Tipp 5-17 Waterford 1-21
Cats 2-18 Cork 1-20

Tipp 3-15 Deise 2-20

Cork 1-20 Killkenny 3-19... and I fancy Waterford to win it out. I know they are poor defensively but with Dan back firing they have a top class forward line

Waterford have no chance of winning the all ireland because their so called defense would not stop sheep in a gap

Doesn't matter what you concede as long as you score more;)

I seriously cant understand why people are saying that Dan is back on form, he eventually scored 1-1 off Wexfords 3rd choice full back and he completely mis**** the goal

If the Cork backs can keep KK to 1-14 i'll run naked around Croke Park :eek:, or is 1-14 what you expect just Shefflin to score?

Cork 2-22 Cats 3-19

Back firing my hole. He scored a point, missed another easy one and fluffed a goal.

Wheres this stuff about fluffing a goal coming from? Have a look at the replay & you might think otherwise. Then look at his goals last year & see how they were placed in the farthest corner of the net - nearly identical to last Sundays goal. Fluffed my hole.
Personally I don't give a crap if hes never 'back firing' if he keeps scoring 1-1 from play.

I stood behind that goal and watched him mis hit the ball and then see it bounce in off the post.

If you're looking for pretty get last year's videos. This year, winning ugly is the order of the day .....
Dan's ball fetching on sunday was a big improvement on earlier this year even if he has a long way to go to reach last years heights. Don't forget it was him who won the 21 yard free for Kelly's goal.



Waterford 3-21 Tipp 5-14
KK 4-17 Cork 2-18

Who is looking for pretty anything? I am only disputing the claim that Dan Shanahan is back firing.

Yeah just saw the highlights, definitley not a clean strike, I think it takes a slight deflection

I'm fair sick of hearing this rubbish about Dan being back on form. He put in a huge effort against Wexford and got very little for it. The reason for this was he's nowhere near as sharp this year as he was last year.

I'm not knocking him just for the sake of it, I will never forget what he has done for Waterford, especially over the last few years. But he wasn't back to form against Wexford. The goal was fairly lucky enough and he made a pile of mistakes.
Hopefully it will have given him the confidence to go on and do more against Tipp, he'll need to do some serious work over the next few weeks.

Tipp 2-16 Waterford 3-18

Waterford are 4/1 to win by 1-3 points.
I'll be having 50 on that!

Kilkenny by 3, Waterford by 1, and collective heart failure in the South East on September 7th

Tipperary 2-22 Waterford 3-13

If Tipp play as well as they did in Munster i strongly fancy them to beat Waterford.

Kilkenny and Cork will be a very interesting one. You'd have to fancy KK on their form over the last few years, but i wouldn't rule out Cork. They certainly will go on fighting till the end, and will be a series test for KK.

Morrisseeee

My prediction of the Cork/KK wasn't tooooo far out.
Some other predictions weren't bad either, but no one got it spot on.
Still can't see Tipp been beaten.......sorry Waterford fans, (as I though it was really unfortunate ye didn't get into the final last year).

CyberDave

For the remaining semi, I predict Tipp 1-23, Waterford 0-19.
