All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship 2016

Very like last year’s AI final, Waterford are really up for this and matching Kilkenny in physicality. Gleeson may have taken a few bad options, but he is really neutralizing Mick Fennelly’s influence. First 15 minutes now are key, if Waterford can stop Kilkenny going on a run, they surely have a better bench for the last 15? Great game, hurling as it should be played, and fair play to McGrath and Waterford for going for it.

Great to see Ken McGrath in rude health.

It’ll be interesting no matter what happens. It was a great first half.

Was that Prendergast again? Yellow card?

Maurice for Dunford.

What a score. Exactly what they needed.

Walsh’s hurling is just not sharp enough. Great worker but his touch is way off.

Bennett doing really well breaking ball.

Softish free.

Clear throw from Joyce.

Goading is the word you’re looking for

Goals will decide this game I’d say.
It’s been a masterclass of free taking.

Terrible wide, has to take his man on there.

Gleeson gets split by his own man

Moran’s use of the ball isn’t all it might be either in shooting or passing.

Christ.
