I don't want to revisit the game on Saturday other than to congratulate Kilkenny and say what a lesson of hurling we were given. ExiledInWex (Dublin) - Posts: 1250 - 12/06/2024 10:00:54 2550952 Link 0 |
It really is a shame about that performance. Leinster finals are not easy to get to. There's no guarantee they'll be in another one in their careers. You were lucky in Wexford but luck is part of sport and you got the scores. Doylerwex (Wexford) - Posts: 3029 - 12/06/2024 13:43:35 2551009 Link 0 |
I see the Cork crowd have already prebooked their train tickets for the All Ireland Semi Finals (proper order I would have done the same myself if We were in the same position) katser (Galway) - Posts: 2420 - 12/06/2024 20:05:16 2551079 Link 1 |
Clare are less successful than Wexford. They're very good, but would have no right to take us for granted. If we get there of course

Absolutely Clare should not take Wexford for granted and there is no doubt it has the making of a great game but I'd expect since the Munster Final they have been 100% focused and preparing themselves for Wexford. Yes Clare are less successful than Wexford but currently man v man Clare are a better team than Wexford. This Laois game is a poor distraction for example if Wexford get injuries or straight red cards ect ect katser (Galway) - Posts: 2420 - 12/06/2024 23:21:33 2551096 Link 1 |
The way I look at it Exiled is yes the Leinster final was a bad day for Dublin but they did great to get there and while I expect Cork to win quarter final v Dublin the pressure if off so Dublin can give it a right good lash and have nothing to lose.

I hope they can, but morale must be on the floor. Lets hope the team is determined to show they are better than that showing. A good account of themselves has to be the minimum expectation.

Limerick wont be stopped - 5 in a Row, imo, is a foregone conclusion.

Im finding it hard to get excited about the rest of the championship. Hard to see anyone getting near limerick!

You said the same about Galway been better than Wexford, that worked out well. Not even thinking of Clare, got to get past Laois first

Anything can happen on the day. Looks like Limericks to lose ok but if we don't win it I hope they do.

Says who? 15 on 15 there's not much in it. They probably have a better bench which was the difference in 22. I'd say we've improved since then and they've regressed a little. Still, we've to play laois. We might talk about it more next week hopefully. Doylerwex (Wexford) - Posts: 3029 - 14/06/2024 10:03:20 2551352 Link 0 |
Offaly had more support in KK for an u20 Final than they do for a home Senior game v Cork.!!! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2420 - 15/06/2024 17:57:29 2551656 Link 1 |
Kilkenny is a lovely place to visit (and stay), on a sunny June bank holiday weekend.

That explains how Offaly could sell out Nowlan Park but not O Connor Park.

Mmmmm which game would you go to more, an all Ireland final where you have a great chance of winning or a game where everyone is saying cork will win by 30 points! Great year for Offaly, great effort today after 7 days rest, will Galway keep Henry?

Fair play to Offaly for winning the u20 hurling but we will have to see what happens their senior team in the next few years! They won the u20 football a few years ago and there was great huff about them yet their senior football team are Div 4!!! My opinion is I don't think Henry will stay next year. Hopefully Davy Fitz might get it. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2420 - 15/06/2024 22:24:09 2551741 Link 1 |
I am sure all those Offaly Fans went to the Marble City just for the scenery.
