Either at this stage we’ll worry about it next week

Limerick would bate the pick of yesterday’s opponents a point a man. they’re unstoppable

This place will go into meltdown if its a Clare Limerick final.

Galway will take Clare boys

Way more Galway posters surely?

Galway is on the Shannon as well. It’s a Shannonside Final now regardless.

Isn’t it just tremendous that the “big 3” or “big 2” have all been sent packing and the three best teams in the land are from “weaker” counties.
Long may it last.

Ah yeah but they aren’t as starved of success as the roasters in Clare and Limerick, especially Linerick. Place is going to be nuts for the next few weeks.

It is a welcome development after the Big 3 winning 17 of 18 from 1999-2016, their longest ever period of dominance. In the rare years the Big 3 don’t win, it is often in clumps - 1955-56, 1959-60, 1980-81, 1993-98, 2017-18.

87 to 89 taking out Tipp’s forever tainted AI.

We’ll credit 89 to Antrim as a compromise.

It’s fantastic how this new format has separated the wheat from the chaff. No doubt if it continues the GAA will change it again.

This year’s championship will have an asterisk after it.

Its either a big 1 or big 3 mate

Hmmm🤔
