And yes I do understand how unlikely the Cork double would be, since it will surely be third time lucky for Kerry, right? Just back from a drizzly Páirc an Chrócaigh where Cork defeated Waterford in a very close game. Hogan stand has a report here which agrees with Aertel’s score of 1-16 to 1-15… I was under the impression that Cork had 1-17, but makes no difference, either way it was another extremely tight game which has kept cardiologists in the Regional busy after the 1 point victory over Donegal yesterday in the football championship.
I have to commiserate with the Déise fans, this team deserves an all-ireland final at the very least, and I would liked to have seen them get a crack at Kilkenny. They had a very strong team today, with John “turkey head” Mullane having been allowed out of the institution for the occasion. Parts of the stand erupted in “gobble gobble gobble” whenever he had the ball, and it looked like he was indeed going to lose his head, towards the end of the match.

Usually when I’m a neutral I’ll support the underdog, but there is something about the Cork hurling team that I like to support. I’d still have slightly prefered it Waterford had won, but I’m still pleased Cork won. A win-wn situation all round for me
