Match Thread - Clare v Cork All Ireland Hurling Final Replay

Mr. G

Clare need an extra point just to be safe before half time.

Davy fitz aint looking happy

awec

Cork coming back in to this.

conor.hogan.2

Ref is keeping cork in this.

keith16

I don't know how that wasn't a free out for Clare....

awec

O'Donnell should have gone for a point there rather than another goal.

Mr. G

They had it!

Ref is for cork definately

keith16

Massive moment in the match just now.....ref is having influence unfortunately.

Professey Chin

Fcukin hell I need a drink :pac:

1 game all star for O'Donnell?

Meangadh

Four points isn't a whole lot, Cork clawing their way back. Jesus thought O'Donnell had another one for a second there!

Dyr

Shockig ref, a litany of cork fouls ignored there

SillyMangoX

How was a free not given for the fowl on Podge?!

Yeah looked dodgy, would like to see it again.

dastardly00

well that first half lacked a bit of excitement .... :pac: :pac:

Mountainlad

This game has been unreal so far. Amazing stuff, hope it continues in the same vein.

Podge Collins vision is something else.

Lapin

Strange as it may seem after their display, the half time whistle was more of a relief to Clare than Cork.

Professey Chin

Football final was better
























:pac:

Kerrydude1981

Wow.

Half time already,that just flew by.

Cork will be happy to be still in touch after that blitz by Clare

Didn't see the bird on his shoulder myself :-)

Ref looks to be trying to let the game flow. Lots of fouls not been given

KevIRL

Cork hanging on in there again all the same. Will be well happy to get in only 4 points down at HT, Clare could be out of sight

Ah c'mon I'm on the phone and the excitement was getting the better of me :P

Fireball07

Some of the defending has been pathetic. I mean it is a really exciting game, but Clare seem to be relapsing into the sloppy passing out of defence that cost them earlier in the season.... Bugler/McInerney have both given horrible passes out of defence.

As for Cork, they can't handle direct running through the middle or the likes of O'Donnell.


Pat Horgan has been excellent, Lehane has looked lively, McInerney has been very good, Conlon getting involved a lot.

How are Clare not out of sight

I think Cork will just do this

Have to agree , the ref seems to be trying his best to keep the score close. Some blatant fouls ignored, soft frees for cork. (That's from a neutral)

JONJO THE MISER

Clare need to get more of the puck outs, need to drive on, first 5 minutes of the 2nd half will be vital for either team going forward.

3 goals, one off his right, one off his left, and one off his centre. Huge skill.

Football Final was a droll affair if you weren't from either Mayo or Dublin.

As a corkman who lives in cork the rubbish being spouted today and the past weeks has been nothing short of biased rubbish.

clare have been the better team in the game and a half so far, couple that with the small minded mentality of biased cork fans who let their parochial small mindedness blinker everything and abuse others who dare to question them.

Mr. G

Ah jesus, you're man was a pure foul before the half time.

They'll get a soft point out of this now

JONJO THE MISER

Clare are just catching none of the puck outs.

keith16

Referee is an absolute disgrace.

JONJO THE MISER

This is a joke.

awec

What the hell?

Professey Chin

Cork getting the decisions benefit. Few soft frees
