After your post about some poor wides I said there was another one and there were a couple more that you’d be excepting them to get. I agree it was a good save by the Galway keeper.

zetecescort · 18-08-2021 8:30pm

After settling again after Galway got a run of scores. Gap went from 10 to 3 and now back out to 7. Galway turn to hit some poor wides

ShamoBuc · 18-08-2021 8:32pm

3-11 v 1-11 at the second water break.

Galway started very well as Cork forgot to come out of the dressing room. Galway with too many wides this half.

Cork woke up to get back to a healthy 6 point lead.

Again, ref seems to give Galway a few frees that Cork would not get, last Galway point was clearly a free out for too many steps.

ShamoBuc · 18-08-2021 8:35pm

Cahalane has a real turn of speed.

zetecescort · 18-08-2021 8:49pm

Finished the game strongly. Once we got through Galway's spell on top we kicked for home.

Well done to all involved

ShamoBuc · 18-08-2021 8:50pm

Cork 4-19 v 2-14 Galway

Back to back All Ireland U20 hurling titles !!!!!!

13 in total at this grade.

Super performance in essence. Wides go leor in the first half, third quarter was poor but at the end of the day it's the scoreline that matters.

An 11 point victory in an All Ireland final will do nicely!

Rebels Abú !!!!!!

Itssoeasy · 18-08-2021 8:54pm

One down two to go.

Mac_Lad71 · 18-08-2021 8:56pm

Congratulations to the Cork u-20's on a deserved victory.

Rebels Abu.

The White Feather · 18-08-2021 8:59pm

A great win for us!! A real team display and we didn't panic when they had their purple patch.

Some great prospects for the senior team there and it really adds to the Cork hurling feelgood factor.

Our new players are really showing no fear and really putting the pride back into Cork. They have a bit of swagger too which is great to see.

ACitizenErased · 18-08-2021 9:00pm

Fantastic. The gut in that Cork team is immense. Great start to the 3 finals.

Coneygree · 18-08-2021 9:23pm

That's some win.

The_Kew_Tour · 18-08-2021 9:24pm

Get in !!!!

lukin · 18-08-2021 9:29pm

Bit sloppy at the end leaving in the goal but got the job done so full credit to the team

dingle1969 · 18-08-2021 10:18pm

First leg of the 'Rebel Treble' completed.

A few serious players on that team that should ensure competition for places in the Senior panel next year

Rebel Quad doesnt sound as good but would be great to achieve nonetheless.

lukin · 19-08-2021 7:45am

The treble will be difficult to pull off; it's only ever been done twice I think; Cork did it in 1970 and Kilkenny in 2008. Cork were in all three finals in 1977 but only won one (the senior). I don't think it will put pressure on the seniors on Sunday if they are going into it needing to win to complete the treble.

Btw the minor footballers are still in the All-Ireland to so maybe you could call it a quadruple.

dingle1969 · 19-08-2021 9:24am

Quadruple doesn't rhyme 😀

At the end of the day it's Liam that matters most - the players won't be affected by the underage results. They're up against it as it is and they know it! I'd much rather a lower final win % ratio underage, finding the talent, and winning more Seniors. In saying that though, the manner and scorelines in our back to back U20 wins are very impressive. Good to see Cork getting back into the habit of dominating teams, long may it continue into the roaring 20s!

Speakerboxx · 19-08-2021 12:13pm

Only a fool would write off Cork v Limerick on Sunday. All week we are hearing how Cork haven't a hope against this physical Limerick side. That's the way we want it going into Sundays final. Keeping low under the radar. Keep praising the fine Limerick team and how they are going to win 5 in a row and 10 in a rows and how they are going to be unstoppable. Keep them coming.

einn32 · 20-08-2021 6:44am

It will be a very tight game as usual between these two. I can't call it. But if Limerick are to go on and be considered as one of the great teams then they have to win. It's all noise around them spread by the media. We've won two all Ireland's which is a great achievement but it would be nice to kick on. Looking forward to a might game of hurling!

lukin · 20-08-2021 7:31am

Just out of interest, what is the record of Cork posters here in All-Ireland finals (ones they have attended)? Mine is below. It's a significant one for me because if Cork win it will mean I have seen them win more AI's that ones they have lost. If they lose it is the opposite of course.

1987 football (lost)

1988 football (lost)

1989 football (won)

1990 football (won)

1990 hurling (won)

1992 hurling (lost)

1993 football (lost)

1999 hurling (won)

1999 football (lost)

2010 football (won)

Lost five (four in football and one in hurling)

Won five (three in football and two in hurling)

I missed the four finals the Cork hurlers were in from 2003 to 2006 because of financial constraints, the 2013 one I hadn't the season ticket that year so I couldn't get a ticket. So I haven't seen Cork hurler's win an All-Ireland since 1999. I am hoping that will be corrected on Sunday.

zetecescort · 20-08-2021 7:46am

1999 Hurling -won

2004 hurling - won

2009 football - lost

2010 football - won

2013 hurling - draw and lost

Been to a few camogie and ladies football finals too, more wins than defeats I think

FastFullBack · 20-08-2021 9:58am

1999 Hurling - Won

2003 Hurling - Lost

2004 Hurling - Won

2005 Hurling - Won

2007 Football - Lost

2009 Football - Lost

2010 Football - Won

2013 Hurling - Draw

2013 Hurling - Lost

4 wins, 4 loses and a draw. I was in Dublin in 2006 with a ticket, but wife got sick and had to go to hospital, so that's the only one I've missed since 99.

