Shefflin is so salty

Understandable I suppose. Too close to those lads on the field. RTE shouldn't really have him there.

As stupid a comment as I have ever read.

Seconded

A ****ing massacre

Hawkeye9212 · 18-08-2019 05:34PM

Anyone trying to justify Hogan's tackle or saying that the ref should have let it go need to cop themselves on.

I think you can make a good case that it probably would have had zero effect on the result ie Tipp would have won anyway, but to say it had zero effect on the game is something else. Literally and figuratively.

RicketyCricket · 18-08-2019 05:37PM

Shefflin shouldn't be doing analysis at all. So biased.

BrianBoru00 · 18-08-2019 05:37PM

Will someone take Henry Shefflin out of the studio quickly. Making a complete and utter eejit out of himself

leahyl · 18-08-2019 05:38PM

How could Brendan Maher say it was a harsh red card if he “wasn’t really sure what happened”

Seadin · 18-08-2019 05:38PM

Shefflin cant hide his disappointment.

Mervyn Skidmore · 18-08-2019 05:39PM

I'm trying to understand the mental gymnastics going on in Shefflins head...

Feeling generous. Must be in a good mood for some reason.

Fair enuf comment

This was more of a hammering than Kilkenny vs Waterford in 2008 considering both teams had experience of an AI final.

You’re either deluded or on a wind-up if you think that red didn’t affect the game.

Which is it?

My apologies lads... meant the result of the game....

Prestonites · 18-08-2019 05:42PM

Really took light just before the goal, callinan relatively quiet in the first half, bubbles handling we impressive. Sending off changed the whole trajectory of the game. Soaked to the bone, home to shower then off to coppers to pull meself a elated premier female or a dejected Pussy (Cats reference) .

Well done Tipp

Who was the co-commentator on RTE radio coverage My god but he was dire. Listening to it from abroad but had to turn it off.

It had a massive impact.

corny · 18-08-2019 05:48PM

I was surprised how one dimensional and ineffective Kilkenny were in the second half. I'd be hard convinced Hogan staying on the pitch would have cured that tbh.

Tipp worthy winners and obviously the more talented team. More natural hurlers Henry.;)

threeball · 18-08-2019 05:50PM

Sending off had a big impact but Tipp were already in the driving seat having weathered the early exchanges. There was only going to be one winner today 15 v 15 or 15 v 14. KK could have had 17 in that second half and they'd still have struggled.

I did. Can't be dealing with Marty.

Would’ve loved to see what would’ve happened without the red card.
Delighted to win that

kala85 · 18-08-2019 05:56PM

Sending off ruined the game. It allowed tipp the time to deliver quality ball to their forward line.

Adrian mullen very poor. Didn't look well at all.

Ah I’m sure you are, only a bit of banter ;-)

Lefty Bicek · 18-08-2019 06:00PM

I don't think it's very fruitful to make a deal out of the red card.

It possibly had a lot more impact on the enjoyment of the game by neutrals than it did on the eventual result.

Even if you were take another hypothetical - ie that CB should have been off already himself after 2+ possible yellow card incidents - it's very likely on the evidence of the semi-final, that Tipp could have still pulled off the win today.

Better team won.

I would prefer for us to draw a line under today ASAP and look forward.

Hawkeye9212 · 18-08-2019 06:01PM

Opinion of the panel is that both Provincial championships will be competitive next year.

big_drive · 18-08-2019 06:03PM

I think Wexford missed a huge opportunity looking back at this championship
