His performance was outstanding today. His work rate was as high as I’ve ever seen it, but it looked like he was provoked, certainly he was playing with more ire and desperation than usual.
FWIW, I thought it was a great game between two excellent sides, and even though I was fit to burst at what I perceived as some outrageously one sided refereeing, at the end of the day, clare were the equal of galway at least, and it was only the wides that killed them. I have the greatest of respect for you as a hurling poster, and I’m sorry ye had to lose that, though delighted we won.
The only decent thing I ever saw him do was stick a point over from the sideline in the end against kk in Tullamore about 3 or so years ago. Then the Sheflin bitch recipricatated in no time down the far end. He’s just another hurler, nothing special about this guy at all. Scumbag media blowing this guy up completely disproportionately.
It has been a mad championship with so many matches decided by a puck of the ball.
