If tipp are to get to the final they've 2 games in 1 week and then a 4 week break to the final, Munster council have had a mare arranging fixtures for this.

It will be an interesting competition this year, on one hand you have people saying Kerry are the only team who might beat Dublin on the other they are a team in transition and will be coming in cold against Clare who are always tough to beat. No matter the pedigree of underage success it still takes some time when making that step up. Could be a great chance for Clare and tipp to get a Munster, tipp having a potential 3 home games and Clare with 1 game under their belts before facing Kerry. Cork too obviously being clear 2nd favourites in the betting. It would be great to see a new winner but at the end of the day, you can almost guarantee another Kerry win

How many would that be for Kerry  80?
Cork must have around 40 and would the rest have 10 between them?

Tipp have 9 munsters and 4 all Ireland's, I don't know what anyone else has. It's tough when you're in with the most successful team in football and a usually very good 2nd best in Munster.

Senior and under 20 for sure, minor being a new age group it's hard to know but their dominance at schools level you'd have to imagine so. They'll beat tipp easily tonight

Pretty sure it was a club championship anyway for a while . Remember reading Bray emmets all Ireland victory is down as a Dublin victory yet they play in wicklow . Must of played in Dublin at the time im guessing.  On that point an awful lot of them Dublin all ireland pre heffo were teams made up of a lot of culchies ,teachers and cops who didnt travel home in them days.

Not necessarily the case that Kerry and Cork meet. Limerick playing Tipp in a playoff and if they win, they cannot face Clare again so Clare/Limerick and Cork/Kerry will have to be redrawn for the semi finals.

Bit of a nuts system. The Cork v Waterford game the other night for example is utterly pointless and did nothing for either team or development of football in either county.

And yet if Tipp beat Limerick, they'll face Waterford for a chance to play Clare in a semi final. So you get a right tonking off Kerry, and then have a back door route through Limerick, Waterford and Clare, whereas poor Cork and Kerry's reward for winning is a straight knockout against each other. Mental.

*disclaimer, I am in no way assuming that Tipp will win those 3 games. This is not a very strong Tipp minor side.

Kerry will walk Munster tbh, and that's not bias talking. There's nobody getting near them based on seeing the players involved at u16. Cork are weak enough at this grade also.
The whole system is a mess though.

Post by: AZOffaly on April 13, 2018, 11:07:59 AM
I think you're right. Certainly from what I've seen, Tipp will be a little closer next year, and should be competitive the year after, but Kerry have been far ahead in most of the development squads for the last 4 or 5 years.

Yeah, but to be fair, if they can get over Waterford sans injury, they'll have a bit of momentum. Cork will be undercooked.

If we had the two week break like we should have had then cork would still be undercooked and we'd have time to get rid of any knocks and concentrate 100% on cork.

1 week is loads of time to concentrate on Cork. I guarantee you they're concentrating on Cork since the draw was made. As for knocks, yes there is that, but that's why I said 'sans injury'.

And that reason alone should be enough to give us an appropriate time between games like every other county gets. Baring replays when would the last time any county in provincial championship played two games in 1 week? Maybe it's more common than I think? Does it happen in the early rounds of Leinster  (genuine question).

Cork match is what will probably define our year, win and we are 1 game away from super 8's and in a Munster final, lose and we've the 3 rounds of qualifiers to get through.

Will be interesting to see how that goes. More games for all teams is good for that grade but i see Leitrim have already voiced their opinion saying its a system that favours the counties with a bigger pick.

You are correct...Munster GAA website updated today (they must read this board) with the following "In the event Limerick qualify for the Semi-Final, they cannot play Clare as repeat pairings are not allowed in the semi-finals. In that scenario, Cork will play Limerick and Kerry will play Clare."

They should look at two groups of three, guaranteeing everybody two games, top 2 to semifinal.  The two strongest teams will be in the final, even if in the same group of three initially.