Mac_Lad71 · 20-08-2021 10:43am

1982 Hurling - Lost

1986 Hurling - Won

1988 Football - Draw

1989 Football - Won

1990 Hurling - Won

1990 Football - Won

1992 Hurling - Lost

1993 Football - Lost

2013 Hurling - Draw

2013 Replay - Lost.

4 Wins .. 4 Losses.. 2 Draws.

No ticket for this year.

Minor hurling team announced

thesultan · 20-08-2021 7:56pm

Read Dennis Coughlans book recently.. What happened to St. Nicks as a football club?

The White Feather · 20-08-2021 9:11pm

Here is the team for the Big One! Kingston starts with Barrett on bench. Eoin Cadogan in for Ger Mellerick

The White Feather · 20-08-2021 9:17pm

Cadogan starting a Senior final 11 years after he started the one against Down!!!

Not sure why you would think that. He has won on the big stage although it was in Football. Great experience for this young team

1990 Football Won

1992 Hurling Lost

1993 Football Lost

1999 Hurling Won

2004 Hurling Won

2005 Hurling Won

2007 Football Lost

2010 Football Won

2013 Hurling (went to draw game)

Was in a cast for 2003 hurling and worked abroad in 2006 so least I missed the two they lost. 2009 I had a stag that could not miss and 2013 replay just basically was in serious saving mode and had to not go.

Been to 1994, 2010 and 2017 Hurling finals too as well as 1998 and 2005 Football finals.

He hasn't been on the team for a couple of years and now at 35 he's deemed good enough

Nice concept. My record is very poor so hoping it’s a good thing I didn’t get a ticket for Sunday!

Won 2 - 04, 10

Drawn 1 - 13

Lost 6 - 99, 03, 06, 07, 09, 13

Can still remember the hurlers in 13 with the nerves in the final minute before their back got the point but it would have been a bit of a snatch and grab. The footballers left at least one all Ireland behind them in the late 2000s - just didn’t show up for the final.

Plenty of heartache but lucky to come from a county that can make so many finals.

sportsfan90 · 21-08-2021 12:43pm

Won (3): 2002 Camogie, 2005 Hurling, 2010 Football

Drew (1) : 2013 Hurling

Lost (5): 2003 Camogie, 2006 Hurling, 2007 Football, 2009 Football, 2013 Hurling

Just thinking back now how great it was especially around 2003 to 2010 to be in finals most years.

The White Feather · 21-08-2021 2:21pm

Just a reminder that the Cork football minors are in the semi final now on TG4. It starts at 2.30

Itssoeasy · 21-08-2021 2:43pm

Tyrone ahead by four points with 13 minutes gone.

The White Feather · 21-08-2021 2:44pm

Cork way too slow all over the pitch. Tyrone first to every ball and look hungrier so far.

Itssoeasy · 21-08-2021 2:45pm

a bit of good luck for cork when two Tyrone lads ran into each other.

ShamoBuc · 21-08-2021 2:47pm

5 v 2 down at the first water break, poor start but we are coming into it now.

ShamoBuc · 21-08-2021 2:50pm

Super save by Daniel Walsh.

ShamoBuc · 21-08-2021 2:52pm

Penalty,

Joke of a decision.

Fantastic defending by Cork. Awful decision.

Fantastic save yet again.

Outstanding!!

Itssoeasy · 21-08-2021 2:52pm

Penalty for Tyrone.

Itssoeasy · 21-08-2021 2:54pm

a bit of justice there that the penalty was saved because it was a very soft penalty.

The White Feather · 21-08-2021 2:54pm

My picture keeps freezing. Only seems to be TG4. Is this happening to anyone else?!!

Itssoeasy · 21-08-2021 2:56pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117784955#Comment_117784955

Freezing ? No it’s working like a charm on the tg4 player.

The White Feather · 21-08-2021 2:56pm

Ok its back !!

This game looks like it will nearly be over at half time

ShamoBuc · 21-08-2021 2:58pm

A very clear push in the back on our full forward as he kicked that ball. No free given.l

The White Feather · 21-08-2021 3:04pm

An abysmal first half. Tyrone look far hungrier and seem to have an extra man all the time.

Lot of bad passes from Cork giving possession away a lot Game is virtually over already

ShamoBuc · 21-08-2021 3:04pm

10 v 3 down at ht

Tyrone settled quickly but we've not settled really.
