Galway v Tipperary - All Ireland Senior Hurling Semi-Final 2017

[the_man_himself]

Tipp won that game by 10 points or something mate

[Special_Olympiakos]

They did it was something like 2-18 to 2-8. They also scored a fluke goal when going for a point which was first score of the game

Tut tut Jeff, Tipperary won that AI Minor Final by a lot more than a point.

Slip rule as they say in legal parlance. If you refer back to the original post on this subject from @Special_Olympiakos, he was referring to a 1 point semi final win over Kilkenny in 2006.

@Special_Olympiakos

Excellent Geoffrey- there was a second minor meeting between them where a so called chip team of the ages struggled to a one point win over Richie Hogan and 14 water carriers in 2006.

@caulifloweredneanderthal

A minor team that was primarily made up of lads who were 17 and went on to win it again the following year

In my first post on the subject, I referred to that semi final.

@GeoffreyBoycott

@carryharry who doesn’t place any value on All Ireland semi final wins has just given @caulifloweredneanderthal a tea in a mug rating for bigging up a Tipperary 1 point win in an All Ireland Minor semi final in 2006.

Maybe @caulifloweredneanderthal can come on and clarify why he was taking such liberties with the age profile of the Tipperary 2006 minor team when he was bigging them up.

At the end of the day, the only logical conclusion is that Tipp are cunts

There are plenty of decent sports journalists around. I can’t abide the RTE panellists, and they have nothing to offer. Donal O’Grady is the best of them by a long shot, but he’s a fringe contributor now.

Honestly, Colm Parkinson’s podcast is the best of the lot. At least there’s some form of analysis there. And a bit of craic to with Damien Hayes too, the fucking but job. “A donkey’d ate a pallet”

There’s no comparison, Parkinsons in the best by far. You won’t be thanked for saying that on here though. But he’s current, has good guests, and doesn’t take any shit.

Wooly’s post AIF podcast is brilliant. Fantastic analysis on Micheal Donoghue and how he set the Galway team up.

A good listen. Good interview with Johnny Glynn as well.

[ironmoth]

It fucking was.

[myboyblue]

Johnnys a gas man I’d say

I wouldn’t be much of a shhlobb or antin goin off ate’n shite - aboy Jonny

[ironmoth]

What you see is what you get. Although, the arse on him when he came back from the Shtates would suggest he ate a small bit of shite while he was out there.

[anon70480284]

He mentioned nothing about taking the beer handy in NYC though

JJ must have been on some tear on Sunday night. He could barely sting a sentence together.

@ciarancareyshurlingarmy

You forget now, due to their unprecedented success since, just how much the ai semi final win of 2002 by a single point meant to the cats.

Four points, mate. 1-20 to 1-16.

@Fagan_ODowd

That was as good a game of hurling as I’ve ever seen.

Watched it back the other night. Fully agree. One of the best games I’ve ever seen.

[Ashman]

Utterly compelling game. I was at it and the pace , intensity & skill were where the bar is .

[anon61956325]

Did you see the dangerous filth from Tipp throughout.

[anon7035031]

Matched by Galway filth. The only way to beat the cunts.

[Fitzy]

Watching it here now. Nothing between them. Two teams playing on a completely different level to everyone else. It’s brilliant.
Conor Whelan is a ridiculously talented hurler. Hurling at its best. Some of the frees given are soft as shite though.
