Cork, in one word....BRUTAL! No surprise there. Not taking from Waterford who were well capable of taking a Cork scalp this evening. The dogs of the road know this manager is well out of his depth for inter-county duty but players have to stand up and be counted when you have to depend on a player in the twilight of his career to come to the rescue. The League proved exactly where Cork currently stand, Div 2 or even Div 3. eaglehaslanded (Cork) - Posts: 135 - 27/05/2017 20:55:55 1991304 Link

We were on a hiding to nothing playing Waterford. The next day we'll be on hiding from Tipperary. Just as well as I am tired of hidings from Kerry. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 27/05/2017 22:15:54 1991322 Link

Things have to hit rock bottom in Cork before they get better. Everyone in Cork bar the County Board knew that Cleary should have got the job. No disrespect intended to Waterford but today's display by Cork was abject. Beyond embarrassing. corkcelt (Cork) - Posts: 4388 - 27/05/2017 22:54:26 1991328 Link

Nab Jack O'Connor from under their noses?? I couldn't see it happening but he'd be a serious coup for cork if they did manage it. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5009 - 28/05/2017 01:57:18 1991339 Link

Replying To DLlegends: "Don't get the whole Jack O' Connor thing." Well he looks to be set for a return to Kerry senior management from listening to any of the talk coming out of the kingdom. He must be doing something right! cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5009 - 28/05/2017 11:49:51 1991384 Link

Replying To cavanman47: "Well he looks to be set for a return to Kerry senior management from listening to any of the talk coming out of the kingdom. He must be doing something right!" Jack of connor is overated his time in Kerry coincided with a golden generation for the county. On the most recent evidence in charge of the 21's he has been average at best. He was tactically very poor against Galway. Liam Kearns should be given the chance rather than looking to the past. jacktheDub (Dublin) - Posts: 944 - 28/05/2017 13:11:27 1991407 Link

I wont be fooled, I expect them to beat a strong Tipp and then we will built up into something we are not I remember in 2006 Waterford were a missed penalty away from being level in Killarney with about 15 minutes to go before we just pulled away. Similarily in 2014 Kerry were absolute no-hopers going into PUC after barely beating Clare vice versa 12 months later when Cork should have won against all odds in Killarney Won't get fooled again....................
