Lovely pass there
It was only last week you were belittling the standard of Leinster club hurling😂
Ballacolla scrape through. Great to win it on an off night.
I was but Clough were transformed tonight. 100% improved from quarter final.
What genius decided to have the final in an empty Croke Park? Carlow be ideal.
Ulster thug…oh wait.
That Jerome Henry is a clown of a referee. He gave a Rock player a second yellow card in an AI junior final for a shove in the back on a kickout.
That’s criminal in fairness. Clear mark not given. And even after that a Mountbellew player is fouled straight after. Pearses go down and the other end and kick the winning point off the back of it.
Every wide’s a bad wide
Ref drew it on himself.
I saw them v Raps and was impressed. Didn’t really know how good Kilmacud were.
Ref drew it on himself.
Sometimes the ref needs a good bollocking. They’ll never learn otherwise
Best team on the night won.
You can have all the tactics, gameplan, puckout strategies you want, but if they ain’t underpinned by a workrate and desire to win, they ain’t worth a dam.
Fair point.
C/B probably better than people gave them credit for. Picky and the two Dunphys prob the best players on the first.
Ronan Hayes doesn’t have it.
Crokes for all they have won in Dublin over the past 15 years have yet to provide Dublin with a nailed on homegrown starter for the senior team. Hayes is probably the closest they’ve come. He was disappointing tonight but he’s a late developer.
The fact they had 7 under 21s on the finishing team didnt help. They are short good lads in the 27-31 bracket to provide leadership. CB had those boys in spades.
They were great tonight but I would fear for them v Ballyhale in Croke Park
Congrats Clough/Ballacolla. Wonderful to see small parishes thriving in provincial hurling
Kilmallock - Midleton has started. Thought throw in was 1.30.
