Move along, nothing to see here

NOBODY puts manners on Cork football freshmen like Nemo Rangers.

Several finalists before them have suffered a similar, sickening emptiness that Douglas will experience when the depth of their county final distress consumes them today.

Conjuring up an appealing vista of Nemo’s ‘inevitable’ demise nourishes false expectations and neglects to recognise what has brought them to a fourth consecutive Cork football title — seamless transition from powerful, balanced unit to, well, another powerful, balanced unit.
