Carlow had one or two chances to seal it before that but made a balls of them.

Holy fuck

Carlow :grinning::grinning::grinning:

Jesus you’d think Carlow IT would have dropped everyone back on the line there. Amazing finish to the game.

And there are lads who want to get rid of the Fitzgibbon.

NUIG the big winners tonight.

Hard to believe nobody even got a touch to it. It wasn’t a rocket like TJ’s. Was more a floater that dipped.

They’ll be lads taking pot shots at goal from all distances now.

Here we go UL here we go

You’d be disappointed not to save it but Top spin & a few bodies in the way. Still a great shot to be fair.

Teams don’t really practice set piece defending very much and often times defenders sort of abdicate responsibility to the keeper who’s unsighted as everyone gets in each others way

The number one thing to do is to have enough goalie hurlers in the goal for everyone on the line

They didn’t really fill the goal at all though. Didn’t take the safety in numbers approach anyway. Someone had roared in to take the point just before he hit it😂

I don’t know about that. Giving lads hurleys that they’ve never used before to block the ball could be counter productive

Putting corner backs on the line ain’t the answer either. Its a place for ballers.

Box out all the lads running across is rule 1. Nobody should score from 50 yards out as long as no one get inside

Delighted to see my beloved alma mater in another final. College pride.

Carlow should have cleared ball in lead up to free.

It’s probably slightly preferable to see Castletroy College in the final than Carlow Tech

‘More palatable’ would be exact phrase to use.
