Players respond when they are challenged and the video of Cork’s poor performance that day offers many challenges which helps with motivation. Barron, Moran, Gleeson and Ryan would run at Cork’s defence at every opportunity. Fanning has left out several of those players and may look to change things up in terms of style of play too. In last year’s fixture, Cork handed six handy points to the Déise through poor option-taking and weak support play as some lateral passes in defence were intercepted. Precision and accuracy have to be the hallmarks of Cork’s defence as they transition to attack.
