KK have announced an unchanged team for the replay :hushed:

Is this it? Is the empire crumbling finally?

Iā€™ll have a bit of the 7/2 about Waterford

completely forgot that one!

Its called confirmation bias.

The fact that he is picked again does not convince me anD less that he was destroyed by one of the best young player performances in a long time in CP. It just suggests (if in fact they line out as programmed) that Cody doesnā€™t have any otger options there.

The same man who told me about the change last week, which was correct (but not what the fucking commentators were suggesting of 15v15) said Waterford have spent the week discussing their own strengths but also the fact that they can expect severe timber and a few strokes tomorrow. I think this is a wise approach. KK will bring intensity but if Waterford see it out and doubts donā€™t creep in after 20/25 then for me there is only one winner. I think Waterford are better set up to survive 2 high intensity games in 6 days better than KK and once they are level/ahead around 45 mins (as i believe they could be 3-4 down at this point and still will win) i think they might even pull away comfortably. Outside of Larkin they arguably have a more potent bench.

Just think it is very hard to beat them without banging in at least one goal. If you are relying on points alone the margin for error shrinks massively!

Unsurprisingly they have shortened to 3/1

Still a bit of 10/3 around.

There is fantastic respect and great oul banter between both teams and supportersā€¦ this shows great example to young lads

backed em at 10/3 on B365 just there. And Wford/Wford double result 8/1. And to win 4-6 pts at 12s.

All in on the blaas!

Galway v Waterford Final 11/1.

I think Tipp will account for ye handily enough Sunday. 5 points+

You could be right.

Letā€™s hope itā€™s as accurate as your financial advice.

Cody has a few tricks up his sleeve for tomorrow. Expect Tj and Richie to start midfield and two new corner forwards to be sprung :wink:

Heard this also

Fogarty at CB and Mick Fennelly at centre forward.

Fennelly centre forward an obvious one after last week. Iā€™d like to see TJ at 12. Unsure about Fogarty centre back. I think heā€™s more suited to his usual role. Interesting to see if Kk will man mark. Joyce on Brick and let Buckley follow Gleeson. Was surprised Lennon was dropped. I wonder will he get a run.

What height is Fogarty? Would be very small for centre back I wouldā€™ve thought

Thatā€™s exactly what they should do. Buckley on Gleeson and Joyce on Walsh.
