Are they fuck. Theyâve spent the whole week talking down their chances.
Exactly there ex players have been in the papers all week.
Drove in through Clonard and on by the park this morning. The tension and expectation in the area is palpable.
The Park is in magnificent condition.
The sun is shining.
Weâre ready.
Thatâs probably just the St Peterâs chaps all nervous about Maths Paper 1 later.
Last time Kilkenny went into a game in as poor a position. ( in the opinion of the public) was 1998 when Dublin were expected to turn them over in Parnell Park.
Kilkenny won 4-28 to 1-11.
A get off the fence Fagan
Before Cody (BC) that one though .
Wasnât that the return of DJ after his earlier retirement? In Parnell Park too - edit, youâve mentioned the venue
We had two of our lads in the Dubs lineout in fairness
The worst thing for Wexford would be if they annihilated Kilkenny, two soft games leading up to a meeting with a strong physical team like Galway wonât do them any good. Hopefully Kilkenny manage to stay with them and battle for around 55 minutes, before Wexfords superior hurling and fitness sees them pull away comfortably.
Who were they? I presume Eamonn Morrissey was one. Who was the other?
Was it Jamesie Brennan?
Correct. I just googled it there
Thatâs him.
Aye, and between them they accounted for 8 of the 14 points scored by Dublin.
Iâd be fully behind Wexford if anybody other than that midget fuck Davy fitz was over them. Hopefully Kilkenny win by 35 points.
Jackieâs article in the Irish Times today is good. In fairness he gives a good insight into what life is like under Cody, what way they prepared themselves etc.
Collectively, our attitude was: âWe have Wexford by the throat and theyâre under the water now â keep their head down until thereâs no more bubbles.â
Jeysuz, they make the Underwoodâs look like lambs!
All carried out in a bland, inoffensive way now mind
