Was the tipp Dub man who connected with helmet?

Think it was harsh but that season that was brought in to crack down on?

Quote from: NAG1 on July 03, 2024, 01:00:01 PMOnly one of them I can see being a viable option for Davy is Dublin.

He is high profile and exactly what Dublin need at this stage to raise the profile, like him or not he is box office and brings a lot of attention.

Don't think any of the other top tier teams touch him at this point.
Think your right. Galway need to get a homer this time, is enough great hurlers there won an All Ireland and played in finals and at the top level to take it on.
Antrim is like one step forward two back most frustrating county, can't see Davy heading there either.
Daly had great time at Dublin would suit his old team-mate and they dish out good money €€€

Is Daly's effort with Dublin not overstated a bit?
I'm not across his while tenure there but he made them contenders, first Leinster title in 52 years. Also was very hard done by in All Ireland semi-final a harsh sending off swayed the game in Corks favour.

Fair point but this is what I thought.

It was a one off.  If you are going to make a difference/impact, it needs to be over a few years in my opinion.

He took Dublin from 2008 to 2014. Also he led them to a first National Hurling League Div 1 win since 1939 beating Kilkenny in the final in sixty-five years (admitedly I googled that!)

In 2013 that first Leinster title 52 years beat by Cork AI semi-final by 5 points. I was at that and just recall was a harsh sending off though don't fully remember the incident. Cork pulled away then.
Quit following year... thats not bad work in 6 years. Antrim be glad of it!

Bit of a merry go round situation in a few jobs now.

Could be an interesting off season.

Only terrace tickets left. I'd expect they'll be gone soon.

Really poor attendance expected for Clare v Kilkenny.
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Saturday afternoon is a bad time for match.

King Henry and Davy gone.

No surprise about Shefflin.
How bad were Galway that they managed to lose badly to Dublin in the last round of Leinster?
Dublin were no great shakes this year.

Well down on last year 48,360 although that was played Sunday afternoon.  2022 they played on Saturday 39,626 the attendance.

Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Hadn't seen that JC, class.


Milltown Row2

That was brilliant stuff! Only I've something arranged, impossible to get out of I'd have went down.

Both teams can't have off days tomorrow, and if both are flat to the boards then it will serve us up a cracker.

Really difficult to call, no separating them with the bookies either

Each time I make a case for Kilkenny I've a case made for Clare

Can't see Clare winning today. Haven't beaten Kilkenny since 1997. Another Limerick and Kilkenny final on the way.

Milltown Row2

Some saves by both keepers so far
