It's no exaggeration to say Joey Holden..Fogarty and a few more wouldn't make the panel on any Munster squad. Maybe Waterford..

Sending off was deserved and Tipp never looked back. Played some good stuff in second half. Backs were immense especially Kennedy and Heffernan. Over all a very sweet victory against the mighty cats. Epic decade of a brilliant rivalry ends in parity of 3 final wins apiece. Im over the moon.

Their seemed to be no plan B today which was very worrying. Raining ball after ball in on top of the best half back line in the country was utterly pointless

But in the second half tipp played a more effective game and deservedly won easily enough in the end. Rain didn't help
