Sad to hear about bomber Mahers injury...the dreaded achils. Terrible dose for any player. A great Solider for Tipperary hurling, a real work horse with a tremendous battling attitude who never gives up! Hope your recovery goes well and we get to see you in action again. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2212 - 22/05/2021 13:06:40 2344150 Link

Good win Tipp. We'll get ye next time. Galway Abu. Trump2020 (Galway) - Posts: 2129 - 22/05/2021 15:08:09 2344172 Link
Tipp looked good today. Good displays from most of the tried and trusted. The younger lads looked up for it too. Sheedy has a lot more options now. Tipp should go for this League now as none of the players on view today have league medals TippRed (Tipperary) - Posts: 42 - 22/05/2021 15:15:01 2344176 Link
tipp looked good if they had their shooting boots on could have won by 8 to 10 points some very poor wides. munsterchamps (Limerick) - Posts: 1100 - 22/05/2021 15:22:02 2344179 Link
Decent enough game. Radars awry in both camps. Come championship, I'd say 90% of those misses will go over. Great class shown by Noel McGrath, and Conor Whelan. In very different ways, but nonetheless thoroughly enjoyable. I find it hard to watch the games without the crowd and the atmosphere that the crowd brings. But those snatches of class make it worthwhile. foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 1926 - 22/05/2021 15:39:21 2344183 Link
I thought it was a poor game. Almost fell asleep a couple of times watching it. Galway closer to winning the game than I expected. I couldn't understand why we were warm favourites to win it...it made no sense at all. Tipp would have targeted this game especially since we were the only non-Munster team with All Ireland ambitions in their group. Perhaps might be an element of shadow boxing in some of the other games with the championship so near. PoolSturgeon (Galway) - Posts: 1904 - 22/05/2021 16:13:52 2344185 Link
Confirmed on radio 1 Wexford match off tomorrow due to covid problem..rumors dying round about names being given to hse as close contacts..Clare down 2 players due to this..I'm hoping this isn't true.. CTGAA10 (Limerick) - Posts: 2225 - 22/05/2021 16:31:01 2344188 Link
Replying To Viking66: "Ye should've played your 1st team......." Atleast we played our match! The poor Clare lads are down some players because of the yellow bellies. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2212 - 22/05/2021 17:45:03 2344218 Link
Replying To Viking66: "Hope you are right about the game in Nowlan Park Mick!" Don't bet on it. MicktheMiller (Offaly) - Posts: 421 - 22/05/2021 17:58:54 2344227 Link
Replying To katser: "Atleast we played our match! The poor Clare lads are down some players because of the yellow bellies." Hopefully it can be refixed for next weekend. There ll probably be more senior intercounty hurlers with it before the end of the season. None of them can live in a bubble. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 12041 - 22/05/2021 21:06:28 2344304 Link

Replying To Viking66: "Hopefully it can be refixed for next weekend. There ll probably be more senior intercounty hurlers with it before the end of the season. None of them can live in a bubble." The Wexford county board said: "Following receipt of these results at lunchtime today and further consultation with public health officials, it was agreed that there was a possibility of transmission with the squad and players will restrict movements until further testing next week" This would mean no training for the players this week, which would be a big disadvantage if they play Kilkenny next weekend.

Replying To Bon: "Some of the wides were absolutely brutal, and the amount of them. Poor stuff." I think some of ye lads are expecting too much given that there's been such a long lay-off. Row back a bit on the hyperbole. Maroonatic (Galway) - Posts: 1060 - 23/05/2021 09:33:49 2344397 Link

Not really. Players could isolate at home and travel individually to the pitch. It would mean no going within 2 metres of eachother. So no practice matches. But basic ball skills like shooting over both shoulders, stickpassing 20-30 yards, etc and fitness drills shouldn't be a problem. The main thing we need to practice is free taking which the lads could do by themselves!!!! Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 12041 - 23/05/2021 11:56:05 2344441 Link
