Leinster Hurling Championship 2024

We’re doing out best to lose this

Ref making sure of a draw in Salthill.

He made them work for it during the last play.

John Donnelly a deserved MOTM. Incredible player.

He’s having some season. Must’ve taken the momentum from the Thomastown run into this season. Wasn’t even a guaranteed starter other years.

He’s become a far more consistent worker off the ball. A selfless player with hands of gold.

We’d have bitten your hand off for a draw coming into this game

Happy enough with the performance in general but we did cough up too many easy points and frees.

TJ Reid is a warrior

How does any referee get 35% added time?

Serious question simply on principle. The equivalent to this afternoon’s carry on at end by Thomas Walsh would be 12m added time before halftime. Just preposterous.

That would have been a great win. Good performance. Ref made that a draw. Harsh free on TJ and then no free against Burke doing exact same thing. Tommy Walsh very poor. Otherwise great to see young lads doing well.

I found it a bit odd alright. Be interested to see how many GAA games go more than 1 minute over the allotted injury time

He did in his fuck. Fintan Burke was fouled before the Whelan score to draw but we didn’t get the free because Niland was nailing everything.

He was in his hole, he jumped on the ground

He announced three minutes then TJ took a more than a minute standing over a free then sauntering out to the 65 to stand over that. Then an injury which stopped play another minute.

The ref raised his hand but dropped it. So he saw the free but giving it would have made a draw of it.
Whelan made a draw of it.

Distinctly odd. Question of straightforward maths, over and above individual incidents. Good luck to Galway but simply impossible to generate a 35% extra portion of time, whether in the first half, the second half or announced added time.

Just accept it, the ref got ye out of jail

He dropped it because it wasn’t a free

How exactly? From the 68th to the 71st minute the ball was in play less than 30 seconds, you think this doesn’t factor in?

KK lads seething cos Galway were Galway but it’s the refs fault they only got a draw in a round robin match.
