    As a Tipp man , the beating from ye set us on a much better path to victory today . Ye got a long lay off and a day out V cork or kilkenny whereas we got the easiest of all options . I doubt we would have defeat ye in an all ireland

    It's all equal now. Congrats to Tipperary

    Looking back now is easy but hammering Tipp in the Munster final probably sent them on a better path which ultimately won them the All Ireland
    The Friday night before the munster final tipperary had a savage training session,Sheedy wasn't thinking of a munster title,he had only one thing on his mind,an all-ireland

    Ahh that all makes sense then. Tipperary wouldnt have been beaten by 12 points if they hadn't trained so hard om Friday. Thanks for clarifying. Thank God we didnt get to the final then. We would only have been embarrassed by Tipp at full tilt.

    I can see your sarcasm but I think Tipperary defo held something back in munster final had we got over kk the final would have been so different to munster final, still think we'd have beaten them although would it have been possible to get the players heads right to play a team they beat so convincly I'm not so sure.

    I'm only coming around now from that semi defeat

    Tipp definitely were not at 100% in the Munster final. Some part due to how good we were but some is also due to them pumping long ball all day. It was as if Sheedy was happy for them to fail at that as a learning experience. Bizarre thought I know. Also after their missed that goal chance they gave up. Compare that to going 5 down to wexford with 14 men. Different attitude completely.
    I think we had their beating no matter whatin the Munster final. A Limerick v Tipp all ireland final would have been some day, some buildup, some game. We would have been favourites but it would have been a seriously close game. Tipp usually show up in all ireland finals.
    Hopefully next year. This year we have noone to blame but ourselves.

    how many times do we hear the same rubbish every year , at least be a bit more original about it , something like johnny "the hotpoint " Hayes was sleeping with barrett's missis who used to be maher's girlfriend or something :rolleyes: or sheedy's wife made them dodgy lasagne the night before the game

    when coming up with stories i reckon you must try harder F- minus for effort :D

    Video doesn't look good, Appears to be handed a small white package, Never saw change given in that form before....

    I've edited my original post to remove any liability. Ye lads or mods may do the same in your quoted post?

    Video isn't all that clear, it definitely could be change, tbf, it could be a fair few things. Ultimately you trust the testing or you don't.

    I think the biggest question from all this controversy is this: How is a born and bred Meelick man not playing corner forward for the banner??

    Whatever he was handed it just shows the power of smart phones in this day and age,why can't people go out and enjoy themselves and not have to record everything,Even if it was something innocent like change or a receipt, if I was Peter Casey I would be more annoyed with Shane Dowling for recording it and posting it up in a public forum

    I have a couple of thoughts on this whole sorry saga . . .

    1) I wouldn't blame Shane Dowling at all. He put an entirely innocent video up on social media, which was then cropped and zoomed, to make something entirely innocent look bad. Would be a shame if Shane's natural outgoing nature was affected by this

    2) If you think about it for a second, the whole story is ridiculous. High-profile inter-county hurlers, in a bar surrounded by 30 strangers, with CCTV, with phones everywhere, and people think somebody is just going to hand over a bag of drugs in the middle of all that? FFS

    3) I would think Peter Casey has an open-and-shut case of defamation, if he wants to go down that route. The suggestion, now entirely disproven, that he was in possession of illegal drugs in public, is very serious, and was publicly shared on Twitter and elsewhere (not just in private WhatsApp messages). Sue, Peter, sue!

    Updated videos tell a difference sorry.

    They were coins.

    Videos clearly showing his friend getting drinks at bar, putting them on table and immediately handing him his change.

    People realise that a cocaine test can be passed roughly 3 days after taking the drug. So whether he took it or not the test is pretty irrelevant.

    But anyway I'd be inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt given the video is pretty poor quality and impossible to come to any sort of conclusion on.

    The recording of nights out really boils my piss. Dowling is surely 27/28, would want to grow up a bit.

    Dowling might have seen his chance to get rid of the competition for corner forward
