And itâs hard not to smile at that photograph of JBM and Frank above. Two GAA legends arm in arm.
JBMâs second spell in charge of Cork reminds me so much of the Kingâs return to Anfield. Pundits said the game had changed and passed both men by. Both proved the doubters totally wrong and brought success, honour and glory back to their respective teams.
Great to have one of the Big 2 in there alright. Kilkenny and Cork are great hurling counties.
Its great that that Muster has 3 of the top 4 teams in the country (Limerick, Cork, Clare). Hopefully Waterford will be a force next year and can join us in the top 4.
It may take some time for Tipperary to claw its way back into the top 8 in the country.
Bar losing a final to a Wexford side in 1956 thatâs always talked of as being one of the greatest of all time, Cork just donât lose All Ireland finals to anyone other than Kilkenny. It will be a procession on 8 September regardless of who wins next Sunday.
Good luck to Cork, its not their fault the championship system is so flawed and instead of the Limerick v Dublin final the perfectly fine old system would most likely have delivered, weâre looking at 15 in a row for the Big 3 and Cork 2013 joining Cork 2004, Tipperary 2010 and Kilkenny 2012 in the ranks of back door champions.
whatever about Clare, limerick donât have it in them to perform on All Ireland final Sunday, not to talk about beating Cork twice in one year in the championship, they donât have the mental toughness
all i can say is wexford wanker of a ref out of his depth -miles from the play, shambolic performanceâŚhow many times keaney was fouled under the high ball without punishment in first half was ridiculousâŚjoke of a performance from the ref.Antony nash - what a keeperâŚhis use of the ball was fantasticâŚthe stephen cluxton of hurlingâŚCork fans- what a bunch of cunts, only started cheering with 6 minutes to go and the odds totally in their favourâŚhorrible cuntsâŚDubs will be sick over leaving this game behind.
Cork have bad the ref in their pockets since the Munster final, its disgraceful really, but when you have Frank Murphy on board, anything is possible. Kilkenny and now Dublin have been the victims of disgraceful decsions that have cost them the game
It was a classic. Anyone saying otherwise is only bitter that their county was not involved. It was tot for tat at incredible pace. What the fuck do people want.
Has anyone taken notice of the quality of person over IC hurling teams is far superior to the football in a general sense. The likes of Daly and JBM compared to some of those jumped up twaats having a go at people all the time.

Was it 15 times teams were level?
Never has the lead changed hands so many times in such an important match that I can recall.
whether i´m there or not is irrelevantâŚthe fact is an All ireland semi final deserves a referee who knows what he´s doingâŚand don´t fool yourself the GAA will always need Dublin fansâŚget over itâŚ

Dublin have had a great year and today was an unfortunate end to the adventure. It is always difficult to lose out at a semi final stage, especially to the likes of todays very questionable sending off.
At that point Dublin were on top and seemed destined to win the game.
The entire country accepts that Dublin were hard done by today.

Daly assaulted someone at a children s game a few weeks back
if he is someone to look up to Id hate to see the rest of them
JBM is an alright sort- encouring his kid to ditch GGA for the brights lights of the vauxhall conference shows he is a sound skin
