Why can’t you just bite the bullet and just admit that atm Tipp are shit. Might be the first step to recovery

An awful pity that Derek couldn’t get more out of Stephen Bennett back around 2016/17 when they were very close to the Holy Grail. He only really became a significant player for them at senior level in 2018 when Waterford had a down year in the round robin. The player he has developed into is exactly what the 2017 team was lacking.

A massive independent review of Tipperary GAA is needed - both the senior hurlers and footballers are in an awful state - can’t see the county board getting much response looking for €1k from each club.
Tipp are shite, worse than bad but that doesn’t mean I have to pontificate about the state of modern hurling either.
Tipp were worse than anyone at throwing the ball today.
Laughable.

Sure didn’t each club get 10k plus from JP, surely they won’t refuse the call from the county board?
You’re implying that Tipp are shite because the rest of the hurling world have moved on and no longer play the game that Tipp are accustomed to. It’s time for ye to piss or get off the pot

Tipp are the worst throwing team in the game. The amount of turnovers they give away from trying to give a proper hand pass is criminal.
Anyway, they are brutal no matter what form of the game is played.

This current Tipp team would be shite in any form of the game, that doesn’t mean I enjoy the way the game is played.
What was Davy’s problem?
I didn’t see the game but I’ve just seen the last incident now.
I’d say the Lino told Gordon via the wireless that it was a 65 and the umpire took instruction from Gordon because he hadn’t actually seen it.
What’s anyone’s problem with this - it was clearly the right call.

It’s correct, based on scoring difference as three teams on four points. Not that it really matters.
What happens if Clare lose and Waterford draw? 3 teams on 4.
His problem was losing to Clare for the umpteenth time in championship since he was ousted.

65 was taken about a yard ahead of the line. Happens all the time but an excuse to have a go
Clare out on scoring difference. Limerick v Cork Munster Final.
Those goal chances for Clare today were comedy gold.
I think Davy wanted them to hurl with multiple sweepers as is his style but because the players revolted they dont do that anymore.
But they’re not conditioned to having to mark and cover space properly so defensively they’re a shit show.

Tipp are absolutely useless as has been mentioned numerous times by every Tipp poster on the forum.
We actually had a few Limerick’s trying to build up Tipp at various stages, saying “I like this guy and that guy” (the same fellas who’ll tell you Darragh Fitzgibbon doesn’t have it) but the plain hurling people of Tipperary who know their stuff have been unequivocal for some time and have been proven right.

Umpire went to lift both his arms as if it was a wide signal and then stopped and followed instruction from someone in his eye shot and signalled a 65. I didn’t see it earlier either but that’s what the Sunday Game coverage just showed
Fuck sake - that’s ridiculous. Idiotic.
Sure no puck out is legit.
And Rodgers could’ve hit it from a yard behind and it would make no difference.
