Waterford GAA Thread - Mod note post #1

Fair play to Ballygunner, despite all the wides and coming back to a point and Ballyhale pulling away and then getting a goal with the last puck of the game. Great performance and well done to them, great to see.

Funking yess

How mad was that..congrats Ballygunner i was sure Ballyhale would close it out and probably deserved to but somehow BG came up with a moment of magic, what a way to win

What a way to win an All lreland. We don't make it easy for ourselves here in Waterford.. Up the Deise 👍

What a way to win,Ballygunner done a Ballyhale on it ,last second goal no way back on the Biggest day ,Perfect! 🤌We’ll done to the Gunners All Ireland Champions.🏆 The most important thing is Waterford Won an All Ireland 🏆today not just BallyGunner. Thank You!

On the way home from Croke Park ; couldn't watch much more of that football game. Thought Ballygunner had blown it but it's not over until the fat lady sings ; karma for Ballyhale. Dessie kept them in it all through; Pairic might have missed some scores but he landed some important points under pressure. Could be Waterford's year !

Congrats to ballygunner..very well taken chance at the end..dessie is class..

I'm so delighted for Ballygunnar. Ballyhale have won it plenty of times. Nice to see a new team winning it. So delighted.

Some one just pointed this out to me. After a great game of hurling and incredible finish this is the first thing Eddie Brennan tweets after the game! What a gobshite

Brennan would do well to remember his own foot in mouth episode not so long ago that cost him his Laois job.

Think you’re missing the point about Eddie Brennans tweet.

Sour grapes on Brennans part and displays a lack of class. Maybe he’s trying desperately to remain relevant.

Just home now from the game and have to say fair play to Ballygunner. I’m not a Ballygunner man and I battled with them for years but you couldn’t be anything but delighted for the club. The likes of Flynner and Fergal would have inspired the lads playing today.

I’ve seen plenty of people saying they were lucky, our own club WhatsApp blew up and the win is being branded as “poxy”. I don’t agree with that at all. If Ballyhale scored another last minute winner everyone would be saying they were brilliant because they didn’t give up. I don’t see how the narrative should change because it’s Ballygunner.

I see young Barry Coughlan is getting a bit of grief for his speech. I wish people would give it a break and have a bit of understanding. He was clearly very nervous and after what had happened probably 5 minutes before, I think it would be very difficult to compose yourself in that situation. Nothing wrong with his speech at all and who cares anyway. He’s a Waterford man delivering an all Ireland winning speech in Croke Park. Good luck to them and I hope they enjoy themselves for a few days. Best day in a very long time for Waterford hurling.

Way too much diving looking for frees in the game today

Could we see some of the guys on the line today on both sides to be the future Waterford senior management team ?

Good narrative, I doubt Barry C though he would be giving that speech wasn't the best but for FFS, hard to be composed and slick aftrra game like that ! Anyways up the gunners & Deise ABU !

Not often you walk out of croker a winner being a blaa !
