Cork are a funny team. So inconsistent.

But when you look at their team player by player they have some great man markers; loads of pace a strong midfield and 3 or 4 scoring forwards. Not sure on their keeper options though.

So the ingredients are there for a top side; just waiting on them to deliver on a consistent basis.

Quote from: SouthOfThe Bann on May 22, 2024, 11:51:24 PMKerry v Meath and Derry v Armagh both on RTE in round 2

Cavan v Dublin and Roscommon v Mayo on GAA Go.

A disgrace that Cork v Donegal not on GAA go.

Id have it ahead of all those games bar Derry v Armagh.

Can understand why Mayo Roscommon will be shown ahead of it but it was already televised this year and was an atrocious watch.


Kerry v Meath would be the surprise selection for me.  Mayo v Roscommon and Derry v Armagh would be among the first choice picks for both RTE and GAAGO. 

Cavan v Dublin will be a massacre though.

Cork could really put it up to Donegal in a packed Pairc Ui Rinn.

They tend to play better there.

Quote from: SouthOfThe Bann on May 22, 2024, 02:28:08 PMIf Armagh replicate their performance from the first 55 mins of the Ulster Final I think they could beat Derry with a bit to spare, especially if Derry's injuries dont clear up.

A lot of ifs and buts though.

Think they play for 77+ mins in games these days

Derry only played for 22 the last day.

They have a bit to go.

Portugal are another side with an incredible squad.

Whether Martinez can get the best out of them is another question.

And is Ronaldo a hindrance?

Are the rumours true about a row in the Derry camp when they went to Portugal or is it just fabrication?

Was there not something in Offaly hurling this year where Kilcormac Killoughey had a vote on whether they'd have 2 teams in senior this year.

Since they won intermediate this year.

Quote from: FermGael on May 12, 2024, 11:52:27 AMThe issue with the Tailteann is , as predicted , coverage and publicity .

Could the gaa not trial playing this competition on a Friday night and see what crowds it attracts plus get TG4 to cover it ?

Surely it's worth a try because I have the distinct feeling it's dying on its arse .

Clubber or a similar streaming service should have rights to all games in this competition similar to what they have for the Joe McDonagh Cup.

Incredible from London.

Fermanagh moving well too.

Meath absolutely toothless.

Absolutely no composure shown.

Could have won that by 5 or 6 at the end.

Tyrone should make light work of the semi and final.

Not being smart here but one of the lads from the Meath team that was interviewed had as strong a Dublin accent than I've heard from any Dublin player in a long time.

Is the Dublin Meath border where Meaths football stronghold is now?

If Down had a free taker or a forward of any use they'd have won that game with ease.

Armagh atrocious.

Armagh v Down - DOWN to win 6-0 on penalties
