    Your thinking that Cork who couldnt beat Kilkenny, the very team that dismantled them today and the team you are dismissing as not been as well disposed at beating Limerick is glaringly flawed.

    Its a championship and today was a knock out game. You might need to brush up on that.

    Laois haven't dropped the heads since the red anyway. It's driven them on if anything. They're still in it.

    Struck sounds a lot worse than it was. Tapped more like. Probably accidentally too considering they were both pulling out of each other.

    Yeah struck may be harsh, but it was deliberate. Had thought was an accident but it was certainly deliberate.

    P. Maher goes down very easily for a perceived hard man

    Was a nothing tussle and Dunphy swung back with the hurley, connected across the knees. Literally left the ref with no choice

    A flick across the thigh and Maher goes down like he'd been shot.
    A yellow at most.

    A deliberate strike is a red though, the reaction of the player doesn't matter

    It does matter.

    It's pathetic and embarrassing.

    Point out in the rulebook where it says a pathetic and embarrassing reaction means a strike is a yellow there.

    He was caught on the knee, seemed like it'd be the sort that'd sting a lot. He went down for a few seconds and got some ice on it.

    This is a very poor Tip team. Playing 14 man Laois for half the game and only 10 points up.
    Considering that it's Laois 3rd game in 3 weeks, they're walking around the field and still Tip can't put a sheen on it.

    Would very much worry how tipp will cope with the intensity from Wexford. Obviously won't be as complacent, but a lot to worry about

    I didn't refer to the rulebook, seeing a bigger picture. Sportsmanship always matters.

    But if Enid Blyton did hurling commentary...

    I'd say Michael Rice could tell you a thing or two about what would sting a lot. Rolling around like a primadonna, not so much.

    Laughable behaviour from the hard chaw.

    But the ref can only apply the rulebook. I think he went down a bit easily, but it would sting.

    No idea what Michael rice had to do with it, didn't see him on the teamsheets today

    I suspect they’ve been told to hit the deck for any little knock.

    Wex Vs Tipp should be good. If Tipp don't improve from today I'd fancy Wexford to win. Kk Vs limerick is a 50/50 game as far as I'm concerned. Limerick should do it on form but as Cork learned today, KK must always be considered capable of beating anyone on any given day.

    Make simulation punishable if that's the case but hitting someone with a hurley is a red.



    What happened the loais lad that he was left on the ground?

    Limerick will eat KK if they aren't more mobile than vs cork

    Limerick have a half forward line built for war. They will fight for every ball. Cork had at least 2 Loose ball merchants in their half forward line starting today, not to mention a weak enough back 6. The Limerick back 6 are a serious unit. I fancy Wexford to beat Tipp in other match

    Can't believe the lack of urgency from Cork. They just downed tools for much of the game, too wrong options galore. Too many of the same type of player. They are as far from winning an All Ireland title as any time in recent years. Thought the game was sub-standard in the context of potential All-Ireland winners. If Limerick bring their A game they'll do serious damage to Kilkenny but then again the same could have been said of Cork.

    i imagine this will be the main talking point right up to when the ball is thrown in

    tipp dont have the same shape about themselves since the group stage of the championship

    As a neutral at the game, Cork were awful with their puck outs. Nash hit short pucks as he didn't trust his half forwards to win the ball and he was right, they were all taken off. However his short pucks to the corner backs usually ended in them putting the ball down a blind alley. Why the line didn't attempt to change this was baffling. Full forward line had the winning of ball when they did play cross field ball into them, KK couldn't hold them. KK won it at the start of the 2nd half, Cork just folded.

    KK still aren't playing great but i feel they've a good chance against Limerick. Cody will have a plan and Limerick will be hot favourites.

    Tipp couldn't win today as it they hammered Laois, it was expected and if they barely beat them, they were poor. Laois had a plan and stuck to it but ran out of steam in the second half. Felt the ref was very fussy too which annoyed Laois. The second half was a challenge match level but fair play to Laois, if they stick together they have a good chance of staying up next year.

    I expect Wexford/Tipp to be a ripper.
