Yes..Bennybunny might be a bit negative, but his posts are well researched and informative. Everyone is entitled to opinion. Rockies (Cork) - Posts: 947 - 21/05/2016 15:41:17 1857025 Link 0 |

Ah lads there is way too much negativity here and Ormondebanner hasn't posted. This is typical with Tipp after a defeat, everything is wrong, panel in-fighting etc. Everyone had on authority two years ago that Eoin Kelly would start in goals. Hopefully most of the stuff people are hearing is tall tails. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 21/05/2016 15:51:25 1857028 Link 0 |

Will be a good place to try out Cork's strategy. Will employ a sweeper (from midfield (Egan) ..2 half forwards (Lawton and Cooper) will drop back...Pat Horgan out in half forward line with Lehane..leaving 2 full forwards...Harnedy and Cadogan Rockies (Cork) - Posts: 947 - 21/05/2016 16:04:41 1857030 Link 0 |

Looking forward to the game tomorrow but must admit i do feel we are up against it yes we have beaten tipp before as underdogs but in this day and age shocks are a rare. i really hope after the game i can wear my shirt with pride one way or the other a real hiding tomorrow could set us back for many years,we have a good forward line but cahalane is a liability and god if callahan gets loose it could be a nightmare,still i will be there roaring us on come on cork monkstownrebel1 (Cork) - Posts: 351 - 21/05/2016 18:42:43 1857081 Link 0 |

4 debutants for Tipp just shows that we a team very much in transition. Without primary ball winners in the half forward line I don't expect us to b within a score of cork come the end. Off to the game now fingers crossed we show up . WildPundit (Tipperary) - Posts: 1709 - 22/05/2016 10:30:16 1857194 Link 0 |

Don't over react lad. There are plenty of people not going and they don't need me telling them either way. There are club games on around the county today with plenty of passionate Cork GAA people in attendance. I went out to Ballincollig last night for Ballymartle v Grenagh (just for a look - not involved with either) and there were plenty of people out there that had very little interest in today's game - there were of course people that had interest aswell. The point is, today's game has little or no significance. The winner gains no advantage - particularly if the winner is Cork given how or season ended the last two years. Win or lose today, the judgement day for Cork is going to be in an All-Ireland quarter final or semifinal against a big team in a true knockout championship game. After the hammerings of the last two years, question marks are going to hang over this team until we can prove that we are not psychologically scarred from those defeats? You know that Eddie. Winning Munster is completely irrelevant as we won it just before the Tipp game in 14 and didnt win it last year but got hammered in both. As I said in the last post, today is a lost opportunity in terms of team selection as it looks like we are going to the well with the same group (starting 15 - i am happy to see new subs). That is a pity as there are good young lads on the bench - throwing them in 'that' game in July/August will be risky. If you are going to the game, enjoy it. I respect your passion for Cork hurling. Cork will play Tipperary in June 30 in the Munster minor hurling semifinal and they will play Limerick two days earlier in the under 21 championship. Both games are in Pairc Ui Rinn. Both games are competitive knockout season defining games. I will be at both of them. Today though - no thanks. Enjoy it though. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 22/05/2016 10:51:29 1857200 Link 0 |

What I like about it too Tiobraid is we have some very experienced players to spring from the bench. That should help if it's a tight match at the end. I completely agree about O'Meara, reminds me of a young Corbett that management can't seem to use properly. I love the way he ghosts in at the last minute to win a puckout from behind the opposition back. That's incredibly difficult to defend against. Like Corbett too he has explosive pace.

Ah Benny there is a lot of negativity there but I see your point all the same. I still think a team should try to win every game they play to create a winning culture. The minor match on the 20th is extremely important for both sides. Your minors look extremely strong this year. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 22/05/2016 14:11:37 1857278 Link 0 |

i think bennybunny was the lucky one staying at home,his opinions on the importance of the game(29000 attendance) were surely vindicated.no atmosphere cork looking like a junior team with no game plan...tipp went through the motions in 3rd gear...a game to forget with no relevance to later in the year..as loughnanne says real championship hurling only starts in august..the rest is just the gaa gathering money!!

Tipp were way to good for a poor excuse for a Cork team.The big tests are ahead for Tipp, probably in a Munster final against Clare or Waterford. Barnowl94 (Galway) - Posts: 3150 - 23/05/2016 17:04:36 1857862 Link 0 |

cork need to ditch those tactics, and fast! they have some excellent forwards who are living off scraps because of players dropping deep and looking totally unsure of what they are doing back there. Even when they needed to throw caution to the wind and go for it towards the end they still had their sweeper employed deep which was a joke. Tipp cruised to victory without being asked any real questions and it's hard to judge where they're at after that really. they have a really talented squad but they need to show a little more killer instinct in the inside forward line.
