Clare v Waterford - Munster Hurling Semi Final

They are in their fuck. We’ve been getting trounced by Kilkenny for years and it has never happened that they’ll hit balls up to unmarked and opposing full backs as happened today. And they won’t go with an extra defender either. They play a zonal game which is a million times better than the Waterford muck.

Kilkennys half forwards don’t drop back and half back line sit deep? The only difference is Kilkenny “Usta” break up the field quicker. Kilkenny mastered the art of playing the free arm and playing the Hurley! But I suppose Kilkenny invented the game and own hurling!!

Credit to Clare for not capitulating completely and keeping the scoreboard respectable. As I anticipated though, Waterford were far too good for the whipping boys of Munster and won pulling up.

Ah lovely the HT/FT was never in doubt! Clare were absolutely woeful today couldn’t hit a barn door but they will still have a big say,their record in Munster is shocking.

Haven’t won a championship game in years pal.

League means fuck all after today, when you look at it.

Very little energy in Clare in the second half. Kelly, Galvin, Podge, and McGrath nowhere to be seen. Waterford’s setup had a fair bit to do with that but it doesn’t explain it all away. Not attacking Waterford directly, but not getting the key players on the ball further out the field either. Major systems failure for Clare.

One championship win from seven (over Offaly) since that most fortuitous of All Ireland wins in 2013.

Kilkenny brought their own cuntishness to the game but it was easier to watch than the Waterford horseshit.

I said here somewhere that Waterford had all the ammo they needed after Clare robbed them in the league final,I would expect Shannahan,Moran and Gleeson to be nominated for MOTM with the Deise Captain deservedly getting it.

You couldn’t make it up.

They have the players as well which makes it all the more baffling.

I did’nt see it coming pal, I honestly thought Clare had the better forwards and that would see them through.

They had a bad day today, qualifiers will be a mine field as well. They wouldn’t fancy Wexford Park that’s for sure.

Who would you tip to get through to the QF’s out of that group pal?

Don’t know but they won’t have to beat much because they’re all shite.

Maybe ye should come down to Waterford show them how to hurl so? Be easy for the boys they could do it after work before they go over the bridge

The only good thing Clare can take away is the awful stat of Munster winners going on to win Liam in September.

It doesn’t tend to happen anymore.

That’s just ridiculous.

Diving, hunting the ref to get players booked, feigning injury and their Ulster football tactics.
