once was great Alan o Connor but no league fitness training behind him and won't last a fully game yet take on kerry who have four outstanding options at midfield

commonsense. wrote: » Next week's minor game is important no doubt. But not bigger than Cork/Wexford. A loss in Wexford Park would heap more pressure on the lame duck that is CCB. Would be great if minors could progress and I think they have a great chance. I reckon Limerick will be improved on their April performance but I'm anticipating a huge step up from Cork. As you say there are good hurlers in this group, too many for Limerick to contain on this occasion I feel.
