Looking forward to this match in the refurbished stadium. Will be tight, always is between these two. Kerry definitely have the forwards to put up scores. Can their back line and midfield cut out the flow to the Cork forwards thou? Think first half could be tight but Kerry to pull away in 2nd half. Just think they have to much fire power up front. Want to see Paul Geaney, JOD and Clifford mix it up with Cork back line. NarrowBack914 (USA) - Posts: 181 - 23/06/2018 12:43:23 2113870 Link 0 |
Kerry. Quite easily I feel. Cork have a few injuries. Kerry will want to make a statement. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 23/06/2018 12:53:13 2113873 Link 1 |
Kerry will win this one. I think that they will be in very good shape going into the super 8s this year. Donegalman (None) - Posts: 3830 - 23/06/2018 13:38:22 2113882 Link 1 |
So true The_Fridge. With Galway already through to Super 8s, the winner of this will face them first round i do believe. Kerry will not want to lose this to their neighbors, but i think it'll be closer then people think. I know Cork have those few injuries, but for bragging rights and being each others main rivals, think we are in for a good match. Hope so anyway. An easy win for Kerry doesn't serve them well going into Super 8s. Plus a strong Cork in Munster forces Kerry to up their game. For me, i hope JOD can stay healthy and push on from here.

On the road to Cork, there's something very special about Kerry v Cork in a Munster final. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 23/06/2018 13:57:31 2113884 Link 1 |

The reality is players like Jamie O'Sullivan, the O'Driscoll brothers are not inter County football standard players. They have proven this over and over again. There are big question marks over others like Kevin. Crowley and Ruairí Deane. They had potential, possibly still have it but the sands of time are very nearly gone for them too. Kevin Flahive and Sam Ryan, the Whitesare very promising but as yet we know very little about them at this level. Luke Connolly, Tomás Clancy and Ian Maguire are our best players. They are the most consistent anyway. With a better supporting cast, they would be far more prominent and people would see the best of them. At the end of the day, Kerry are miles ahead. We have not beaten them in a knock out match in 19 years at senior. Tonight is not knock out either. The winning margin depends on Kerrys approach. The result, alas, is as much a foregone conclusion is it is relevant. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 23/06/2018 14:51:30 2113898 Link 0 |
The handicap in this match is only four points. I do expect us to win and hopefully win well. However we are inexperienced at the moment in many areas of the pitch. If Cork put us under a bit of pressure early then you never know what will happen. Foregone conclusion it certainly isnt. KY4SAM2015 (Kerry) - Posts: 898 - 23/06/2018 14:59:42 2113900 Link 0 |
On paper it should be a reasonably comfortable Kerry win but the PUC factor might make cork raise their game. I honestly can't see them getting enough scores to win though. If I was Cork I would get stuck in to our young lads and see how they cope, that's the only way I can see them getting a result as I think Kerry have too much football for cork at the moment. They played well v Tipp though, so perhaps they'll surprise us. GeniusGerry (Kerry) - Posts: 2105 - 23/06/2018 15:44:14 2113905 Link 0 |

Both teams tearing one another's defence to shreds in the first 10 minutes. Dubsfan28 (Dublin) - Posts: 2509 - 23/06/2018 19:12:10 2113935 Link 0 |
This is Gaelic football at its best both teams going for it, best game in the world when played like this. No defensive boring bs. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 23/06/2018 19:14:43 2113936 Link 0 |

Never a black card not even a free or nothing , jesus it does your head in. And 12 for Cork was having a good game. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 23/06/2018 19:36:17 2113947 Link 2 |
Another display of why Munster has traditionally been the most one sided province in Football championship. Dubh_linn (Dublin) - Posts: 2312 - 23/06/2018 19:37:09 2113948 Link 3 |
Black card destroys a game , it doesn't enhance it. It had the makings of a half decent game but really Cork are way out of their depth. Munster football is a complete borefest. No other county in Munster gives a fiddlers and can't even slow Kerry down. It's nearly as bad as Leinster. PeggyShippen (Limerick) - Posts: 300 - 23/06/2018 19:49:36 2113952 Link 0 |
