10/1! I was wondering, when was the last time Kilkenny were double figures to win a Hurling AI. I'd say at least twenty years, probably more. Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2420 - 20/06/2017 18:50:44 2002715 Link 0 |
Well, no offence to Kilkenny people, but obviously I'd rather you didn't win it! That said, has to be worth a tenner (and to be fair, probably more than that) of anyone's money.

You could be right. Kilkenny footballers have already reached the semi-finals. http://www.britain.gaa.ie/football Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2420 - 20/06/2017 20:38:32 2002768 Link 2 |
Its funny the way lads judge teams after loosing a game. Tipp win a few league game had lads on here saying they are unstoppable and it was only April. Now KK are finished but yet if KK draw Tipp or Waterford and win that they will be back in to second favourites for the all Ireland at about 3 or 4/1. Look back at history KK are never finished. therealtmo (Tipperary) - Posts: 1292 - 20/06/2017 20:45:20 2002777 Link 0 |
See what you did there! That'd be like me boasting Gillingham had won the cup if we managed to lift the Autoglass Shield (or whatever they're calling it these days)!

You were doing well until you ruled yourselves out there :)

Good value at 10/1, I'll have some of that. Condorman (Dublin) - Posts: 983 - 20/06/2017 21:10:13 2002803 Link 0 |
Kilkenny can draw either: Tipp/Waterford/Limerick or winners of Carlow/Laois. The Real 1944 (Carlow) - Posts: 1114 - 20/06/2017 21:32:55 2002819 Link 0 |
Fennelly looks crocked. Walsh and Aylward can't be anywhere near full throttle if the Wexford game is anything to go on and word has it that Richie Hogan's back has flared up again. Cody doesn't seem to trust the younger lads and in fairness to him you usually have to do your time and only breakthrough at 22 or 23.

Tipp don't do back to back. Our race is ran.

Don't know if it's good value or a death trap. The woman's family are all Kilkenny.Her grandfather used to put on a few thousand every year on Kilkenny regardless of the odds. Decent profit over ten years. .. . Highly doubt he will have much on this year. Put 10 euro on Wexford myself when they were 25/1 and 50 euro for Galway to win the league and championship before the league final at 16/1. Wexford was a free bet. No complaints as of yet.

Nah don't buy it. I know you have to go back a bit but youse have done it before (as have Wexford). Where there's life, there's hope!

10/1 is a good price as the all ireland is a 3 horse race between themselves Galway and Tipp. If Tipp and Kilkenny avoid each other in the qualifiers and make it to the quarter finals one of the 2 will win the all ireland. mike03 (Limerick) - Posts: 2000 - 20/06/2017 22:55:28 2002856 Link 0 |
Would have to also include Cork now.

I can't see Kilkenny winning the All Ireland this year. Wexford exposed a few problems, mainly that the talent pool is not as deep as in former years. Richie Hogan did not play well in that game, TJ Reid got 2-7 from placed balls. Take that away and the return from the other forwards is 1-4. thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1706 - 20/06/2017 23:46:11 2002876 Link 0 |
Can't see KK being in the final stages this year. In a one off game they have the capability of beating anyone if their key players click. But from where they are at the moment they could potentially have to win 3 big knock-out games just to get to the semi-final. Don't think they have the all round starting Team or squad at the moment. Too many outstanding players have left the camp in the last few seasons and only some of the replacements so far are nailing down a place. You could see in the Wexford game that Cody doesn't trust a lot of the younger guys and still went to the likes of Joyce and an unfit Padraig Walsh and is praying on Fennelly regaining fitness.
