Well it's about as tough a draw as we could have got. Would have preferred a softer one to get us back on the horse but they're probably thinking the same. It seems we're away (ie Pairc Ui Rinn) and that'll make it an even more difficult assignment.
AI Qualifier Rd1, Cork v Dublin, Páirc Uí Rinn, Sat July 2nd @ 7pm

To be honest URoy, I think it's a good draw for us as it's an opportunity to prove that we can do what we did to them in Croker down there as well.
The last time we played them on Leeside, we qualified for a league final. Let's think positive and get behind the lads.
Both sides will be smarting from their respective provincials defeats so there should be a backlash!

Tough enough draw away from home.

Fine by me. Get it done or time to go. If we cannot manage this Cork team then we are clearly going backwards. A must win.

To be honest, I would be prioritising the U21s for this year. They have a real chance of doing something. I would be optimistic enough for the seniors for next year, assuming things get sorted out a bit, but for 2016 if we ended the year with a Leinster (and maybe more) double at U21 and Minor, it would be a good year.

You might but GC is hardly likely to. Wonder will Cunningham start any of the u21s forwards? There was one performance which was conspicuous last Wednesday night.

Broadcasting wise, Sky have a slot to show either a Football or Hurling Qualifier at 7 PM on that Saturday (July 2nd). Our match is easily the pick of the games in either code (I'm taking it as read our footballers won't need to worry about a trip to Celtic Park and I'm sure Sky will too), so my guess is that this will be their live game that evening.

I'm glad we drew a top tier team. We can either handle the hurling at the top level or we can't. If we can't then might as well get it over and done with early so the club championships can be played.
Hard to call the result for this one. Both teams are on poor enough form right now.

i'm doing the ring of kerry that day.... wonder if i could get to cork after it for the match.....

You can bet they're thinking exactly the same thing.

They'll probably have to wait for the footballer to finish with Dublin before that happens.

Precisely what I said, a win v Cork could be a massive boon. Just as long as we avoided Clare the next day if we did win....
