The Cork hurlers host Limerick on Saturday night but the Leeside faithful are losing hope and have little expectation of an upset.
Cork were beaten by the Déise and Clare, and Denis Hurley joins Éamonn Murphy to look at what changes and tactics we can expect from Pat Ryan and his selectors for the big hurling game.
What can they do to improve their puck-out strategy? Do they deploy a sweeper like Mark Coleman in one of the forward slots to drop deep and offer cover? They lost 3-26 to 3-24 to Clare in a wild game so keeping it tight is surely a priority.
There's also a review of the Cork U20 round-robin series, which saw Ben O'Connor's young charges heavily beaten in Tipperary in a game where their lack of physicality and ball-winning was jarring. There is no shortage of talent in the squad but can they find their best form before the Munster semi-final?
Plus the Cork footballers now know their Sam Maguire group stage opponents, with Clare first up. We look at their prospects.
