Hurling 2025

Same for Kildare - let them enjoy the McDonagh Cup win and be done with that....

Yes little respect HQ have for McDonagh Cup finalists.  Saying that Dublin,Kildare wouldn't have won regardless but might have given a better account of themselves if given at least a two week break/prep time.

QF is next week so there is obviously a knock on effect, the game itself should be binned but counties had their chance at congress last year and voted it down

Now that the formalities of the pre qualifiers are over do we expect to see anything other than a Munster double in the proper quarterfinals?

Dubs may put up a bit of a battle but in the end Limerick will have too much for them as they'll need to get over their Munster final defeat and get to the AI semi-final v Kilkenny.

Tipp will go in as favourites in the other game, but Galway mightn't have the same mental block against Tipp as they do seem to have against Kilkenny and just might decide to play a bit of hurling. If they do decide to do that then we might get ourselves a game, probably a high scoring one but for me Tipp will just shade it.

Dublin v Limerick is now on Saturday afternoon as part of a Dublin double header in neutral Croke Park, well, it's neutral for the hurling, but a home venue for the football.

Make of that what you will.

G that was so stupid to do, game over!

[Milltown Row2]

That's the most stupidest move by the Dub! Raising elbow, regardless of connection or the player milking it is a red..

[Blowitupref]

Yellow for me and get on with it.  Dublin hanging in there for the moment 0-10 each 25 minutes played.

I probably (incorrectly) would have given a yellow myself, mainly because he made a complete meal of it.. but definitely a red by the book

[Milltown Row2]

Best goal this year

Edit: and another

[Blowitupref]

Two goals in a minute for 14 man Dublin.  54 minutes played.  Dublin 2-18 Limerick 0-19.

Two minutes left Dublin lead by three points.   4 minutes added.


Some win for 14 man Dublin, were 12/1 to win before the match.  FT Dublin 2-24 Limerick 0-28

[imtommygunn]

This would be a monumental shock

[Wildweasel74]

So much for the Munster Champiobship! Great win for Dublin with 14 men.

[Armagh18]

Madness! Fair play to Dublin.

[imtommygunn]

That is honestly one of the biggest shocks I have ever seen in the hurling.
