Replying To endgame: "He might have seen Cody roaring and shouting at Derek McGrath down the sideline during the first half and he might have thought that a manager with 11 All-Ireland titles should show more grace.That might be the source of his delight for Cody as Kilkenny go out of the championship." Them poor two angels, McGrath and his side kick Shanahan, sitting there all quiet. While that nasty beast Cody upsets them. Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2485 - 08/07/2017 22:53:52 2012639 Link
Replying To TheHermit: "Janey Mack, when's the last time the Cats were gone by the first week of July?? Fair play to the Desie, hope they have a long summer!!" The first weekend of June 1996 pre the qualifiers. Beaten by Wexford in the first round. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 08/07/2017 22:55:58 2012642 Link
Replying To Ban: "Its an old Irish thing! Probably too successful and all that! Well done Waterford - super in extra time when many would have thought you'd let you chance slip away again" Well, that and the fact that Cody's kind of an xxxxxx 3Dhurling (Laois) - Posts: 24 - 08/07/2017 22:57:48 2012644 Link
Replying To bulmccabe: "1997 the last time kk haven't been in the 1/4s, some game for the neutral and some atmosphere in semple. Back now in the horse and jockey and looking forward to clare vs cork. Who needs to be in clones for a bore fest tomorrow when the wee ball gives such entertainment. Have to say big thanks to the family for a wonderful 50th birthday present, couldn't ask for more, round of golf at thurles this morning and again tomorrow, wonderful hotel, great games. great weather only downer the long road home tomorrow evening and back to reality on Monday. Yeah great times in july and no fikn orange parades and bonfires, this is culture." Kilkenny were beaten semi finalists in 97. Clare beat them.

Replying To 3Dhurling: "Well, that and the fact that Cody's kind of an xxxxxx" Fact? Listen to the little people who have emerged from their holes to tell the world what a nasty person Cody is. How many years have you waited? Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2485 - 08/07/2017 23:08:11 2012651 Link
Replying To Cockney_Cat: "Them poor two angels, McGrath and his side kick Shanahan, sitting there all quiet. While that nasty beast Cody upsets them." The exchange I'm referencing was certainly iniated by Cody.Shanahan can certainly be a plonker as well on the sideline and onto the field but I'd expect more grace from an 11 time All-Ireland winning Manager who's seen it all before. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2187 - 08/07/2017 23:10:33 2012654 Link
A watershed moment in a crazy topsy turvy GAA year, you have to congratulate Waterford, anyone who has sat among their supporters will understand the crazy infectious madness that possesses Waterford fans. I look forward to the rest of the championship, and you its so crazy this year I think I'd put money on Mayo winning Sam. arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4903 - 08/07/2017 23:32:54 2012663 Link

Initiated by Cody? Were you at the game? Sitting right by the exchange, witnessing it all? Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2485 - 08/07/2017 23:39:34 2012670 Link

Replying To Cockney_Cat: "Let? You obviously know nothing about Kilkenny hurling. PS: Well done the Déise." Obviously about as much as a Kilkenny man knows about football!! Im only from north Kerry after all, sure a well versed hurling man like yourself would know how we break every hurley stick we see around there! Take your beating you've had an amazing generation of players who went on far longer than most teams would but Waterford were the better team tonight, they just had a crisis of confidence towards the end TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 09/07/2017 00:40:25 2012709 Link

Replying To Cockney_Cat: "Fact? Listen to the little people who have emerged from their holes to tell the world what a nasty person Cody is. How many years have you waited?" Unfortunately it's typical Irish begrudgery. But nothing will alter the fact that he has managed a team to 11 all-irelands in 19 seasons. To quote Napoleon ' these facts are granite: the tooth of envy is powerless here'. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 09/07/2017 00:49:24 2012714 Link
Replying To LohansRedHelmet: "Waterford wont win because: a. They dont score enough goals; b. the dont have or trust their inside forward line leading to a above." scored some nice ones today though bulmccabe (Tyrone) - Posts: 361 - 09/07/2017 01:52:43 2012730 Link
Cockney cat.Raise a glass to Waterford and wish them well.Kilkenny won't be away for long.That's for sure.It would be great to see Waterford win the All-Ireland and I have no connection with the county. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2187 - 09/07/2017 01:57:38 2012732 Link
Replying To Fairplayalways: "no need to be posting that you got such gifts for your 50th on this forum...comment on game is enough..no need for all the details of why you were there and the golf etc...recession is right.." couldn't help it, smiling like a chesire cat pardon the pun kk fans, but being from a football county that would burn every hurly if they could it's great to be able to take in so many great games in one weekend. If it weren't for the presents I would only have been at the munster final, guess sometimes they do be listen to my rants in the kitchen. On a side note fair play to kk who battled like demons to get to extra time but maybe the mileage told at the end. Has been some 20yr run for them and cody and we can only admire their achievements. Going off track again what a game from the tipp footballers to oust cavan, going from the reports they really blew cavan away, nice to see a team playing football for a change. bulmccabe (Tyrone) - Posts: 361 - 09/07/2017 02:28:07 2012742 Link

To quote Napoleon ' these facts are granite: the tooth of envy is powerless here'." Someone else quoting Napoleon, I'm in love! Who the hell would ever dare say anything about BC, loved him and McGrath squaring up. He should be prowling the Kilkenny side line for the next half decade yet TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 09/07/2017 03:13:23 2012748 Link
Congrats to Waterford. This could make them. Also one of the best supported counties in Ireland. Let them loose now Derek McGrath with a style more akin to their U21s in 2016 than a system built on fear. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 09/07/2017 03:52:53 2012755 Link
It's a long time since Kilkenny were out of the championship this early but it must be even longer ago since they had so many mishit shots in a single game, it was very strange to see from them and it was often under little pressure. They remain great battlers but in terms of hurling skills this squad of players are unrecognisable from previous outfits. Soma (UK) - Posts: 2630 - 09/07/2017 07:37:29 2012761 Link
Well done to Waterford. They have not beaten Kilkenny since 1959 I believe so they are bound to be happy. Kilkenny have won Leinster minor and under 21 so they will not be going anywhere. I don't see them dominating to the same extent (if at all). bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 09/07/2017 09:51:47 2012806 Link
