Said it last week as well, really like the cut of Tommy Walsgeat full back for Kilkenny, great instincts and calm with and without the ball

Galway defenders putting their body on the line to defend in a big way.

Kilkenny have certainly been the better team over the two matches but haven’t scored a goal in either.

Galway still hanging in there.

Poor enough match. Obvious enough to anyone that knows anything about hurling that those young lads didn’t do half laps during the week.

Come on ta fuck galwy

Rugby tackle there…KK tramps.

Some bad wides from Kilkenny in the last 10 minutes or so.

KK lead by 1.

Wow. Good ending

Much better finish from substitute Cian Salmon than I gave him credit for. A salmon leap.
