Hard to top last year alright. Should be a good one anyway.

Really wanted a replay last year but could it have been as good a game again, I dunno. Cork will be hungry after it anyway

Jesus what a second half by Tipp. Ould lad is from Tipp so delighted. Did Cork come out from the dressing room after half time?

Thwre must have been some bollocking in the Tipp changing room at half time, that was an impressive turnaround. Lovely hurlin'.

Conversely, they must have opened the champagne in the Cork dressing room at half time.

Tipp had an extra man in defense first 20 mins. Let Cork first half go gung ho but dont concede goals early on. Apart obviously from the one just before half time. Then off the leash second half as Cork maxed out first half. Insane carry on

Welcome to Maigh Eo's All Ireland finals. Unreal from Tipp.

Lads that was just a spectacular second half of hurling and I don't think anyone saw it coming.

Pity for Cork that they had to be on the end of it but they were like demoralized ten minutes into the second half.

Brilliant from Tipp

Also the whole county are going to be fair fucking sorry in work tomorrow if the crowds out are anything to go by

You'd want to see the craic in Thurles here it's just brilliant

That was it exactly. Keep Cork out of the goal for the first half and then start playing but I'm still as surprised as the Cork boys with how it went

Tipp could have had it in the first half if not for all the wides, 9 I think? But they played all the hurling and their work rate in the second half was devastating. Once they slotted the first goal in it was theirs, it was blow after blow, mentally as well as in terms of the scoreline. Attack, attack, attack. Corner backs scoring long points. Cork hit the woodwork 4 times, penalty and goal chance saved, the sending off... They were just worn down as the game went on. Savage stuff.

My old man got more points driving home after the match than Cork did in the second half.

Crazy, like a switch flipped at half time.

I see Cork cancelled the homecoming. Bit bummy that

One of the most depressing 30 minutes I've ever experienced.
