Two bad wides for Dublin there.
Pressure is too much for them.

dancarter · September 18, 2011, 1:35pm

Great win for Tipp.

Piles_Hussain · September 18, 2011, 1:35pm

Thats the team of the year right there.
Beaten Kerry, Cork, and now Dublin.
Underdogs all the way. Fair play to them

Fagan_ODowd · September 18, 2011, 1:36pm

Unbelievable scenes. What a goal to win a final.

Watch_The_Break · September 18, 2011, 1:37pm

If the senior final is half as good as that! Brilliant game. Have to give credit to Tipp for staying in it when Dublin looked like pulling away. Efficiency up front won it for them.

Julio_Geordio · September 18, 2011, 1:37pm

Dublin choke in croke park shocker.
Terrible decision making and shooting by the dubs towards the finish

KIB_man · September 18, 2011, 1:38pm

fair play to mac, he called the tipp minors from a long way off . huge victory for Tipp. They must be doing some work at both sports there underage. Just shows both sports can co-exist easily in counties

Mullach_Ide · September 18, 2011, 1:39pm

Fucking hell, just fucking hell…

fenwaypark · September 18, 2011, 1:40pm

congrats to tipp, i cant but feel sorry for the dublin dual players who have lost their second final in the space of three weeks.

fenwaypark · September 18, 2011, 1:40pm

+1

dancarter · September 18, 2011, 1:42pm

They have JOhn Egan as full time director of football do they not? Just goes to show what can be done with a bit of focus at all levels.

Watch_The_Break · September 18, 2011, 1:43pm

Same here, very hard on them. Some victory for the underdog it must be said though, they were 16/1 in running apparently.

Mac · September 18, 2011, 1:47pm

There’s a load of Kerry lads working in the background anyway as far as I know.

KIB Mans point about sports co-existing is very relevant.

Even though Tipp won I’d expect more of the Dublin players to make an impact at senior level. Some super footballers in their team.

The 2 Tipp subs scored 1-5 between them - that’s unreal.

Turenne · September 18, 2011, 1:49pm

Grats to Tipp, Dublin didn’t deserve to lose though. Two fine teams.

mick_jones · September 18, 2011, 2:05pm

Ah lovely, just fuckin lovely. Big up to Colin O’Riordan, N Tipp’s Kennedy Cup keeper 2 years ago but always wanted to play gaelic for Tipp, 2 more years at this level. Well done Tipp county board, David Power, John Evans etc. Hard luck Dubs, losing 2 in 2 weeks is cruel, hope they win the senior. Up Tipp…

Wasn’t there a big fall out between both the Tipp minor hurling and football managers and didn’t one of the McGrath’s walk off the minor hurling panel at one stage this year due to it. Don’t think it is a case that both co-exist without any problems
