Replying To Cockney_Cat:  " Excuse me but hurling is the sport where lads just drive the ball up into the air and hope for the best. Very rarely you actually see a good pass in hurling just lad been chased down coming out of defense and he hoofs it long a big roar from the crowd as two lads run after it absolutely no skill level.

So if hurling has "absolutely no skill level" why is it Roscommon, and plenty more counties, cant get 15 men to "just drive the ball up into the air and hope for the best" like Tipperary, Galway and Kilkenny do?"
Because they play camogie - tut tut

And its been a while since i seen 16points between the sides in any football match. Pathetic stuff"
Is that you again Cuckoo. Just reminding you again that you were beaten last year by a hurling team in the footabll c'ship. Go way out of that with your auld bladder. You wouldn't know one end of a hurley from the other and I doubt you know much about football either.

Above in bold was meant to be in there."
Mayo beat Donegal by 16 points in 2013 and they were the reigning All Ireland Champions at the time. Mayo lost to Dublin by 15 points in a league game a few years back. It can happen in football.

Surely Kilkenny could have found a campogie team willing to full fill semi final fixture or at least 15 farmers not doing something that afternoon
