2006 levels of work rate v cork. When we took apart the running game
The way we sett up zonely was beautiful. With our half backs holding their positions . And our halfforwards work was of the scale. The hits and forced turnovers was the key.for a spell Kilkenny dropped their levels in the second half and limerick started to get their game going. Jesus's the wides they drove. we looked spent at that stage .but he freshened things up . And we got over the line.
Waking up in a hotel getting ready to go again is unreal.
Hope wexford can get over the line. It would be some build up

Praying that Wexford win today, that would fairly turn the Munster hurling love in on its head eh!!

Wexford are my second favorite county, great place even better people.

The Craic at the the final be unreal.

Brian Cody is a master and once again outfoxed his opposite opponent on the line. Got his match ups perfect today!

Work work work thats what we got from minors and seniors today.minor 20s and seniors all in final or semis.camogie 16s minors ans seniors all reached semis(may reach finals)some going for a small county. On a different note I thought cillian buckley was very poor when he came on (doesnt seem right to me)also richie was quiet poor scored a point and made 2 but bill sheehan was also poor in replacing richie.we will need to get the team and subs right to win it just like we did v cork.finally a privilege to follow this team.

Confused, on premier view a Kilkenny poster was saying that the hatred between Wexford and Kilkenny was 10 times that of what ye have with us in tipp but here that doesnt seem to tbe the case,.

So ye hate us both equally, kinda disappointed I was hoping we d be number 1, ye are our number 1 nobody can compete ha, hopefully natural order be resumed and a traditional final that most of the country will hate.

Fantastic Day in Croke Park yesterday. Amazing feeling after winning that match and we are so lucky to have such great teams to support. Cody is just a legend. Every player gave it their all - Minors & Seniors. Bring on the Final!

Definitely Tipp- for Wexford it’s Kilkenny but the hatred isn’t mutual as the record has been largely one sided for a lot of the time so there’s no reason to hate Wexford
Cork not exactly a love affair either- their mid 2000s were a horrible shower in my opinion

So it's Galway in Minor final. Sean McDonagh the centre forward has got MOTM. He was very good against us in the quarter final round robin thingy match

I don’t think they means in a literal sense! - it’s only a game at the end of the day ie hate being beaten by Tipp and I’m sure it’s mutual

At least Sean Cleere can't ref the final..

so now we know who we are facing.I don't see us beating that Tipp team. Their forwards are too good. If Wexford backs couldn't hold them ours won't.

Yeah. I'd say Cody is ****ting himself.

iebamm2580

Fair play to call it as ye see it, he was a disgrace, doubt he will ref us again in big game.

I must have missed the posts where you admitted you were wrong earlier in the year.

Nice year for Cody to retire beat that limerick team that looked unstoppable and beat sheedy in the final job done.

Tipp have a much easier route to the all ireland final after today... beat winners of Dublin/Laois and then Wexford)

Does it matter who refs us, we'll not get a fair deal.

You are right; kilkenny are being reffed much harder by these new batch of refs.

I'd say Tipp wouldn't mind Seanie Cleere. He seemed to bring them good luck today ðŸ˜

I fully admit, I was wrong. I don't how he managed to get us to another final. Pure genius. I hope he has another plan for Tipp.Tipp won't shoot 15 wides.
