The fifth-class pupils of Ballinora NS have been busy. There were no feet up on the countdown to the summer holidays. The crayons were out and an anthem coloured. Their enterprise was strikingly similar to the past pupils they were immortalising in song. In the small, rural parish of Ballinora this Saturday morning, it is a case of whoever is last out, turn the key and lock the door behind you. An entire parish is heading in motorcade to the Model County.

Such are the competing narratives in the Tipperary attack, the achievement of Andrew Ormond is finding space to tell and have his story heard, never mind finding space in the company of Cian Galvin and Tadhg de Búrca to torment and thrive. There is Darragh McCarthy's debut summer of red mist and razor accuracy. There is John McGrath’s rejuvenated summer of relentless green. There's older brother Noel’s summer of record appearances and ageless vision.

LUSSES and problem areas. Or should that be problem areas and pluses? Either way, Cork are not shy of standouts in both departments. The headline entries into either column are obvious.

A hurry on nobody. Forty minutes have passed since the final whistle. The Gaelic Grounds field is a framed picture of tranquil cheer. Players mingle in their own local pods. Danny Neville chats to six or seven Ballysteen mates, Cillian Fahy and an elderly gentleman are locked in conversation. Jimmy Lee drifts from group to group. Of no interest to the manager is ushering lads back to the dressing-room. Jimmy assumed the Limerick reins ahead of the 2024 season.

John Kiely: “I think Cork got a really good rub of the green there just in that last piece. “There was three minutes gone, it is hard to find three minutes of added time in a 10-minute half. It was a little difficult to understand.” https://t.co/t8HNi9U1OU

Colleges/divisions section of the Cork county championship becoming a bit of a farce such is the annual spate of 11th hour withdrawals. Either find a home for it in the calendar that won't have clubs pulling their players or scrap it altogether. https://t.co/CbkG0mseB3
