Percisely and the text in bold is excellently put, I am sure the KK posters here would say the exact same thing. Incidentally its exaclty how I would call the Munster Final as a Tipp man as well.

They might say it but they'll expect to win. Wexford just can't put up big scores. Limerick and Kilkenny could win well today.

Wexford minors win leinster for the first time since 1985. The future is bright the future is purple and gold

Losing today is not the end of the world

Tipp won the Minor Football AI for the first time since 1934 in 2011. Waterford won the Minor Hurling title in 2014, their first in 65 years. So lets hold off saying the future is bright until they win something at Senior, underage success doesn't always translate well to Senior

Donal Og borrowed the suit from the 3rd Reich.

Yes. Never understood it

I'd love to love anything as much as Anthony Daly loves hurling.

Jesus, it's very brown. He's the only one of the three of them that had the jacket closed for some reason.

The amount of smugness from Liam Sheedy if Tipp win today

Think Limerick will get over the line

The White Feather

I think Tipp will beat Limerick with a few points to spare. That's just a gut feeling!

Mantis Toboggan

Limerick rested with their main men back at home should be enough for the win.

RMAOK

With that breeze, tipp would want to be up by about 6 at halftime

The White Feather

This game really needs a goal.


As I type Tipp get one!

RMAOK

Good goal for tipp, but limerick's defense went AWOL

ShamoBuc

Great goal, parting of the red sea helped.

Noveight

Cian Lynch greedy twice now.

Good Tipp goal.

The White Feather

How did Gillane not get a goal there

ShamoBuc

Limerick seen to be overplaying their passing game, lots of short passing going astray.

ShamoBuc

Monster puckout.

ShamoBuc

Limerick badly needed that goal, nice flick finish.

callaway92

Why the Hogan so fcking slow getting off his line there?

EDIT: He stayed on his line...what the hell

Noveight

Great first half so far.

The White Feather

Great play from Gillane there. Made up for missing the goal earlier!

Outstanding save.

haha big time!

RMAOK

This is the thing I don't agree with the advantage rule - if you get the shot away then your advantage is over imo. Should have been a 65 instead of a 20 meter free

Agreed. That’s how I thought it worked all along.

zetecescort

was this supposed to be a sellout? looks like plenty room still on the terraces

threeball

Tipp not playing well and still level. Some very simple fixes at half time will make a big difference

The White Feather

No I like the advantage rule. If I get fouled and I'm falling but still try to hit it over and miss I should get the free. If I don't score then you get the advantage by fouling me.It would be worth it to foul me and hope I miss the shot I take while falling.

If I'm fouled and don't take a shot as I would use up my advantage then what happens if the ref didn't think it was a free at all. I could have at least had a shot while falling.

Hope I explained this ok :pac:


Tipp really lost their way near the end of the half. Limerick are in a great position now but lot of hurling left!!

ScummyMan

Still fancy tipp to win this well if they can get their forwards into the game. About as poor a half as they have played in a long time and still only 2 points down.

dodderangler

Good first half. Some good hits and decent points being taken but tipp could be a lot better. Could win this game if they come out swinging second half.

Mantis Toboggan

Limerick on a different level so far, power pace and work rate is phenomenal. Tipp will be happy if they can get out of this with no more injuries.

OldMrBrennan83

Did Tipp not have a strong wind for the first half?

BazBox

Limerick are some team. Tipp had the breeze there and go in behind. Limerick not giving them a sniff hope they push on in the 2nd half

Yes they did

MfMan

They’re not let play. LK pressurizing very impressive. Paudie Maher getting a good doing, slow as a snail when being moved around.

Davys Fits

I wish Canning and Duignan would just shut up. They are constantly behind whats going on and confusing what are some lovely tackles with poor hurling.

Ompala

Truth be told tis a poor game so far.

Tipp are better suited against a wind. Limerick should be further ahead

Exactly this. They're a small forward line, booming high balls into them with the wind is exactly what limerick want

Leaving too much space up the middle too which they flooded two weeks ago.

Mantis Toboggan

All those frees from Byrnes are actually fouls, he's fouling the ball on the lift.

How so?

RMAOK

How many more times will ger canning tell us that diarmuid Byrnes is an LIT student? :rolleyes:

Noveight

Brian Hogan’s some shot stopper!
