    No its not!!!

    Both games are on Sunday May 28th, Laois v Wexford is in Portlaoise (2pm) while Galway v Dublin is in Tullamore (4pm)

    my bad looked it up wrong. A double header would make the most sense but its the GAA were talking about

    Can't imagine it makes any odds to Dublin or Galway whether its Tullamore or Portloaise. Would nearly fill Portlaoise - I'm assuming Laois have home draw here.

    Which is why I favour an open draw. As others have pointed out the group qualifiers were a disaster, Almost killed interest in the championship until semi finals.

    My point regarding Westmeath was that they were arbitrarily denied promotion in league and fked out of Leinster when they took in Antrim! no wonder they were annoyed! I don't think they would ask for anything more than a fair go.


    (That was reply to Gilberto. Quote malfunction!)

    Imagine a Limerick vs Cork Munster Final and Dublin vs Wexford Leinster Final

    the qualifers would consist of these teams

    Munster
    Clare
    Tipp
    Waterford
    Laois/Westmeath/CR Champs

    Leinster
    Galway
    Kilkenny
    Offaly
    Laois/Westmeath

    It's not that unlikely. Improbable but stranger things have happened

    We did have Cork, Limerick, Clare and Dublin in the AI semi finals in 2013.

    Hope the two teams can keep up this pace.

    Cracking start


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,396 ✭✭✭letowski


    Tipp could hit a 30+ points total here.

    Agree, very much a shoot out. Will suit Tipp as game goes on

    Bill cooper for cork isn't having a good day so far. A few things not going his way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,812 ✭✭✭thelad95


    Cork not disgracing themselves by any means but I reckon Tipp will kick on with the wind in the second half.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,603 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    Very entertaining match so far. I do think Tipp will be to push on in the 2nd half.

    The constant references to a good exciting match being indicative of the Munster Championship is getting quite tiresome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,156 ✭✭✭✭Realt Dearg Sec


    Yeah the Munster stuff is some ****e talk in fairness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,396 ✭✭✭letowski


    Interesting now.

    Jeez Ger Canning doesn't half love Lehane.

    I'm a neutral.... what a great game of hurling, I wasn't expecting Cork to step up like this!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,396 ✭✭✭letowski


    Well done Cork, an outstanding performance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,603 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00

    Always great to see an underdog win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,363 ✭✭✭C__MC


    Some win for cork, they really deserved it. Classic open hurling that suited cork. Well done

    I've a feeling this year could be similar to 2013, but this time with Galway rising to win the all Ireland at last.
