cork brought O`Neill on but not at midfield, go figure? Donegal all over Cork there, oops there goes the crossbar, tough

Does anyone have a clue as to what Eoin Cadogan was giving out about there?

Noel O`Leary?? Cork have a poor half back line when they are put on the back foot and actually have to defend

Cork look very like the Tipp hurlers. So long the bridesmaids and they could only win one all Ireland.

Donegal's fitness levels are phenomenal....

many a good team won only 1 all ireland, quite a few poor teams managed to squeeze 1 too

Yeah, Cork just can't match them. Great to watch.

Cork should have won more.


Anyway if Mayo can beat the Dubs they must be in with a chance.

Right from the start cork were too ponderous instead of playing it in fast to a good full forward line, then they take off donncha - not counihan's greatest hour.

Some fitness levels displayed by DnG alright. Maybe only Dublin last year would be close to them in that respect.

Have to hand it to McGuinness, all those years in college paid off after all :)

Seem to get the jitters a wee bit when closing the game out though....

not bringing in O`Neill at midfield would be a bigger query fron the Cork point of view

Donegal's second ever AIF. They have a 100% record so far . Even better than Down now.

Cork looked like they ran out of ideas and energy. Fair play to Donegal, well deserved win.
