Cork not finished, but Cats should prevail

IN all the years of doing this job, never have I met such serious concern among Cork hurling supporters. “Have we any chance at all?” is the most common refrain, a real beating the most common fear.

My reply is always the same – of course Cork have a chance, and if the forwards produce, then a real chance.

Yes, the most likely outcome from this game is another Kilkenny win, another scalp on the way to another All-Ireland title, and an historic five-in-a-row.
