Cork should have to much power at midfield for Kerry.Alan O'Connor and Aidan Walsh are both better than Anthony Maher and Brian Sheehan.Sheehan is a good footballer but I think he's more a forward than a midfielder.

Can't wait to see some Kerry tears in two weeks  ;D

Jesus many's the Corkman has been caught out by cockiness going down there these past 16 or so years, I wouldn't be getting ahead of myself Corkman. Wouldn't imagine anything but a 10 point hammering or something ridiculous would cause many Kerry tears either, they'll just go away for a bit and sharpen their pikes for Croker.

I was wondering when was the last time either of these two teams hammered the other

Looks like ye have to go back to 1990. Is that right?

I used to hate that feeling when playing teams like Derry & Armagh that even if you beat them in Ulster ye know they could come back to haunt ye later. In 2005 we met Armagh 3 times. In the first two games I thought we were the better team but it was the 3rd game that we "stole" from them and that was the one that really mattered.

2005 AI semi Kerry 1-19 Langers 0-09
2007 AI Final Kingdom 3-13 Langers 1-9.
Will I go on...

Ok 4 AI semis & 2 AI finals all wins for the Kingdom.
They have not beat us in Killarney since 1995. That is the motivation this year.

36-7 I don't even get excited by big games with them anymore
2011: McGrath Cup
AI Junior Club
Hurling Christy Ring Cup

Have Kerry improved form last year? Their midfield is worse without a doubt. Even Limerick competed with them for spells at midfield whilst the other 12 players ran riot. I can't see a Kerry win here. If Cork click they could hammer them!

Galvin meant to be doubtful. Pulled hamstring in training

That will weaken their midfield even more

Conor Counihan has managed Cork in 21 championship matches so far..only 3 defeats all to Kerry.
The key to success is to be consistently competitive -- if you bang on the door often it will open
