Rebels must avoid early Kilkenny sucker punches
Since 2006, Kilkenny have repeated the same trick against Cork buy hitting them with early goals so that, above all, must be their first concern tomorrow.
The Rebels’ defence need to stay in their positions, with the full-back line across the 20m line and the half- backs across the 45. They will need to stick there and not follow their men out the field, particularly at puck-out time, delegating the marking duties to forward colleagues.
