2016 All Ireland Hurling Semi Final - Galway v Tipperary - Game, Set & Match to Tipp

Hickey, @carryharry was he a brother of William from the 96 Minor AI winning side?

Clubmates but no relation.

His brother Seamus played Intermediate with Tipp for a good few years, still hurling Junior.

It pains me to say it but Michael breen is the real deal. The best 94 hurler while Ronan maher is only second to Austin thug Gleeson born in 95.

If Tipp are to win the all Ireland this year, Mikey will be the difference, that and sheamie being on form

Personally I think Ronan maher is the biggest addition. Not only is he a brilliant 6 he frees up his brother to play in his best position where he is also very good. Huge improvement in the tipp half back line this year. John McGrath is a fair bet 25s for hurler of the year. I’m not sure how tipp and Galway will go but I think tipp might savage kk in the final if they happened to meet.

What the fuck are you even trying to say with this sentence?

The best hurler born in 94 and the best hurler born in 95.

Fair enough. Both statements are incorrect but carry on.

Who do you think is better McDonald In 94? Maher is the best 95.

McDonald was born in 95

I’d have Ronan maher as a better play but there completely different. I’d completely dismissed McDonald after his showing in 2015 but was suitably impressed when I saw him this year.

Bumped.

It’s eerily quiet alright. When was the last time we had two hurling SFs the same weekend?
Mouthwatering.

2003 - Cork and Wexford drew and the replay was on the same weekend as Kilkenny v Tipp.

Easily the best sporting weekend of the year.

I really hope the team gives a performance that fíor-Ghaillimhigh, like @ChocolateMice, can be proud of.

Yeah, but more often that not he goes into hiding.

Not against Tipp
