Replying To Doylerwex: "With a big performance and a rub of the green we will. Not getting ahead 0f myself or anything, but could you imagine the scramble for tickets to a wexford limerick final. Best sets of fans in the game" Excuse my interruption of this Wexford/Limerick love-in. In my humble opinion, the winners of next weekend's provincial finals will be Kilkenny and Tipperary.

What if the Leinster hurling final is a draw, where will the replay be ? As the following weekend Westlife play in Croker. After last years replay between kilkenny and galway was played in thurles because Buble was in croker the following weekend. A Leinster final at a munster venue, what a joke. Yet when walsh park was deemed unsuitable for waterford home games last year, they nominated nowlan park, but the gaa refused, saying that a munster championship match couldent be played at a leinster venue. bobkat (Kilkenny) - Posts: 17 - 22/06/2019 21:49:58 2198725 Link

Ah it's advantage kilkenny slightly on Croker experience but I believe we are slightly ahead of them in pure hurling at present. Our defence held firm last week and Murphy Morris and roc never got going. All going well we definitely have it in us and I think the time is right for this team. I also disagree on munster to be honest. I'd say limerick are ahead of everyone. Doylerwex (Wexford) - Posts: 2661 - 23/06/2019 10:47:55 2198880 Link

It was the Munster council not HQ that didnt allow Nolan Park. Leinster council were in charge of the Thurles decision Breezy (Limerick) - Posts: 1236 - 23/06/2019 14:20:24 2198963 Link
Wexford vs Kilkenny replay in Thurles would draw a big crowd and I doubt the players would complain. Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 23/06/2019 14:50:42 2198975 Link

Even on a thread about the Leinster final you have to have your 'look at me.. I don't like limerick' moment.. So, are you actually able to be objective? why Tipp 100%? What's your rationale? or do you have one, is there something you can offer other than how needy you are about sharing your weird dislike of Limerick at every available moment... skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1062 - 23/06/2019 18:09:09 2199166 Link
Replying To ballydalane: "This final couldn't be any worse than the football today." That's for sure ballydalane..terrible one side football final, as for the hurling Final...really looking forward to this two very evenly matched teams who will give it everything. Could be one of the best Leinster Finals in awhile. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2195 - 23/06/2019 18:36:31 2199200 Link

They need to start redirecting some of dublin's hurling funds towards the other leinster counties. Given their population, the funding and the number of kids playing hurling now they'll dominate leinster hurling eventually too. So enjoy the leinster championship while we still can.

Replying To munsterchamps: "skillet last august broke kathys heart she will never get over it and always have a gripe with limerick.....we have to try just let what she say's over our heads....." Interestingly she was much the same in her need to share 'I don't rate limerick' craic long before the AI last year. in fairness that could be justified in the sense that we had no success for a few years other than beating Galway in their back yard in the 1b decider... But I'm genuinely curious as to why? shes completely irrational and not able to justify at all her take on Limerick hurling. Maybe just doesn't know anything about the game? I suppose its irrelevant.. Weird but irrelevant. Anyway, more importantly I think Wexford, if they control the emotional side of their game, bring the passion but with more composure could have a huge game against Kilkenny. I think they'll win a cracking Leinster final. Pity I won't be able to see it. Mind will be on other things at 2pm next Sunday. skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1062 - 23/06/2019 19:28:09 2199257 Link

Yes and even in pockets of Meath they love the game of hurling and it would be great to see it developed more. By the way Congratulations to Meath.... that was a great win against Down in the hurling. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2195 - 23/06/2019 20:00:00 2199302 Link

We go to most Wexford games and have with years and the two best games of the year are held one on top of the other 120 miles apart. Allowing for that can anyone just imagine the number of Tipp/Kilkenny households that will be put out on Sunday. Oldtourman (Limerick) - Posts: 4321 - 23/06/2019 21:29:41 2199430 Link

It was obvious from Katsy's early posts last year that this is in fact a Clare poster with identity issues. I don't believe that there is any Galway supporter with that level of bitterness.

Replying To Jack_Goff: "Wexford vs Kilkenny replay in Thurles would draw a big crowd and I doubt the players would complain." Wexford v Kilkenny in Cork if it's a draw. That's the word on the street. Thurles is too near to Kilkenny and its seen as an unfair advantage. Regarding the Munster final. The big factor is Limerick being at home. In a match of that magnitude the support will be a factor. If Tipperary get a good start then they ll be hard to reel in. They can keep sniping scores for the 70. However if Limerick get a good run on Tipperary it ll be very hard for them to come back at Limerick. All set up to be a great game and I think it ll renew the appeal of the Munster Final again bloodyban (Limerick) - Posts: 1710 - 24/06/2019 09:54:34 2199659 Link
