Dirty tactics by clare won them no fans today.

Hope they get humiliated in the replay.

Thought both teams played a good hard physical game to be honest. Im struggling to see where they were dirty. They were up against a physical powerhouse

It's always funny to watch the insecurity of hurling fans. Just on this page alone it's better than the Gaelic Football and has more scores than the premiership (of course you will as it's far easier to score). Why not be secure enough in your own skin to just enjoy the game for its own sake and not be constantly looking around for validation?

I think all the posts referencing gaelic football were tongue in cheek. It's those defending Gaelic that need to relax.

Does anyone really want to have that debate after watching the game, can we not just enjoy the entertainment we were given today?

They will beat Galway.

If they had only steadied up in that first period of extra time today they would have done it. Shooting from insane angles.

They putting the football at 3.30 back then as that's down for TV?

No insecurity. Im safe in the knowledge that it is and always will be better than Gaelic football. id be a fan of Gaelic football too but it is in need of a shakeup big time. ideally you'd want both codes at least trying to outdo each other week in and week out.

They will beat Galway.

Can limerick put one over on this relatively average ‘langer’ side like Waterford did at last years semi......what new players have they unearthed since this time last year...? Or did last limerick ‘shoot their load’ for the season in their victory over kk.....?

agree Cork are very average and havent a hope tomorrow. they should not bother turning up. Nice and handy for Limerick tomorrow.

Its been the greatest championship ive ever witnessed in terms of excitement and drama even if we were knocked out early. Its just been humdinger after humdinger and we could see another cracker tomorrow.

The Super 1 plus guests by comparison has been abysmal barring the Monaghan v Kerry drama last week.

In terms of sheer entertainment, it certainly has to be up there among the best and you couldnt say it has lacked for quality at times either. Already well in credit for the summer whatever happens from now I reckon. Pity they didnt get the format quite right, but would love them to admit their error and fix it for next year.

So.....replay in Pairc Ui Chaoimh or is it available?

There's camogie there next Saturday.

I think today proved finally that Galway have been hyped beyond their actual capacity. It can sometimes happen teams that beat Kilkenny as Kilkenny themselves are usually assumed to be better than they are. Galway are highly vulnerable even if they do manage to squeeze past Clare. Cork's All Ireland to lose.

Camogie is on Saturday on RTE actually, so will they shift that off? Imagine they might need to make this game at like 2.30 to finish before they start

Or at least use News Now. They did that for the World Cup when there was a clash in the final group games?
