[QUOTE="morello, post: 7427603, member: 15738"] First time seeing this bunch live. Impressive overall, maybe 2 or 3 lads short of real top quality. Waterford played poorly, lot of mis-hit striking, dropped catches etc. looked very nervous, and they're very young so not sure how good a barometer they are, but apparently they had the beating of Tipp the last day. The half forward line is excellent. 2 puc-out targets on the wings - tall and athletic and both well able to catch under pressure. The 12 Murphy from Barryroe is a real stand out player - prob 6'4'', left handed hurler, loads of pace. He actually got 4 points but the crowd and umpires conspired to rob him of one. O'Brien is serious also, immaculate first touch all night, pacy and accurate. Lost his head for a second and should have seen red for a really bad stroke, at a key time in the game. Brosnan from the Glen was a handful, could have had more scores, his marker was taken off after 20 minutes or so. Lee was the go-to lad in the full forward line all night, played a rake of ball, very strong. Bit casual - again could have had even more considering the ball he was on. Half back line was other line of note - 3 big athletic lads but very calm on the ball, worked their way out of loads of tricky situations with nice stickwork, handpasses and weren't afraid to be physical and a bit cynical when needed. The 7 Murphy from Mallow was just about the pick of those 3. [/QUOTE]
