Cork 0-27 Waterford 0-18, a comfortable win for Cork there in their opening Munster hurling championship game. Waterford are the only team yet to win a game in the Munster group stage, and as of now are facing elimination.
Mind you we lost our opening two games last year, and we still ended up gong through to the all Ireland series. Waterford so far have failed to make it out of Munster when it changed to the round robin format. They got to an all Ireland final in 2020 and semi final in 2021, but due to Covid the Munster championship went back to the old format for those years.
The old enemy Tipperary will be coming to Cork next Saturday evening, and a win there will put us in a very good position ahead of the trip to Ennis to play Clare. Ideally we need to go be going to Ennis with four points on the board. Waterford to be fair had a tough game against Limerick last week, so that would've taken a lot out of them imo.
