Replying To BarneyGrant:  "Mmmm. How is that going?

Tired team. Were lucky to beat Doon.

Wide open now."
Yep they looked a tired team alright.

Sarsfields were much the better team today.

Great win for SARS. Turned them over all over the field. Pressurizing them on every ball. Ballygunner might have looked tired today but far from a spent force. Look at what youth came on today and more to come. It was SARS day and good luck to them going forward.

Na Fianna V winners of Sars and Ulster.

Na Fianna will have a couple of challenge games. Some crowd from Galway, Katser?

And maybe Vinnies minors. Just tó keep lads moing.

Portaferry off to a good start. Looks very dark for hurling

Replying To Jedobi:  "Well done Rathnure winning the Intermediate final in Leinster."
Great performance. Lisdowney were poor except just after half time

Replying To Ryanteam:  "When people start talking like that, you can rest assured that ballygunner will be toppled! Hope SARS go all the way!"
SARS were excellent today, starting 15 and their subs.

Did Portaferry throw that away or did Slaughtneil win it?

Slaughtneil are an unbelievably fit team

And 3 points down at the finish. Slaughtneil stepped up big time and finished very strongly.
Two very interesting semi-finals in store.

Mighty game.

Sars were 8/1 and Ballygunner were 1/14 for today's game. Bookies were way off, and a glaring example that they don't always get it right!

Oh god poor portaferry should never have lost that final..however full credit to slaughtneil,they never gave up the ghost..they will fancy chances against sars..sars gave a great display today and were full value for the win..na fianna were very good again last night..can't comment fully on loughrea,only saw 2 matches in those they dug deep to win..if I'm to call the final pairing,I'd say na fianna/slaughtneil..however wouldn't call that with full confidence..

The natural hurling ability and class of Na Fianna against the honest hard working and less polished Loughrea.

How will it go?

Less polished ?
They've hurled the best in Galway this year... By far.

Replying To Ulsterman:  "Did Portaferry throw that away or did Slaughtneil win it?"
In fairness to Portaferry they got the gameplay right, worked really hard to limit Slaughtneils running game, and got fast ball in and put up a decent score. Think Slaughtneil were fitter and stronger and just outlasted Ferry tbh. The 2 goals lads got away from their markers who were maybe too tired to track back. 2 mighty games in the Ulster Championship all the same.
