Seafoid, don't worry it's only a Leinster title and will always mean more to Kilkenny than Galway!
They haven't won the all Ireland since 2015, the poor creaturs.
They are a step closer to rectifying that after today.

Felt for Conor Walsh being dragged in front of the cameras for to receive a MOTM award that will probably end up being left in the dressing room.
They are still missing something. TJ is 35.
If they were the real deal they would have won by at least 8 points.

24,483 low for today's Leinster final or the expected crowd?

They were expecting mid-20s, so pretty much as expected!

That was a definite free in at the end.
Two.

Jaysus that  was  as clear two   fouls there as you'd ever see. Clare robbed there

What was the ref thinking? Usually they are mad for games to finish level and there was 2 perfect opportunities to have a draw. He obviously wanted a Limerick win.

Time to take Leinster finals out of a 3/4 empty Croke Park

He (referee) was thinking - I should have blown up before this and if Clare Score from the free, I'd have to spend an extra half an hour officiating this madness in the sun!

Which stadium in Leinster, would O'Moore Park be big enough to host 25,000 crowd?

Conor Whelan got man of the match.

The 10th anniversary of his cousin Niall Donohue will happen in October.
They never got to play on the same Galway team.

Indeed, inflating the admission price price for football matches to compensate for loss makers like this.

He looked like a boy who was going to fire it against a wall in the changing rooms.

I just think the manner of that defeat will knock the life out of Galway's year, could have been loookh forward to a 4 week break, instead they will have Tipp in two weeks
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Nowlan holds 27,500
O'Moore Park 23,000
Tullamore I think now has a capacity of 20,000
Salthill used to have a capacity of 33,000
Probably 30k nowadays

If Kilkenny and Galway were to come up with a home and away agreement like a lot of the Munster counties used to have

It might solve it

Milltown Row2

The game had everything at the end and it would have been hard to follow the Munster final but an amazing finish..

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

I hope Clare aren't as gassed as they were last year.

Dublin could give them a game if they aren't tuned in.
