Great watch, I’ve no idea what the rules are or even if there are any. Mental.

Cork the Mayo of hurling. Unbelievable bottle job.

Some comeback by Tipp’. Great 2nd half and very pleased for them. They live up to their self title….
‘The home of Hurling’

Haven’t watched a game of hurling in years, that was a great watch and the commentators sounded engrossed in the game which feeds through to the viewers.

I don't think it was a good performance by Tipperary, how many wides did they miss first half? Cork just handed the game to them on a plate. Cork have been a bunch if spineless bottlers ever since that stupid strike 15 years ago. A bit like the Irish football team since Saipan.

Wow, I haven't seen a turnaround like that since 'the five minute final' in 1994 and even that was a quick spell at the end. The second Tipp goal was a thing of beauty.

Tipp played well in the second-half, but were helped by Cork who definitely didn't have the rub of the green. I really don't know what happened and wonder if the "killer" goal before half-time led them to switch off a bit. Maybe it was just not meant to be as....

The Open Championship has been held in Royal Portrush on 3 occasions, 1951, 2019, & 2025. In each of those years, Tipperary have won The All-Ireland Hurling Championship.

Yeah, the commentators are good on BBC and their enthusiasm is infectious. Much prefer their coverage to RTE's.

If you ever get a chance, you should go to a big game at Croke Park. Tickets for the hurling semi-finals are readily available, and it's far more impressive in the flesh.
