2016 All Ireland final predictions

[Minder]

f**k me, Up For The Match is even f**king worse than I remember. Some awful f**king doses on it.

It's Ireland's shame

Talk of Eoin Murphy being out today, could be a big loss as he's a great sweeper and helps his defence out immensely

Commentary in Irish, sweet!

No Ger Canning!

Prendergast is killing Kilkenny here. Very nervous and jumpy leading to giving away an awful lot of ball.

[yellowcard]

Officials giving Kilkenny a helping hand. Walsh shot that was definitely wide and a free for Reid in the corner for nothing.

I thought the Walsh one was a score. Reid free was an advantage - Duignan called it that the ref had had his hand up.

Surely he lost the advantage by overcarrrying the ball?

Completly wrong.Hawkeye would have alerted the ref if it was wide and Reids hand was being pulled back so was a free.

[GaillimhIarthair]

Free to Reid was a good call.

Tipp should be 5 or 6 pts up, some poor shooting especially early on.

Would expect KK to seriously up their intensity after HT, prob need to make a change at FB too, Holden is getting cleaned by Callinan.

[Zulu]

Definite free for Reid but have no idea if Walsh's score was over. Good game though I thought it just tipped along until the last 5 minutes when the intensity went up quite a bit. Think Kilkenny have a lot to do to win from here. A Tipp goal could end it.

Definetly wide ? Looked close but I am sure Hawkeye had a look at it

[johnneycool]

Not entirely sure its the great game the analysts are saying, too many basic errors for that.

[gallsman]

12 points from play for Tipp, 6 from Kilkenny. Blanchfield, Hogan, Walsh, Kelly, Fennelly and TJ from play aren't in the game at all. Walsh and Kelly started well but have largely disappeared. Difference this year compared to others is KK don't have much on the bench. I wouldn't like to be throwing John Power on and depending on him to turn an All Ireland.

Yup, it's exciting because it's close but it's been quite sloppy. Some lovely scores but most without any pressure. Hopefully the intensity rising just before half time and the closeness will give us a good second half.

Intinsity!!!!!
