    No idea why there is 5 minutes injury time.

    Galway 1-5 Kilkenny 0-6 HT. Kilkenny missed a great goal chance a few minutes before half time.

    Presumably the clock was kept running during the waterbreak

    Bad miss by Kilkenny, I guess.

    Galway could have gotten in for a goal but was incorrectly penalised for a throw ball

    Not a great game and no crowd to create an atmosphere.
    Rolling the ball up onto the stick seems to have a tendency to start the rucks. Hopefully will open up as both push for the win.

    Does Kilkenny not realise you get 3 points for hitting it into the net.

    Galway seem the better team but aren't playing well. Kilkenny have more hunger and determination.
    Awful game and anyone can win it.

    Water break needed for Galway just to calm things down

    They are in danger in of losing this. Haven't played well.
    I'm thinking Kilkenny are more likely to win. Short passing Galway are walking into trouble.

    Galway have thrown this away with their soloing out of defence and getting caught.

    Really fancy Kilkenny for the final to be honest. Galway were fairly toothless against a relatively poor Tipperary side (in my opinion)

    From the below PDF, if Kilkenny can smother Galway inside their 45m line, Galway will really struggle for scores

    ...and as always; I can't ever explain enough how low a percentage play the 'long' puckout is.

    This kinda held up well. Kilkenny really were gritty in their own half.

    Well worth their win.

    I'm not sure what's gone wrong with camogie, but the majority of the finals in recent years have been awful.
    I'm not overly happy with the new possession game in the hurling and the basketball scorelines, but the camogie is the other extreme - so much close quarter hurling.

    Deserved win for the Cats. Great commitment, fitness and fighting spirit. Would have been tough to lose 4 in a row. Also they made a 6yr old girl in my house very happy. It shows the importance of young girls being able to see role models and heroes in their own sport.

    Maybe so but I definitely enjoyed it. A. Doyle's first point & a Galway play around the same time were both top class. Several other examples & I think the pitch was softer than what we saw during the hurling semi's. Some mistakes & missed goal chances but overall a good match. Kilkenny deserved winners. Congrats to both teams.
