All Ireland 2025 championships. Call it.

My impression of Cork is that when they are on they are awesome but deny them momentum and they can "spin their wheels".

They blitzed through the league with their goal scoring machine and looked invincible.  Then the second half against Clare they looked like mere mortals.

When I saw that Limerick would have a strong wind the first half I realized there would be no first half Cork blitzkrieg.  I did wonder if Cork would find any momentum at all.  They didn't as they even lost the second half.

I don't want to be harsh and call them a fair weather team but we'll see if they can perform under adversity as they'll need that to win the championship.

Credit to Limerick as they did their homework.  No Cork goals from open play.  Nice job considering how unstoppable Cork had been.

Question is: what did Waterford take away from that game?  They do have the ability to surprise.  Plus it is a knockout game for the loser.  Never mind all the championship talk, Cork could be out by Sunday night.  Sure it could be an easy win with Cork having too much for Waterford.  But if Cork can be prevented from dominating and the game kept close(or if Waterford can get a strong first half wind and play with a lead)...who knows.

G that Dublin swing on the Galway forward was sthing else, how was it not a red card. No card was even given. Probably lucky there not already 3 men send off in this game already.

Low scoring game. PP is very tight.

Should be 3 red cards in first half.

Handy game for Cork. Munster final against Limerick in a couple weeks.

Keep your finger near the delete button... 🤔

Nip and tuck here, Cork aren't going for goal as much as expected but their backs are dodgy under the high ball.

A goal either way will be interesting

[marty34]

Cork will have huge breeze in 2nd half.

Plus they're getting their scores easier.

[Truthsayer]

Cork look like they've a hangover from hammering by Limerick last week. Has shook their confidence. Need to let it go and cut loose...

[johnnycool]

Cork and their 2 goals have opened up the lead they needed. 

[johnnycool]

Jesus, Cork haven't learned that their full backs aren't good enough to go man to man.

That was filthy from Harnedy. Hurling needs the black card to punish that sort of shite.

Dublin were disappointing. They weren't at the races. The last 2 goals put a gloss on the result.

There is a black card in hurling but only for denying a goal scoring chance and even then when Bennett was pulled back it wasn't used inexplicably

Peter Queally has called for change in the structure of the hurling championship after his Waterford team were left redundant in May for the fourth successive year.

Colm Lyons did not have a good game. Should have been two red cards for Galway and one for Dublin.
