Hurling 2025

[Dag Dog]

Easy win for Cork today. Their supporters are getting giddy and hopefully getting ahead of themselves!

[LarryStiles]

Cork for the hurling and Kerry for football are two foregone conclusions.

[johnnycool]

Tipp rolled over today, no fight whatsoever from them which may be an issue for Cahill and Bevans if they don't sort that out in two weeks time.

They could be looking at another year of not getting out of Munster and the game against Clare could be the one to seal their fate.

Cork look impressive, no doubt about that, they have probably the best marking corner back in the business in Sean O'Donoghue as young Darragh McCarty found out yesterday and their goal scoring ability is unreal.

How they get on in Ennis will tell us more about their real credentials, I do expect them to come out of there with the win, but Clare will be marching into them in a physical manner a lot more than Tipp or anyone else has done in 2025 to date and we'll see how they cope with that.

Limerick and maybe Kilkenny will be looking for chinks in their armour for later in the year.

The preseason run outs are over now, time for the real stuff

[Cortoon]

Cork are now 11/8 All Ireland favourites with Paddy Power.

O'Donoghue is a liability, there are plenty better corner-backs than him in the game. Too indisciplined and partial to getting sent off, e.g. last year v Clare. One of the few weak links in the side IMO.

There's not another county in the country wouldn't take him in a heartbeat.

Easily one of the stand out players in their team this year and probably the best in his position in the country at the moment.

Tipp got a bit of a cruel lesson.

Few opportunities to run in for goal attempts in the early stages which they turned down and took a point, Cork down the other end with the same kind of opportunity went for the jugular and finished the chances with goals. Seems to be something they have worked on and it is so effective.

[LarryStiles]

Cork with goal. Game over already.  Cork justifying the hype. Limerick won't get near them.

[Wildweasel74]

Ref double booking men especially the Clare corner back a sign he loosing control of the game.Cork are a unlikeable outfit.

[Armagh18]

Embarassing dive that

[Wildweasel74]

Cork should  won this easy, but there macho approach and both teams continously off the ball shoving and pushing cost them the game.They were 12 up and couldn't hold there displince. Ref played for a draw here too.

[gallsman]

Some weekend for the Rebels 

That one will feel like a loss for sure. Thought McInerney was fouled before the final free in for Cork.

I bet you didn't think this would be proved wrong so quickly!

[Capt Pat]

What a game. The Munster championship can't be beat. I can't beleive Clare came back from 13 points down in that game.

[Milltown Row2]

It's immense, the sheer determination by Clare who were pretty toothless all league, brought about a performance that would grace the last day of the Hurling championship
