Replying To Tadhg2020:  "I dont think any team can adequately replace players of the calibre of Lynch and Gillane. It is what it is though. Everything leading into game is favouring Clare. It is going to be interesting."
A so called great team should be able to replace injury players, KK did it and so should Lk.

I didnt say lads from bigger clubs are missing out. It may well be the case but I didnt say that.

WE REPLACED BOTH CIAN LYNCH AND PETER CASEY, THE TWO BEST PLAYERS IN THE PREVIOUS YEARS FINAL, IN 2022 AND STILL LOWERED THE MORE. HOW DID THE CATS DO IN 2010 WHEN SHEFFLIN AND NOEL HICKEY WERE OFF.

I was looking at the stats. I always had the opinion that Cusack Park is a fortress for them but their win rate during the round robin is only 50%. Unfortunately its 66.7% against us but we did win last time we were there.
Our conversion rate against Cork was 55%. Thats very poor at this level. You cant win off 55%. We need to up that to 70% or more. If we do that will bring us into 33 plus points range which is where we should be. Thats a significant improvement though so hopefully they are on form. There is a lot of talk about scoring goals and if we do that's great but getting that shot conversion rate up is key.
