All Ireland Hurling Championship 2018

1878

This is the second time in a week I’ve taken the piss out of myself on purpose and people are piling in with “headshot”, “you’ve destroyed him” etc etc. I’m very upset now.

PS, @croppy_boy - I won’t be in Croke Park on Sunday.

OH.MY.GOD

This is confusing.

You were taking the piss out of yourself this week and went so far in doing so that you chose not attend a Wexford game, in Cork - something you referred to 12 months ago as being essential if you
‘truly care about Wexford hurling or Wexford winning an All Ireland’.

Is that correct?

His partner wasn’t around back then. He is under her/his thumb now

1882

Broadly speaking, but it is very nuanced and there is important context you’re leaving out. Let’s take a break for lunch and resume at 1.50pm.

No let’s not. You’re claiming that you were taking the piss.

The least you could do is admit you simply don’t care enough to go.

@Bandage is down and clearly injured. @croppy_boy is refusing to kick the ball out of play to allow assistance.

Proper order… Bandage stood on Croppy’s ankle when he was down last year…

Richie Power seems quite dismissive of Clare, thinks Wexford are well placed to beat them. Paradoxically he thinks Limerick will beat Kilkenny.

1888

It’s gas how reactionary people are after one game.

Cork v Limerick - “Limerick are best placed to challenge Galway.”

Clare v Limerick - “Clare are serious contenders.”

Drawn Leinster final - “Galway are vulnerable this year.”

Dublin v Kilkenny - “Kilkenny are finished”

Leinster final replay - “Kilkenny will meet Galway in the All-Ireland final (Cyril)

The one consistent view is that unbeaten Cork are woeful

That’s only coming from one poster on here.

With John Meyler in charge they haven’t a hope of winning a trophy*

*apart from the 2 Munster titles he’s won obviously

Just read Richie’s column to see what he was basing it. Shaun Murphy playing the sweeper position incredibly well apparently. :eek:

1893

Also he highlighted Liam Ryan as a quality player on the edge of the square.

1894

That’s fair enough. Liam Ryan has been excellent.
