Wet and windy conditions being given. We’ll see if the Saffers like it up 'em on a cold November Thursday in Cork!

19 points to 18. Cork beat Waterford by a point in the semifinal and lost by 3 to Kilkenny in the final. Which also gave rise to four smiley faces.

Is it true that the attendance tonight will be larger than any GAA game at PuC since its redevelopment?

@Thomas_Brady as our man on the ground - could you run the numbers please?

Ive no idea but you’d imagine a province playing a country should attract a larger crowd than two irish counties… Rubby must be in an even worse state than i thought if this is being chalked up in the win column.

I’m after getting a junket down to this; free bed, board, and booze. Be rude to say no

You know your stuff mate. Must be why you’re the most prolific poster on the Munster rugby thread.

Ah they ran out of the space in the stadium to fit in any more. They’d have sold a heap more tickets if they could.

I can understand alright that with the sort of small town mentality you articulated there - which I assume is common across GAA circles or at least in Limerick/Cork - that they don’t really aim big in terms of filling their own stadia.

I’d imagine so that they just built the stadium to that capacity for the odd rugby game every couple of years or for the summer concerts? Shrewd.

It’s not really fair of you to selectively compare crowd attendances against a weaker GAA county like Cork.
