Ugh stupid draw, really wanted Antrim for Galway just for the sake of getting past the qualifiers...I think we're well able to beat Cork...if on form...and playing the whole duration of the match.

Oh and Galway v Clare yesterday was very good for a Galway supporter.

Satisfactory end to todays stage in the tour. So happy Contador didn't win.

Mark Cavendish is an awful sore winner. I hope anybody but him wins the green jersey. Preferably Hushovd though.

Tomorrows the big day lads, tomorrows the big day!
Im absolute terrified and ive butterflies having a disco in my tummy but Im really looking forward to it!
Please God/Allah let us win, it would mean avoiding both Tipp and Kilkenny in the semi which would be oh so sweet

Come on Tipp. A win for Tipp means we play Limerick in the Quarters and the winner plays Tipp in the Semi. If Waterford win then it will be pretty confusing.

Doesnt matter who wins Unknown, you'll be playing Limerick in the quarter!
And altho Im not 100% if we beat Tipp and yee win your quarter, we play yee in the semi!

Bring it lads! :P

If Tipp win, I know we play Limerick with the winner facing Tipp but I don't know what happens if Waterford win. I presume we play limerick and the winner faces Waterford.

Ya.. I don't get the whole 'if waterford win..' coz limerick have played waterford already so the semi's confuse me.. But ya.. see you in the quarter finals unknown buzzin' for it!

Kind of. Footballers are taking on wexford tomorrow, so I am pumped for that but I think we are going to tear them apart and win by a comfortable margin.

I will get a buzzing around the time of the match but I doubt I will go to it. Most likely go to the Football quarter final instead.

Yawww but from what I can gather we'd play Limerick before Tipp in the semis because we cant play the same team 2 times in a row!

So basically lawds if Waterford win, the winner outta the 2 of yee is facing us! Unless Galway beat Tipp in the other semi, then they could face us and yee Kilkenny


(It is very complicated)

I was under the impression Galway would be facing Kilkenny in the semi's no matter who they beat in the quarter finals. trying to figure out fixtures is confusing...

Quite excited about the Munster final today, I'm not sure who I want to win, it's hard to know who Galway would fare better against. I still think with Waterford there's a first time for everything...

@deise: Lolololololol!

Slow Show

I feel so sorry for deise. :pac:

BUT I think Galway now have the best chance in years of reaching the semi final. But not certain at all, Waterford could err come back thirsty...

soccymonster

John mullane did limerick the biggest favour when he scored that last minute goal in thurles a few weeks back... Tipp were just amazing! Although they were taking the piss replacing brendan cummins :rolleyes: i dunno what to say really... It was a destruction!

SarahBeep!

When's Deise back?? I wanna laugh at her :P

Two shít performances by Dublin and Waterford today. Tipp were outstanding and Wexford were ok but Dublin should have beaten them by much more.

Seen Tipp and Kilkenny in the past two weeks. Tipp are definitely the better team and I find it impossible seeing them not playing in September.

That football draw just now was bad, the third round draw is all teams from the same province.

soccymonster

People are saying the winner's of dublin/limerick face tipp no matter what. If this is true, i'm not sure if its the best thing for limerick to beat dublin and get an ass whooping like 09. It'll be the EXACT same as 2009. Gah..

And deise.. I'm sympathize wit you

I can't see Limerick beating Dublin. Dublin are better than Limerick but I don't expect Dublin to win well though.

Slow Show

Meh Dublin are no better than Limerick. Not saying Limerick are better either but there's very little between the teams, should be an interesting game.

I went to the Dublin- Wexford match today, I think I was a bad omen for them or something. Poor sexy-Wexy.

In other news, Oxo have made a new cube in honour of the Waterford Hurlers. It's called the "Laughing Stock". lol so funnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyyy.

And there was me expecting it to be a cracking match. Once Tip scored the first 2 goals, the match was kinda dead. I was expecting Waterford to be way better but ya gotta hand it to Tipp, they were pretty good to give credit where credit's due.

Lar Corbett's some man though. What was it he scored, 4-4 or something out of the 7-19 or whatever the final score was.

Hard luck deise, there's always next year I s'pose and ye have the game against Galway to look forward to in a few weeks so all hope's not lost just yet.:)

RHunce

I went outside after watching the 5th goal go in as it was game over then but I'm just after looking at the final score! 7 goals! :eek:

It would do a world of good for Limerick not to meet Tipp again like 09, they'd blitz them!

The footballers look to have a nice draw that could lead to a possible AI Semi

Depends who they get in the Quarters though. They can't play Kerry and they won't want to play Dublin. If they get the winner of Roscommon / Mayo or Derry / Donegal, they have a chance.

LilMissCiara

This is the first time I've posted in this thread (and it'll probably be the last! :P) but who are Roscommon playing in the Connaught final on Sunday and is it gaelic or hurling?

Thanks!

bluejay14

Ciara, I think it's Mayo in the football final.
