Most likely Dublin V Cork in the hurling semi-final in 2 weeks time.

At least the Dub fans will stay around after the match. the Cork ones are on the road/train shortly after the strains of the final whistle fades away.

That's because the party starts when the travelling Cork fans arrive home, even last year after the most horrendous defeat in the final, once the fans got home, the party started !

Cracker of a Game .To be fair to the Cork Fans no matter when they play in Dublin they Travel be it Football /Hurling /Rugby .They out numbered Tipp today about 5to 2 .Always amazed how Fans mix drink and mix in the Stadium and never a Cross Word or Punch Thrown . Tipp were possessed second half Prpbably the most perfect half of Hurling ever played everything went right for them .
-
Apparently Tipp scored 3-14 in the second half compared to Cork's 2 points :o :o :o

But the second half was astonishingly one-way traffic.
Tipp dominated possession, hitting 1-05 before Cork managed a point and another 2-05 before they got their second, and last score of the game, in the 66th minute.

It was one of those Great Sporting moments .It was Irelands Ali v Norton rope a Dope moments .Cork looked the better side in the First Half Tipp probably should of had a Goal that was dissalowed .Must of Angered them but it looks like they had a plan .Cork probably technically the Better side all the Rain yesterday morning slowed downthe pitch .A game of two halves .We see that so often in Hurling .Teams that come into the final overwhelming Favourites who on the day dont perform .Probably a mental thing you think its in the bag and on the day if it dosent happen for you there are no leaders to step up because so many of you are so good you think you are giving it your all so depend on somebody else to do the donkey work .Tipp to a man upped their Game second half ..Are Cork becoming the Mayo of Hurling .For such brilliant Supporters they Deserve an All Ireland .That Tipp Side wont be back next year to many old boys in It .Cork probably back next year if Limerick dont sort themselves out .

Anyway we had the Party regardless lol
It kicked off Big Time at 1pm, never letting up even after having to swallow the most bitterest of pills again fer the second year in a row.
The weather thankfully was unexpectantly very good to us with just one thunder and hailstone torrential shower fer 10 minutes during half time when everyone was indoors watching the game.
The thristy travelling fans arrived home in their many thousands between 10pm and midnight to really kick it all Off again, It was 4am before the Taxis eventually cleared the city streets.

I wouldn't agree, the first half was scrappy, Tipp were unlucky with the Square ball call and Cork had the luck getting the goal just before half time. Tipp also had a massive amount of wides in the first half and in reality they could easily have been in front at half time. The second half seems to be a Mystery to everyone ??

Both PP and Spoilsports have next years market going;

I see both Cork and Limerick way underpriced, I would have them both at 4/1.
Also Kilkenny overpriced by 2 points.
And Clare (who will be back) by 6 points.
And also Dublin way overpriced by Double.
