[open face surgery]

Bought good games with Cork Limerick being a beast of a yoke. Great to see a shake up for the final. Same with the football semis, although Kerry are usually up there.

[CorkonianHunger]

Huge atmosphere last few days in Cork, especially today. On the eastern border and some serious show. So much so that herself (Clare native) had to head home. Big day tomorrow.

[Carnage]

Galway in both football finals now. Looking forward to two weekends of despair.

[Carnage]

Some game of hurling, best I've seen for years. Absolutely nothing between them.

[astfgyl]

Tis a smashing game so far indeed

[astfgyl]

Hard luck to Cork , they will be a bit sad about not getting the free for the jersey pull at the death there. A draw would have been fair enough. Class game anyway

[Carnage]

Yeah, definite free there and the best result would have been a draw. Still, mighty game and fair play to Clare.

[CorkonianHunger]

You have to say fair play to O'Donnell and Kelly there, and both teams were brilliant, but I can't not say we weren't robbed of two frees at the end there. Any other point in the match thats a free. Converted point and done, fair result a replay. Don't mind losing to Clare in that fashion and in that game, but serious shame about that decision at the end.

[son of the Morrigan]

Some match allright, like ye said, a draw would have been the fairest result.
Tony Kelly is going to go down as one of the greatest of all time with the stuff he's doing, outrageous.
I hope Hoggy has another year in him and has another go at it, what a legend.

[CorkonianHunger]

Horgan had some tournament.

[The Butcher]

Brilliant game, thought Cork deserved a draw and another crack at it. Thought some ref decisions were jarring to say the least, not a fan of getting a ref that's from a county so close to the 2.

[open face surgery]

Incredible game. Thought it was gonna be Cork going into it but was rooting for Clare.

[Don Gately]

Ref let the game flow, he did well, yes he missed the jersey tug but so it seems did the Cork players as no one looked for a free.
Clare were that little bit better and always looked the more likely winners but missed a few easy chances to go a few points up.
Credit to Cork, but Fitzgibbon, Dalton, O Farrell were restricted to very fee possessions.

[astfgyl]

First thing to look at there was his reaction to missing the point, not a sniff of interest in the jersey pull. He knew he should have scored it. As a neutral I'd have loved seeing the replay but fuck it I think Clare did shade it after watching the highlights again. Hope the Football is decent this weekend as well now as we were a little bit spoilt with the quality of the hurling final

[Carnage]

As a Galway man I'm hoping we can get at least one of the three titles we're still in the running for, probably have the best shot at the camogie. The most successful Galway team of the past 20+ years and that despite being treated like shite. Fair play and good luck to them in Saturday's semi.