Leitrim not mentioned in fixtures, although I note Ros/Rhubarbs listed as quarter final (meaning the winner plays somebody in the semi and only Leitrim can be that opponent as Galway play Sligo in the other semi). 

Hard work following the juniors.

He looked like a class act who could kick scores with both feet as was the Kerry lad with the fuzzy hair, think he was called Paul Walsh? I thought both teams looked big for their age when you compared them to the lads in the Roscommon v Mayo game. Kerry's minor teams in recent years have been bigger than everyone else.

It is a terrible format but there's something nice about it when for years everyone complained about seeding in Munster where last year's finalist got a bye into semi and couldn't meet until the final, no moaning from Frank about that. Hopefully senior and minor formats change, both need to for fairness

I'm nervous about Waterford although by all accounts things are not going great down there. They gave a big performance against Cork last year and I feel there is a slight danger Tipp are looking past them. To be honest if Tipp have designs on  munster title they should be able to look past Waterford but you don't want to be completely switched off. Tipp aren't good enough yer to do things like that.

I'm not nervous and that's not to be confused with cocky. If the game was in fraher field they are a different animal but in semple should take them comfortably enough. Reports bad coming out of waterford, I'm sure they'll sit in with everyone behind the ball and do a contain and take it from there job like against cork.

People are making far too much of tipp and Kearns giving out about the 6 day turnaround for the cork game, saying it's looking past waterford and being disrespectful. For me it's not, if we beat waterford today it's far too late then for anything to be done about the cork fixture, it had to be said early if there was any hope of a change to the potential fixture. Will be a massive own goal by Munster I imagine if tipp win today, clashing with champions league final now there'll probably be 500 at it

No idea...Munster Council made the change in early April.  If Waterford won, it would have been a double header on 3 June, so it must be Tipp football that didn't want to share the spotlight...assuming participating counties are allowed have an opinion. 


Or did Cork football not want to share?


















Or is it just about the money for the Munster Council?

Its ridiculous and massively embarrassing for munster CCC to be shown up treating it like this. They are saying they dont want clashes to affect supporters but thats a load of shite. the first change they made with this was to change it from the saturday night to the sunday which was just accommodating the cork fans so the match wasnt clashing with their game the saturday night with limerick but now it clashed with tipp waterford on the sunday so this whole thing of wanting to be fair to the fans just doesnt stack up. And how does giving the players 1 week between games being fair on them. To top it all off Tipp and cork playing in the same venue the next day, I guarentee if the game goes ahead saturday evening at 7 clashing with the champions league final there will be a very small crowd at it, Since they are insisting its going ahead next week why now have it at 4pm after the hurling and minor hurling games, there will be an awful lot more would stay on after the hurling than will be there saturday night for a stand alone game and even at that its still only the best solution to an awful position the powers that be have put themselves in

Huge problem here aswell to be honest was the Cork board are completely hurling oriented. They don't give a sh*t about football, so eveey fixture revolves around "what suits hurling"..and of course, Jerry O'Sullivan the current chairman in Munster is A Cork hurling man. He'll do whatever Frank below says.

I wouldn't always agree with Liam Kearns and managers often have rants to cover their own incompetence, but he is spot on in that Tipp FM interview. This should not have happened with this fixture. I actually think it may be an added motivation to Tipp now though and I expect them to win.

Whatever about playing next weekend, I find it incredible that nobody has said 'Why not play it with the hurling on Sunday?'. Semple will have to be opened two days in a row. There'll be Cork fans and Tipp fans there 2 days in a row. (Maybe not the same fans, but fans from those counties).  Both games are run under the auspices of the Munster Council. It just seems to make so much sense to have the Minor Hurling at 12, the Senior Hurling at 2, and the Senior Football at 4. I just don't get it.

In the absence of the competing counties coming to an agreement, Munster CCC fixes the date for them. 

