    Kilkenny can't even do the simple things right. Cannot understand why they persist with the long balls into the full forward line.

    Hurling deserved a better final than this. Ref ruined it.

    Did Hogan not ruin it when he lifted his elbow?

    The red finished the game as a contest no doubt but tipp forwards are way more classier

    Definitely a red I might add

    Game was ruined after that. It was far from red. The tipp lad tackling the Kilkenny goalie was far worse and what happened to him... nothing

    The highlight of the All-Ireland this year for me has been Laois.

    A Laois-Wexford final would have been some craic.

    Completely ruined the game.

    It was point for point until the sending off.

    TJ Reid won’t be buying Richie Hogan a pint anytime soon

    That’s gotta be it unless Kilkenny can do what they haven’t looked like doing and find the net....

    Imagine cricket having a more exciting final than hurling. You don't have to imagine because it happened.

    Why can’t lads use 2 hands picking the ball up? First touch is atrocious

    Because one hand is holding a hurl(ey)

    This too shall pass.

    Always a red.
    It was an elbow to the head. He gave the referee zero choice.

    Paudie Maher is a colossus at the back. Nothing getting by him today.

    Hogan is the reason it's so one sided. What an idiot

    So strange that we actually haven’t heard Brendan Mahers name mentioned at all. He is just stuck to TJ

    Kilkenny don't seem like they could score goals with 20 men never mind 15.

    Kilkenny taking inspiration from their minor team's performance it would seem.

    This too shall pass.

    Ah not at all, arm outstretched and his arm naturally moved up as the keeper moved through it. Hogan deliberately brought his forearm up to catch the head. Like night and day. The reaction though was pathetic. Sick of hurlers throwing themselves around these days after the slightest knocks.

    At least play it through the hands rather than hitting aimless ball to tipp men time after time

    Player of the match - that goal bound block he had on Walter Walsh was superb

    I know this was a hard match to call before, and small things would make abig difference, but it's still surprising to see how a red card turned it from a balanced match to a stroll. At times it was training match stuff this half.

    Limerick favourites for 2020

    Based on what? Tipp Galway Limerick will be three favourites I think. Wouldn’t rate Limerick any higher than that. Lot of hyperbole about them for one All
    Ireland. They got lucky enough against Cork last year and lost to what now looks a relatively ordinary KK team this year.

    In fairness kk got back to level, then tipp went up a gear and the quality of the forwards with the great play for two goals finished it

    True, this Tipp defense deserve a huge amount of credit though, all over any balls coming into the Kilkenny forwards and totally dominating them..

    Some difference between when Tipp went down to 14 men the last day and how they responded compared to Kilkenny today. Very poor tactics from Kilkenny too. They just kept hitting long in hope rather than try pick off a few scores out the field.

    A sending off is always liable to have a big effect on a match.

    Kilkenny carrying too many passengers. Minors and seniors hammered.

    Once they came up against two more skilful teams they were done. Intensity will bring you so far but you can't replicate it every day. It only takes 3 or 4 lads to be off the pace and you're done.
