Eoin Cadogan: Cork are playing handbrake hurling, with a fear of making mistakes. Time to take the shackles off

Fear cripples most of us in some shape or form in our day-to-day lives and when it happens we freeze and tighten up. At this stage what more can go against this Cork group?

IS THERE A KICK IN CORK?: Alan Connolly kicks a goal despite being tackled by Clare's Rory Hayes and Diarmuid Ryan at FBD Semple Stadium in Thurles.

“Fear is not real. The only place fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me, danger is very real, but fear is a choice.”
