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

It’s OK, it’s still important to refute his ignorant bullshit though.

No pal, Limerick were a traditional hurling county back then, the GAA were keen on giving Galway a leg up, it was clear that after their disastrous spell in the Munster Championship that they would never be able to win an AI through a provincial championship, indeed their record since entering Leinster bears this out.

I get what you mean, but his card is well marked

Zing zing :joy::joy::joy:

great comeback

Really? A traditional hurling county that hadn’t won an AI in 40 years?

Galway have a better record than Tipperary since entering Leinster pal, as last year’s result between the teams demonstrates. Galway and Kilkenny are at the pinnacle of hurling now pal, and Leinster is the only truly competitive province. While Galway have to play Kilkenny to win a Leinster title, Tipp have to face dross like Clare, Limerick and Waterford.

Oh dear, Tipperary have won 5 Munsters and 1 All Ireland to Galway’s 1 Leinster since Galway entered the Leinster Championship in 2009.

The only barometer since 2009 or 1999 for that matter is head to head with Kilkenny. The Munster championship is a joke.

nail on head, imagine winning something where you can avoid playing the best team in the game, and considering that an achievement. delusion. tipp have played kilkenny 6 times since 2009, and could only beat them when their best two players were injured. we don’t have to imagine how shit tipps record would be in leinster.

I’ve been up watching Justice League Legion of Doom since 6:30 pal. The oldest is cracked into it. Having some sourdough toasted now. I’ll take a shit in about half an hour.

Oki doke. We’ll leave it there so

I was at the match and I don’t care what any other Limerick person says, Sean Foley was lucky he wasn’t arrested for assault that day. It was the worst I’ve ever witnessed

Oooft. Clamptastic.

The tussles between galway and limerick were always fairly tasty back then. PJ Molloy was assaulted on his way to goal in 1980. The limerick lads were waiting for the ref’s whistle. But, that’s hurling pal. If we wanted to watch some tippy tappy sport, we’d be down at the cricket club with @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy shouting on the guys from behind the crease.
