All Ireland Senior Hurling (Liam Mccarthy Cup) 2019

Snow Garden

Tipp were supreme in 2nd half. Sending off was justified but really ended the game as a contest. A final and speeches to forget after very emotional finals in 2018 and 2017.

So Shefflin was never marked ever? It looked to me that Paudie Maher and Kennedy were mopping up every ball that came down on that half-back line. Henry would always conjure up something from play regardless.

As in when it’s 6 against 3 in the back line, the odds are true defenders will come out with the ball. I never said Shefflin wasn’t man marked, just not the same amount of attention that TJ gets. Just look at the Wexford games and Matthew o hanlon on TJ. Didn’t leave his side.

Congrats to Tipp. Absolutely no ambiguity about the merit of their victory.

After ~21mins we were 0-08 to 0-03 ahead, which was never going to be indicative. But I wouldn't have foreseen such a trimming for us.

Nice touch by the Tipp management - all the lads outside the panel had the number 26 jersey

Not a chance. He's retired and doesn't strike me as the type sit around twiddling his thumbs.

He's challenging Barry McGuigan and Mr Eastwood for the thanks.

Was Martin Comerford not captain that year?

Would they stop mentioning the red card... it had zero impact on the game.... Tipp have much better hurlers

Ha ha the camera man must be a Tipp man! Picture all over the place..
Well done Tipp. Second half their passing was spectacular. Right or wrong on the sending off changed the game..
We still have our camogie team to support. Flags can still fly..
But today, Tipperary were the well deserved winners..

There is no need to thank nearly everyone in tip in the speeches, should be saved for the homecomming speech,

People complain about that every year but unless you just say thanks to everyone and specify no in particular it’s imoossible to avoid. Maybe you could say Liam Sheedy and back room team but selectors are probably entitled to a mention. If you mention them hard not to say coaches and so on. Hard to draw a line somewhere.

If you’re the captain you would rather annoy people you don’t know than upset someone who worked with you all year.

The pitch side interviews on Sky Sports are very good I have to say.

Congrats to Tipp

Shows just how good Sheedy is as a manager. Cant see Cody walking away like this

I completely agree - to say it on the day in the stadium is the right thing to do. It’s the culmination of a years hard work by a lot of people including the players and backroom team - they all deserve that moment

Seadin

After today Tipp aren't the bottlers that analysts have made them out to be against kk on the past encounters. Beat them well in 2010, 2016 and 2019. 2014 could have gone their way too. The hex is over.

Sorry Richie didn’t realize u were on boards....

The red card definitely decided the game but it was a red.
Richie Hogan a great player but an idiot for that needless red.

Unbelievable managerial performance by Sheedy. Tipp totally written off and seen as over the hill and to comeback and win an All-ireland today is unreal.

One last point - the amount of scutter Kilkenny fans have talked in this thread over the last while, I hope ye're all thoroughly sickened - up the Premier

leahyl

Well done Tipp, great hurling from them today, really just delighted they bate Kilkenny off the field :-P

You’re either deluded or on a wind-up if you think that red didn’t affect the game.

Which is it?

Neat follow up there with the second most stupid... etc

Shefflin is so salty

Understandable I suppose. Too close to those lads on the field. RTE shouldn't really have him there.

Anyone trying to justify Hogan's tackle or saying that the ref should have let it go need to cop themselves on.

I think you can make a good case that it probably would have had zero effect on the result ie Tipp would have won anyway, but to say it had zero effect on the game is something else. Literally and figuratively.

RicketyCricket

Shefflin shouldn't be doing analysis at all. So biased.

BrianBoru00

Will someone take Henry Shefflin out of the studio quickly. Making a complete and utter eejit out of himself

leahyl

How could Brendan Maher say it was a harsh red card if he “wasn’t really sure what happened”

Seadin

Shefflin cant hide his disappointment.

Mervyn Skidmore

I'm trying to understand the mental gymnastics going on in Shefflins head...

Feeling generous. Must be in a good mood for some reason.

Fair enuf comment

castletownman

This was more of a hammering than Kilkenny vs Waterford in 2008 considering both teams had experience of an AI final.

My apologies lads... meant the result of the game....

Prestonites

Really took light just before the goal, callinan relatively quiet in the first half, bubbles handling we impressive. Sending off changed the whole trajectory of the game. Soaked to the bone, home to shower then off to coppers to pull meself a elated premier female or a dejected Pussy (Cats reference) .

Well done Tipp

It had a massive impact.

corny

I was surprised how one dimensional and ineffective Kilkenny were in the second half. I'd be hard convinced Hogan staying on the pitch would have cured that tbh.

Tipp worthy winners and obviously the more talented team. More natural hurlers Henry.;)

threeball

Sending off had a big impact but Tipp were already in the driving seat having weathered the early exchanges. There was only going to be one winner today 15 v 15 or 15 v 14. KK could have had 17 in that second half and they'd still have struggled.
