    Result
    Tipperary by 9

    If you see any mistakes, please let me know.

    So after the All Ireland season is done and dusted, the preliminary winner (i.e. before the initial predictions are taken into account) is ShamoBuc with 131 points. He finishes 2 points ahead of Free Speech who was a further point ahead of Sands81.
    For the predictions for the final, there were 18 predictions; 9 went for Tipp, 8 for Kilkenny and 1 for a draw. But only one poster (Davys Fits) got close enough to Tipp's 9 point victory to get a bonus point.

    I will tally up the initial predictions now.

    Well where in the name of Jaysus did he come from???
    The winner of the 2016 Hurling Championship Pools competition, with a Lazarus-like comeback, is padd b1975 with 138 points. After all the fixtures were complete, padd b1975 was fifth and 5 points behind ShamoBuc. But with 12 points in the initial predictions (joint highest with Claw09) he was able to overcome that deficit to win by a point. We have a three way tie for second with ShamoBuc, Free Speech and myself on 137 points.

    So congratulations to padd b1975 on the last gasp victory and thanks to everyone for playing during the championship.
    In the new year, keep an eye out for both the NFL and NHL pools competitions that I'll be running.
