2016 All Ireland Hurling & Camogie Finals

Marty not recognising Niall McCarthy there.

Cyrilā€™s genuine attempts not to be patronising make him sound patronising.

ā€œAs good a goal as youā€™d see in any gameā€ etc.

Hurling winning the day here

Looks like Cork are going down without a fight.

Cark women not taking their bating too well here.

KK simply matched Corks tactical set up and were mentally ready. No doubt they were the better hurlers.

Really disappointing to see the drop in discipline. Cork did everything they normally donā€™t.

Classless bunch compared to their footballers.

Kk have done all the hurling here. Its pure brute force on corks behalf that has made this a contest.

The referee has continually given Cork soft frees.

And another 1.

I think all us astute observers of sport at all levels, knew from as early as that handshake, that Cork were in trouble here. A latent realization of their lack of preparedness manifesting itself in bully girl behaviour.

They knew they were fucked and it just needed Kilkenny to shaft them thereafter.

Certainly an indication of a poor mindset

KKā€™s fielding of the ball throughout the game was very good.

Corkā€™s pre-match shenanigans set the tone for what followed. An undisciplined, narky and petulant display. Fair play to Kilkenny for the excellent second half performance in particular. They also werenā€™t intimidated by Corkā€™s physicality throughout and intermittent dirt and let their hurling do the talking.

Poor Thompson. I hope sheā€™ll be OK.
