    Cannot question the heart of Clare

    I’d have been very critical of them all year but Jesus they gutted the season out. Maybe not the most ‘talented’ group but to have game changers like Tony Kelly and Shane O’Donnell that can turn a game out of nothing is some gem to have

    That was class!

    If we didn't win it this year I think we'd have lost our chance for a while.

    One of the great games, end to end shoot out that everyone hoped for.

    I was critical of cleary earlier on in the year, he was brilliant today, and the last few games. The pulling and dragging that I complained about was kept to a minimum and he has actually attacked the ball. Our defence as a whole has been brilliant but living on the edge too. Leen was class today. Conlon had the game of his life. MoM in my opinion.

    Kelly was class. He had a game his stature deserved. He was kind of been written off because he didn't perform in croker. O donnell had a spell in the first half to match his 'hurlers of the year' credentials. But kinda disappeared then. So the fact we won without him being on his best is great. Diarmuid Ryan was brilliant, mcinerney was brilliant.

    Not bad for a team that were on the cusp of a slaughtering from the greatest team since the invention of hurling .....the golden Miller....or maybe the tin foil Miller as he should be know!

    Up the **** banner !

    I suppose you are going to despise Clare even more now?

    It's fun to hate your rivals before and during a match but if you are losing sleep about them afterwards you need to cop on. All will be forgiven until we meet in the league next year.

    O’Connors Segway was the greatest 1-3 segway since Brian Whelehan’s shift to the forward line in the 98 all Ireland. Both having low impact before that.

    Kelly was Roy of the Rovers today hats off to him and the manager who has gotten a lot of hate too.

    Conlon and Kelly absolutely immense. Still going strong at the end of 100-odd minutes of hurling. Simply incredible.

    People had been talking about Cork’s Barrett as potential hurler of the year, but Clare halfback line was superb.

    Congratulations to Clare. Being of a certain age, I remember the bad days. And even when things looked to be going well, along came Cork.

    A proud day for Feakle to see Quilligan and Hogan lift the cup together and play so well over 100 minutes.

    Tony Kelly showed class is permanent.

    And special mention for Peter Duggan - not many can cut like that.

    The heroes of 95 and 97 have now delivered 2 more All Irelands. What a legacy.

    thanks for all the messages at the end of the game, we may not see a day like today for decades again

    Such is the reason I pulled the piss out of the Limerick as they will probably be back next year

    Corkman here, well done to ye. I watched Pat Ryan's Sunday Game interview and I was glad he didn't mention anything about the referee. It would have looked like sour grapes and I'd hate if we were thought of as sore losers. It was a free to us at the end but we didn't get it, no point cribbing about it now. Ye have been a more consistent team than us over the last few years and have been building towards and an All-Ireland challenge. Also a bit more balanced, a better defence than us, we were relying on out-scoring the opposition rather than keeping scores out at the back. That worked in every game up to now but it didn't work yesterday. If one of our forwards had scored a goal we would have won I think. But ye were good at the back yesterday in fairness.

    Was a game that could have gone either way. I think we played the ball out with more control once we settled and that killed Cork in the last few minutes. Corks reliance on long high ball did work but not enough.
