Well done Galway, I didn't see that coming. But, you've got to keep your feet on the ground, there's a final still to be played. It's great to see the Leinster Champions give a top Munster side a beating. Especially after most people had written you off. Plus, all the recent denigration and mocking of the Leinster Championship.
Good luck in the final.

Replying To katser: "Getting set for an absolute cracker of a All Ireland Semi Final between Galway v Cork.
Galway have a fine team with a good mix of youth and experience and are well able to match Cork man v man.all over the field.
Cork might have the legs but Galway definitely are more physical and have the skills to hurt Cork.
I'm loving the situation Galway are in......no talk, nobody gives them a chance, 4 weeks off, Cork apparently Getting ready for the All Ireland Final.
I can feel the mother of all ambushes coming.......Galway to win by 2pts." Have to eat humble pie with my prediction congrats to Galway great display lovely style of hurling well done

Something will have to be done about the championship structure. The gulf between the Leinster champions and the second team in Munster was just enormous today.

Nothing won yet but by God that was tremendous. Blew Cork away in that second half. Stunning performance.

What a fantastic performance and such a tonic after the footballer's lame exit last week! It feels a lot to me like the 1985 semi-final when Cork were also red-hot favourites but were blown away by a brilliant display from a new look Galway team under the second coming of Cyril Farrell. Would be great if this bunch goes on to emulate the subsequent exploits of that great 1985-1990 team.

Hope Kerry go on and win it now I suppose, but I wouldn't hate seeing Mayo win if I'm totally honest. If it's a Dublin vs Louth final, I'll have to leave the country and refuse to watch it

Well done to Galway. Brilliant performance especially that 15 minutes after half time. Hopefully some of those munster pundits and fans can have more respect for the leinster championship

Hell of a result in Croker today.
What a performance by Galway.
Not many tipped this scoreline.
Cork led by 1-12 to 1-07 after 30mins, and then 1-13 to 1-12 at HT
But yet another 2nd half calamity by the Rebels.
Only scored 5pts in the 2nd half compared to the Tribesmen's 1-14.
And Galway also had 14 wides I think it was.
Gonna take quite a bit for Cork to come back from this added to what happened v Tipp in the 2nd half of last year's final.
The hunger, determination, tracking back, defending, team work, calmness and tactics by Galway was outstanding.
Hopefully Galway go on now and finish the job and win Liam in a few weeks.
Congrats today Gaillaimh.

Congratulations, Galway. Keep the heads and with that skill and work rate, ye are good enough to win it out, irrespective of whether it is Clare or Limk (50-50 game).
Ye totally mastered Cork! Bossed them all over the field and they simply were not able to stand up to it!

Replying To Fionn: "Continuing on from today, and some previous games, hopefully the underdogs continue to win in the closing stages of both the football and hurling championships.
It would be great to see imo.
Although I am sure those from the 2 overwhelming All Ireland favourites in both codes would disagree…!
;o)" Janey Fionn,you re getting very giddy.So if we win the semi,you hope Louth or Mayo win final?

Kerry 2022-Current Team Better Than 04-09 Team? - 1 Like(s)
Replying To Saynothing: "You're correct, there was nothing in the 08 game until last 5 minutes. Tyrone hit a purple patch in last 5 minutes and that was crucial. A toss of a coin in all those semi final and finals all the way through the 00s." I think Goochs early eye injury in 2005 was very unfortunate for Kerry. He was flying at that stage and you could visibly see it affected his game afterwards. Whether it'd have change the result is debatable but Kerry needed him on form to win.
Two great teams full of wonderful players.
