AI SHC Semi-Final Killkenny v Tipperary

Does Finbar Wright still sing at half time?

The greatest team to ever play the game.

You couldn’t entirely rule out Galway winning, kk will get nowhere near that again , the AI final will be there 3rd attempt at peaking this year , that’s impossible

Frank Patterson does it these days I think.

:rolleyes:

Joe Canning will retire JJ Delaney.

Jaysus Ger Lock is an awful likable fella these days.

Galway are in better condition than Tipp. Aside from that they’ve no hope if Kilkenny rise to the challenge again. They’ll have to hope that was the last big kick today.

1st AI final 2008 KK 2-15 Wat 0-5
2nd half today. KK 3-15 Tipp 0-5

That’s how humiliating it was for Tipp.

Kilkenny don’t do impossible

Fucking hell john o Brien wanted to kill hickey there.

Superb!

[font=Verdana][size=3]They said Rice has a tendon injury on his hand. I think that’s the same thing Cyril Donnellan had? Will struggle to make the final if it is[/size][/font]

I’m glad that one of the most irritating things about McAllister’s officiating was pointed out today, the fucking age it takes his umpires to indicate scores and wides. Incredibly annoying when you’re actually at the game.

Stop it mate.

Are you implying foul play in the recent death of O’Brien’s father?

Tipp are finished at the highest level in their current guise anyway. Kelly, Corbett, Curran and O Mahoney are all gone. Munster next year is anyone’s guess

:strokechin:

Presumably Declan Ryan will be escorted off the Tipp bus just outside Urlingford before the team are allowed continue on their journey. An utter troglodyte, made all the more ridiculous when you consider the style of play favoured by his predecessor.

Don’t know if Curran and O’Mahoney are gone but they’re in serious trouble if they are. Having a settled 3 and 6 was critical to their recent success.

There will be ferocious bloodletting in Tipp after this anyway. You’d expect a lot of casualties.
