    And we will never know. Just like limerick were denied a 65 in semi final..would they have missed it? Would they have won after extra time? Would they then have beaten Tipp? All that matters now is for 2019 Tipp are champions and will never change.

    The highlight of the game is the sending off sadly.

    The difference is Richie got up and went off to get fixed up instead of rolling around like he was shot

    With all due respect ,the whack on the chin was far greater than the swipe on the nose!!!

    At the time of the sending off the scores were either level or a point either way so we have no way of knowing how the game would have played out with 15 surely?

    If we accept that Hogan sending off was merited the feeling in KK is that Barrett made a meal of it. The history books will record Tipp won but lets not accept play acting coming into the game. Hurling is one of the greatest field sports around lets not spoil it by gamesmanship.

    Padraig Maher the same against Laois too. Unfortunately its coming into the game to exaggerate injuries.

    The losing side will always point to mitigating circumstances. In 2009 Tipp had a player sent off. In 2010 Henry went off injured. In 2019 Hogan sent off. Losing hurts.

    Maybe for you. Tipp won semi final after sending off. Plenty teams have won with 14 men. Tipp had better more natural hurlers so hurling won in my view.

    Losing to the better team never hurts, like today Tipp put some fantastic scores up either over the bar or goals and were the best team on the day BUT if Richie had to get a yellow like some of the backs should of then who knows what the result would of been

    Nice to see a bit of recognition for lower tier teams. Sligo play some nice hurling and seem to be putting a lot into developing the sport. Two promotions on the bounce so it has paid off for them. The crowds might not be there but it doesn't take away from the effort put in by those players.

    Fact of the matter is,is that Hogan arrived in fast and caught Barrett on the chin with his elbow,simples!!!

    In a sense us getting to the final was a fine achievement. Nobody expected that. We have something to build on. The sending off is a legitimate talking point. The outcome is as it is but if we can learn from this we can emerge the wiser for it!

    Only cause some (Kilkenny people) are trying to say he shouldn’t have been sent off or blame Barrett. Every expert on the Sunday game bar again the Kilkenny ones have said the ref had no option but give a red. Shefflin and Tyrell obviously played with Hogan and their partiality went out the window.

    Seeing an ad for the Rose of Tralee after the Hurling Championship has finished still feels weird to me.

    And another fact is that Barrett caught Richie straight on in the face with his hurly enough to draw blood , or was that an accident?

    Look we all have our allegiances. We, in KK, feel the sending off spoiled the occasion and influenced the outcome of the game given how early it occured. Tipp cream their pants when they beat KK it's the nature of local rivlary. It's the highlight of their year. Let's see this Tipp side do what they haven't done since 64/65 and put two titles back to back.

    Hogan is the blame for that.

    Hogan is the blame for that.

    I'd say Barrett will have some Hollywood agents coming his way :D

    The connection with the hurl on Hogan’s faceguard ,was a swipe but cannot excuse Hogan going in full tilt and connecting with elbow,watch the replays!!!

    Nothing wrong with allegiances as everyone has their county. It was a correct sending off and to argue otherwise based on spurious arguments is silly. Limerick in my view are the best team in the country but didn’t perform as happens just like Tipp didn’t against them in Munster final.

    I'm a Tipp fan and feel it spoiled the occasion as well but Hogan struck a player across the face and that's a red card offence.

    I wouldn't worry about winning back to back titles, time to celebrate this one.
