Epic match, skill, commitment, tension, everything You name it , what a great competition, great vocal support there today, IMHO the celebrations on the pitch were more passionate than back in 2018, I suppose no surprise given the dramatic end to the game.

Sore head this morning but well worth it. I am a seriously proud Carlow man today. What a game & what a performance from our lads. I never doubted them & was very confident we would win especially after hammering their 2nd team 2 weeks ago. Momentum is a huge thing & Offaly played with fire by putting out their B team & they got their rewards yesterday. Tbh I was worried when it went to extra time as I thought our lads were spent but they dug deep & what a score by Chris to win it. When you think that theres only 6 senior clubs in Carlow & only 8 clubs represented overall on the panel it makes it all the more unbelievable. We punch above our weight all the time. Finally the Carlow support in Croker was unreal yesterday. My kids never saw so many Carlow jerseys together before. Now lads please get out the flags for the preliminary q/t final ( prob Dublin), a game we will have a say in. Ceatharlach Abu

What a day, what a match! I'm wrecked after that. Those Carlow players have astonishing will power and never throw in the towel. I'm always proud to be a Carlow man and those lads make it easy. Ceatharlach Abu!

What a great game, I thought at full time we had lost our chance, but that extra time performance was as gutsy as you are ever likely to see, great scenes in the haymarket last night, it's great to see all the kids out in their jerseys celebrating a fantastic win.

Congratulations Carlow and indeed Offaly. The GAA can't get it not giving these teams a bigger billing with a Leinster or Munster final on alternative years.

Unreal performance yesterday and no more than the whole group deserved.
Support was fantastic.
Now we need the County board to step up and start giving proper funding and support to hurling in the county. Time and time again the hurlers deliver. This is a massive chance to really push the hurling and sow the seeds for future generations.
Probably need some really strong hurling men sitting on the board to at the very least balance the scale.

Carlows greatest living victory. That is my summation of a superb team performance.
The best I have seen.