Initial date for both football semi finals was Saturday 2 June, which would clash with Cork hosting Limerick in the hurling.  Kerry and Clare agreed to switch to Sunday 3 June, when Tipp and Waterford hurlers meet in Limerick.  Clare hurlers have a bye 2/3 June weekend.

Hard to believe nobody mention doubling up in Thurles next Sunday, as claimed in the article.

Whats more amazing is instead of standing firm when both teams couldnt agree to the 2nd or 3rd the munster CCC clearly bowed to Corks wishes. What started all this is cork limerick hurling was moved to saturday because of the cork city marathon on sunday. They then changed Tipp cork to sunday which clashed with tipp waterford hurling (so the fact they made this change shows it wasnt the dual fans who were in their minds while fixing these). How could anyone in the munster CCC actually come out and say a 6 day turn around was the best solution. The game should be going ahead Saturday the 2nd of june no questions. The first the 26th was mentioned im led to believe was the night of the vote. Its a disgrace this fixture and them trying to justify it is laughable.

Has nobody told Cork the number for championship games is 26. When did Aidan Walsh return to the footballers? he was terrible against Mayo last year and Cork only improved and pushed Mayo all the way when Walsh was taken off.

I'd say they named Kerrigan at 27 as non-playing captain  (he's a good few weeks off being back from what I heard.)

Looking at this lineup gameplan will be to drop bodies back and try and hit Tipp on the break.
Wouldn't be surprised if Loughrey was a late switch in the backs.

Walsh was back with the footballers last year - definitely a gamble playing him, being picked for performances 5 year ago.

No Donncha O'Connor, which is a bit surprising, especially given there isn't exactly a world of experience in the 26 named.
That's a lot of bang average footballers in that 26, I'd be gobsmacked if Cork make the summer 8s.

Tipp deservedly favourites for this, even if Sweeney is doubtful.

Thats a decent bench Cork have, not so sure about the starting 15 though. Sherlock in the little I've seen of him reminds me of Andy Moran.

From what I've seen of Cork the last few years that looks like the worst Cork team I've seen the last 30 years.

Sherlock does look like he has it, but I heard he wasn't going great in training which was why O'Neill starts. For me he is the one player on the bench with a serious chance of making an impact. I think that is a weak Cork bench overall.

Not wrong about it being the worst Cork team in the last 30 years.

If Tipp want to be taken seriously as contenders they need to be winning this without too much bother.

I don't think there's any provision in the rules for a replacement (there is a provision for replacing goalkeepers, if there is an injury) in a situation like this so Cork will be down a man on the sub's bench.

Possibly a rule that needs changing for circumstances like this?

The real issue with Kearns complaints wasn't the 6 day turnaround, it was that an extra week would have meant two important players would have been that bit fitter.
The Waterford game was grand preparation, a chance to fine tune things before the real stuff. Cork would have been playing an A v B game at around the same time. But perhaps it got into the Tipp lads' heads, or maybe as you say it was simply a bad day at the office.

A real WTF result even now when i look at the Cork team that started as it wasn't strong on paper and they had some of their better players subs. That was like the Tipp of old, question is can they pick the chins off the floor and recover in the qualifiers now ?

I was at the Waterford game and despite scoring 20 Points something in the Tipp play seemed off , a lack of cohesion I suppose . Plenty of work for Tipp to do in the next month but they are decent Players and I expect us to rally !

I think everyone was fully correct to think that, look at Corks results and performances the last 3 years or so, theyve been awful. Brilliant performance against mayo which the lost and big win last night they are the only two games that spring to my mind league or championship they performed to their reputation so id have to disagree that there was anything to show or suggest cork were a top 8 team.

