Agree on Wex v Galway but salt hill is a dump . Clare and Waterford have been utterly awful but Dublin or wex would beat them .
Galway v KK was a good tussle but the standard was shite. A bit like your wumming.
Leinster is tight because Dublin and Wexford play a hape of sweepers to keep the score down.
Kilkenny and Galway was like a football match last week.
Thereâll be 3 Munster teams in the semi finals again this year

It wasnât shit ffs and I ainât wumming at all .
TJ Reid gave a better performance than anyone from limerick ever has in the history of hurling. Cathal Mannion shot points from angles that if limericks drones even attempted theyd be off the panel as it doesnt fit in the system. And you think the standard was shite.

Wexford always played a sweeper . They drew with Galway shooting umpteen wides
Kk v gal was a super game and both teams will improve .
3 Munster teams might well be in semis then again they may not be .

It was a good tussle. Thereâs serious disarray in Waterford and Clare ffs⌠Last year Munster was streets ahead⌠An off year and youâre jumping up and down spitting venom on it. Dublin play two sleepers. Wexford not far off it. Galway have been dire but beginning to find form and kk are so so⌠Thatâs what youâre calling âbox officeâ⌠Go way ta fuck⌠The game last week was poor on quality but very physical and made for a good contest.
Cathal Mannion is the purest striker of a ball by some distance .
He is when the mood takes him. ie not on all ireland final day
When he has time. Other than that heâs windy enough and goes missing too often.
He was a disgrace in last yearâs AI final. His shooting wasnât too pure that day.

Iâm not denying there was good individual performances⌠Galway are way below what we know they can produce⌠Theyve let kk drag them down to mullocker stuff.
I think the Clare is disarray might be a little exaggerated . If you think about if the real spine of the 2013 team is gone , Dillon , Donovan , bugler , donnellan , the really wonderful Conor Ryan , Colin Ryan , McGrath and impact sub honan . They are poor enough and will be down for a while . In hindsight the overachieved last year ( I overrated them )
You have to tailor your performances. If you thought last week was bad tonight will be worse, playing kk and dublin every year means you have to pick big lads capable of physical battle, then hurl. Very different to munster and when we play the munster whippersnappers in croker its a different game entirely. Nat azy

Is Conor McGrath injured or whatâs his story?
Have all those hip surgeries impacted him?

The whole Galway team were poor in last yearâs final . JC played for 15 mins granted . They were largely flat all championship .
Yes . Out for this year . A big loss
Mannion is seriously overrrated. The best hurler that Galway have is David Burke. He always shows up and is consistently excellent.
David Burke has been average for well over a year now . He doesnât look 100% fit , lacking a yard . The club final passed him by .
David Burke gave an exhibition the same day in club final
