Kilkenny Hurling

@Malarkey looking well on the tele

That would sicken your shit. Criminal conceding a goal like that at that stage of the game it was like the entire Toblerone team froze.

Some well worked goal by Ballyhale there to be fair .

That was heart breaking for Tullaroan to get pegged back by a goal at the death. Tommy Walsh is a legend, great guy.

Shane Walsh hurling very well. Is he near the county panel?

He was called in after they won the club AI in Jan. Didn’t see a minute of league action and was then dropped in early March.

That was a serious contest :clap:

Some savage hits. Tullaroan probably hurled the better, manic work rate at times and some great scores. Shane Walsh did very well, Tommy worked his socks off, Keoghan & Gaffney at half-forward were very good too. Keeper had an absolute howler for the first goal but made an unbelievable save from TJ later.

TJ wasn’t at his absolute best but was still key, wins some amount of dirty ball. Colin Fennelly couldn’t seem to run, Eoin Cody hit a few very bad wides by his standards. Richie Reid stepped up with a couple of big scores when they needed him, Joey Holden was excellent. Ballyhale substitute, was it Kennelly, made a big impact, two points and excellent for the goal at the end.

Tulloroan should have been gutted conceding that goal, instead focused on that they were happy to get a point.

That small club shit would boil your blood at times in such circumstances.

Aye, they should have gone and tied the goalie to the posts and bate the shite out of him.

Don’t they lead the roll of honour in Kk? Different story if they were Conahy shamrocks or something

First game up senior and they draw with the All Ireland champions. I’d cut them a bit of slack

Good result. I’d back em now to be relegated though. The structure in kk is bizzare this year.

Tbf, they doubled up on Reid but he is a serious man to win ball. If they had left him one on one they’d be slated too.

They’ll come on a Tonne for the game imo and will be trouble to plenty of teams fancied above them.

They do but only won 1 senior since 1958 and that was in 1994

From what I gather that 94 team is a millstone around the necks of the current team and all teams over the past 20 years. That 94 final is regarded as one of the worst finals played in KK.

Poor result for @Locke crowd today.

Came on to find out. What was the score?

Was Portumna 2009, the only time Ballyhale have ever actually lost on TV?

Richie Reid would be a good option for Kilkenny at wing back you’d think.

He’d be way better to deliver the ball into Colin Fennelly than some of the lads Cody has been playing there these last few years.

5 point loss to OLG (B) none of whom could have been playing with the Seniors last night.

That was their Banker - Ttown & Bragget will be strong.
