Galway V Kilkenny, The Replay, 28 June, 7pm. Local Radio.

Lapin

Well its looking like the only people getting to see this much anticipated encounter are those passing through the turnstiles of O'Connor Park. A shameful situation in this day and age, and a total disregard for the thousands of fans who couldn't get tickets for the 20,000 capacity ground. The excuses offered against an afternoon throw in bordered on pathetic. But anyway, enough has been written about that elsewhere.


Turning to this evening, I fear that Galway have had their chance. When was the last time the Cats lost a replay? Tonight's clash will require as much mental strength as physical prowess and while Galway have both in abundance I think Kilkenny have that extra edge.


Galway will arrive in Tullamore full of deserved self belief following their magnificent comeback last Saturday and I expect them to put it up to Kilkenny again and give them a tough challenge but I have a feeling the Cats will return home tonight two or three points in profit.


Although it wouldn't surprise me if this one goes to extra time.

Completely forgot about that.

Still though, it's very rare for your lot not to take the spoils in a replay.

Second days out don't seem to suit Galway.

There is some scandalous "seat keeping" going on here in the stand in Tullamore. People keeping two or three seats beside them free for friends who'll arrive later on!

Tommy for Power the only change?

WarZoneBrother

Anyone know is there any streams for this or if it's possible to watch the match at all?

Pretty sure there is none. It's radio or nothing.

Really is a farce. GAA should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.

Gaillimh Abú!

Are RTE showing the Brazil game on their player instead of the Galway game ?

Fireball07

Some interesting changes... Joey Holden is more of a back, isn't he?

Walsh to half-forward, Buckley to midfield, Holden to half-back?

Yes.

Yup, can't be shown due to clashing with Skys coverage of the Ulster football tonight. Rte can't moan to much, as they refused to cover the Dublin v Kilkenny game at the same stage last year, and the subsequent replay. (TV3 also passed on those games).

GET IN !!!

Diabhal Beag

Can't believe I'm missing a game that's 1-1 to 1-1 already

statesaver

Was thinking it had something to do with Sky.

Thargor

Is this not being streamed live anywhere, video I mean I see the RTE radio stream?

h2005

Such a ****ing joke. Biggest game of the year and it not being shown anywhere.

Lapin

Score of the Championship by Iarla Tannion.

Orizio

Incredible incredible game.

Lapin

Eoin Murphy injury worry.

Diabhal Beag

2 points in Clones and a stalemate in extra-time in Brazil. Somebody hates us up there.

ispini1984

at least we can listen to it on radio online

statesaver

Is that 5 unanswered points for Kilkenny ?

ispini1984

1-7 to 1-5 for kilkenny

Ref wearing a KK jersey, absolute disgrace.

sure is, how can the KK players tell the ref apart from their own? Could he turn it inside out?

Lapin

What the hell is Callinan at ?

statesaver

9 points from frees. FFS Galway

Duiske

Only 2 points for KK from play is a bit worrying.

It'll be enough if Galway keep fouling, perhaps some of those fouls would have lead to points from play....wouldn't read too much into it

statesaver

A bit more discipline from Galway wouldn't go astray.

Lapin

Fair play to FIFA for scheduling the Brazil v Chile game so that the penalty shoot out took place during half time in the hurling.

Clever forward thinking there.

You have to admire that.

Frig it.

Time left?

statesaver

10 mins

Lapin

11 mins left

Peppa

about 10 mins normal time I think. 7 pts between them still

Fireball07

Shur, that's plenty of time for a comeback if they can get the goals. Can't see KK making the same mistakes 2 weeks in a row, would be very unlike them.

Lapin

Cats ahead by six points with nine minutes left.

Sheflin on for Tommy Walshe.

Lapin

Five points in it now with seven minutes left
