Jayz, just read that Farrell broke his leg in training during the week. Both Wexford teams seem to be plagued with injuries.
Colour clash so both teams playing in their county strips. Wexford creamery will be happy.
Half of those Counsel filthpigs should be wearing Kilkenny jerseys. I’m tentatively supporting them all the same as there’s some untainted Wexicans playing for them. What a crap time to have the game on by the way.
great to see ml o hanlon back playing
Counsel’s defending since the start has been terrible. Giving Thurles forwards too much time and space and too much tippy tappy hurling. Get rid of it.
And get the ball in quick to the forwards.

Some super hurling from both sides though. The Counsel #5 has been fantastic.
Jesus the Good Council lad made an awful balls of that penalty…
awful miss from alyward… feel sorry for him…
Walter Walsh causing mayhem when he gets the ball near the goal. Won the penalty there that Aylward messed up.
3 points in it at half time-Counsel will have the wind in the 2 half.
Bit of a blow there. Some serious forwards on the Thurles side. Counsel full back-line could do with lowering the blade a little.
Hopefully Aylward can clear his head and get over that miss. Counsel will need him popping over some scores if they’re to win it.
Counsel will need one of their trademark strong late finishes to win this.
Thurles seem to have a bit more class in their forwards…Good Council having to work harder for their scores
A goal is what they need. They seem to be banking on that Walter Walsh lad catching a ball and sticking it though.
I understand the Wexford Minor Hurling team is pretty serious this year?
Shit or bust time…
What would you do here?
That ref’s a steps freak - we had him in Casement in the league and he was blowing on the fourth step at times. This will be a real sickener for Counsel. The Thurles #13 has been the difference but still Counsel had their chances to win it.
Thurles win it
alyward wont sleep tonight…
