Talking points: Who will get the task of curbing classy Carton?

Whoever gets the task, curbing Carton would go a long way to getting Cork over the line.

How will Waterford handle the occasion?

If a week is a long time in politics, I’m not sure what 78 years in camogie is, but it is 1945 since Waterford contested a Senior Final, losing out to Antrim by 5-2 to 3-2. By my reckoning, Cork have played in 44 Senior finals since, winning 23. Differing fortunes, but you need to look at where Waterford camogie has come from in the past 12 years to fully appreciate this achievement. Having finally annexed the Junior title in 2011 at the third time of asking, they followed up with Intermediate success in 2015 and are now one hour away from securing the county’s first ever Senior title. Niamh Rockett could create her own little bit of history by winning all three medals.
