The points weren’t secure until the end but the hosts were never led from Jamie Barron’s second-minute goal.

Waterford 2-25 Cork 1-25 AS DAVY FITZGERALD crouched in celebration on the sideline and the public address roared ‘up the Déise’, there was no doubting that Waterford are a live force in Championship 2024.

On a glorious day in the Sunny South East, Walsh Park was packed with 11,973 fans, including more than a fair share from across the county bounds. The Déise turned that early momentum into a 1-4 streak with points from Kiely, Barron, and Jack Prendergast , although new close-range free-taker Dessie Hutchinson pushed an early effort wide. He wouldn’t miss again, scoring nine out of 10.

Waterford’s response was impressive. Montgomery and a Hutchinson free sandwiched a fist-pumping Lyons score under the stand.
