Wexford were dominant early on and should have been further ahead. Some snatchy shooting after getting into good positons. Kilkenny got a grip on their movement as the half progressed and had some sloppy wides themselves.
A notable feature of the first half was Wexford’s defending from the front. Mick Jacob blocked down two attempted Noel Hickey clearances and set up a kicked point by Paul Carley and another chance missed by Barry Lambert from those. We’ll need to keep that up.
Mitch Jordan has three points from play off JJ Delaney and Ruth doing well on Shefflin again. Come on Wexford.
That Paul Carley point was a great kick. Mick Jacob moves Hickey around which he didn’t like. Jacob’s blocking that day was excellent. He had a fine game
That was funny alright. I think he was over Mullagh that Saturday in the 7s and was on the beer solid since. We met him in the early hours and he was welded but sound out. The following night he appeared on the Sunday Game a little worse for wear and extremely hoarse. He claimed it was from shouting Tipp on all day. His ropey appearance was his last on the Sunday game.
He came down to the Burlington after the Sunday Game. We met Joe Deane while getting the grub at the 7’s , he was adamant there was no way Tipp would win, fuck you Joe Deane.