That was one of the worst displays weve given in a very very long time. First and foremost playing this match one week after we had to play waterford was a disgrace and should never have happened and munster ccc should be ashamed but make no mistake about it that turnaround had no bearing what so ever on the result. We were awful, there were no positives at all to take. It was performance that came out of the blue, we have great potential but theres alot of work to be done between now and the qualifier, I just cant see us being as bad again. Cork were good but we also made them look better than they are, it would be great for the championship to see them beat kerry (providing they get over clare) in the munster final as its badly needed. We have to shake off that match and go again

He's got plenty of talent but his decision making at times is awful which in fairness should improves as he matures. Lets hope Cork can put it up to Kerry next month.

Pleased to hear Colm O'Neill's injury isn't too serious, clearly not the player he was but still has some record of scoring goals.

A serious side still without the 2 seniors. Donegal and Galway are probably best placed to compete with them. Kildare and Meath would be a level below while Dublin if they get going will improve more than their Leinster compatriots. Cork might do something but rarely do these days.

They are too, I hadn't realised their championship was so far ahead. Galway were strong at minor the last couple of years. The winner of Roscommon and Mayo will warrant respect but will do well to compete with that Kerry team.

No disagreement there. Kerry have a seriously strong pool of players to pick from at u20 level. Armagh look hamstrung in the final due to suspensions, and the Derry squad are very young, only 3 not eligible for next year's u20 campaign, so even getting to a provencial final is quare going.

Leinster is interesting this year, well worked and credit to Leinster GAA.

We have two quarter-finals this weekend Carlow v Kildare on Friday night, which I hope to pop down to, always enjoy a game after work on a Friday, and Offaly v Westmeath.

The semi-finals should be Meath v Offaly and Kildare v Dublin.

If Kildare beat Dublin I think they will beat Meath in the final, if Dublin beat Kildare I think Meath will win it. Not the strongest Dublin team but Dublin always get stronger as the competition progresses but I think Kildare's momentum will be pretty good going into the semi, unless of course Carlow stack everyone behind the ball and have a 100% accuracy and Kildare crash out Friday.

He laid the bill off then purposefully took out the Kerry defender... it was a great call by the ref.

Fair enough, I didn't catch what Collins did. But the man who hung out of Maguire got away with it. And then he throws it up.
My mother could have reffed that game today yet the ref has made an arse of it. Not that the result would be any way different. But that's not the point.

Leinster and ulster winners together in Super 8.

No mention of neutral venues in Super 8 rules.

Provincial champions play each other in Croke Park. Qualifiers play each other in Croke Park.

Other games played on home and away basis.

If Cork had beaten Kerry today, like looked possible for 7 minutes, then Dublin would likely have had to travel to Killarney in Super 8.

If Mayo win next qualifier then draw and beat Cork in R4, Dublin will travel to Castlebar. Assuming Dubs beat Laois.

Could be. A lot will depend on the draw on Monday.

True but with Monaghan, Mayo, Tyrone, Roscommon still alive and the possibility of four very good provincial champions there's cause for optimism. If Monaghan, Mayo, Tyrone and Roscommon come through the qualifiers then only Dublin would be sure of a semi final spot IMO. Mind you I think Kerry would make it too but wouldn't be guaranteed.

Kerry will probably rack up another easy win in that one too.

You'd wonder what happened to those Cork U21 teams that had the measure of Kerry

There was no real natural forward on the cork team, nor decent midfielder

Kerry look like All Ireland champions in waiting this year, outstanding group of players they have now.

Appointing manager after manager who's not up to the job doesn't help and neither does the lack of a level playing field with their hurlers.

They've won 10 out of the previous 14 u21 titles in the province so it can't be a lack of talent, their is something seriously wrong.

Munster Junior Football Final:

Kerry 2-14 Cork 1-15 in Tralee.

Kerry opened with 1-1 in the first two minutes, but Cork recovered to lead by a point at half time (0-11 to 1-7).  Cork goaled very early in the second half, but Kerry raised a green flag after quarter of an hour to level matters at 2-10 to 1-13.

Teams were still level with about 6 minutes left at 2-11 to 1-14, but Kerry kicked the next three points to open a gap.   A late Cork point couldn't save the game for the rebels.
