[red&blue]

I tried to warn the PROC.

yep alot of us were very cautious, some other fellas were giddy at the excitement of walloping Tipp in the final

Spot on, one or two might of voiced concerns but the revisionism here is funny

say what?

Myself and my brother are polar opposites. He was very much in the ‘we’ll bate em out the gate camp’.

everyone did not know what was coming. Sure place was full of “how much will we beat tipp by?” sages in the run up to the final

But for the team to be that complacent and over confident is criminal

You have nothing won till you win it

I think most people felt that if Cork played as well as they could they would win, I felt that then and I still think it now. I certainly didn't hear any sensible person talking about an easy win.

What happened on the day is hard to understand or comprehend, in one half of hurling Cork managed to make themselves look much worse than they are and make Tipperary look better than they are . For me that final was all about the Cork collapse.
Tipperary were well prepared and ready, Cork were not.

Some of ye love misery, still yapping about the final. Jesus Christ.

 

[Crusty Ring]

Random question but does anyone know when the 2026 jersey will be released. Asking for a concerned nana looking to sort out the xmas presents.

I think they keep the same jersey for two years so probably not a new red jersey till next year.

Might do a new white kit alright but you’d think would be out by Christmas

Never ending.

Last night's meeting was short and sweet.
Not a shock to hear that Ben won't be indulging anyone - anyone playing poorly or carrying a long-term injury won't be on the panel.

If he gets them to a final, whatever else happens the opposition will not be 'wanting it more'. Fucking hell. Most of the current team was in primary school when we last won, and Tipp wanted it more? JFC.
