    Great minor game. Couple of SARS goals kept them ahead but once the Barrs got motoring in the second half, there was only ever going to be one winner. Barrs in particular have a few beautiful hurlers with such a strong family history aswell, Kennedy, Doolin, Cunningham to name but a few.

    Cork minors will be hard to beat.

    Not the best nickname in the current climate

    Aghabullogue would be one of the strongest teams in IAFC over the last 5 years and I had them winning that handy.
    Mitchelstown blitzed Kinsale in the first 10 minutes, has 1-6 on the board. Brian Coughlan scored a sublime volley that would have been a goal of the month contender on Match of the Day for Kinsale's 2nd.
    Glanworth beating Kilshannig was a shock to me. Rockchapel/Ballinora was one that could go either way.

    Yeah my football knowledge was stretched a bit on these predictions alright - I will admit I though St Michael's v Eire Og was a real toss of a coin, never pictured that.

    Yeah, I'd have thought that game was a point either way. I'm from Mitchelstown and my wife is Aghabullogue so I'd have seen a huge amount of intermediate football the last few years. Preparing for the upcoming civil war of the semi-final :D

    Assuming the Boylans of Lim/NaP are added to UCC hard to see Blackrock beating them.
    Glen to beat a gritty but v limited EO side.

    Kanturk's physicality to grind down Charleville.
    Fr ONeills to beat Newcestown pulling up.


    Dont know enough on the other matches.

    Bit mad that UCC can parachute in players on a whim like that. And a bit mad too that lads can potentially win senior hurling championships in two different counties in the same year.

    Having said that there can't be much of a bond between a group of lads cobbled together like that. And I don't imagine it means that much to them. But I wouldn't put a win beyond them simply based on the amount of players they have available to them based on a stupid rule.

    Final thought - it'd be a shame if a league of nations outfit were to knock out one of the aristrocats of Cork club hurling at such a crucial stage in the championship. And a Glen/UCC final would be such a non-event.

    Harsh; hardly cobbled together when they have been in college together for the 3-4 years it takes to finish their degree; plenty of Cork lads on the team as well, and they have won Fitzgibbon already this year; as a team, it is less cobbled together than a divisional team where you could have lads on it for a decade or longer

    You unwittingly captured the absurdity of the situation. They won a Fitz this year and are allowed participate in a club competition. Enough said.

    I am highlighting that they haven’t been “cobbled together” like an all-star team, or like Imokilly

    City hurling final tomorrow - Passage vs Brian Dillons.
    Passage going for the double after winning the football last week.
    Dillons beaten in last two finals, hoping to beat their county demons once and for all with an ageing team.
    Should be a cracker. It’s live on Passage’s facebook at 4pm.
