Mayo should prove me wrong but I just don't know if they peaked too early against Donegal.

I'm normally a rugby man, but I like the hurling. Agree Boss, that was a superb sf. Great commitment and skill from both teams. The Dubs' gk made a right horlicks of the decisive score for Cork.

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
awh buggger. O'Dwyer's sending off just turned things for the Dubs after what had been a superb first half for them. I was surprised that Cork didn't get further ahead to be honest, but they're through. David Treacy and Capt'n Keaney were particularly superb for the Dubs. Potential MOTM nominees there.
Fantastic match all round to watch though and a good advert for hurling. The skill and fitness of the players was just outstanding.
I hope the Dub footballers can do better...COYBIB...

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
Think Horgan did really well rather than Maguire making a bags of it, Horgan's jab was inch perfect. The second yellow was probably deserved but the first was very soft, although Rushe was lucky not to see a straight red so it all evened out.
Such a gutting game to lose, plenty of inches there on show where the game was won, missed free's, goal chances not taken etc. but can't take away from Cork, fair play to them.
Ah well, there's always the football...

My sister works for a national newspaper and once sent a page to the printers with a picture of some Westmeath player with his podger hanging out. We still slag her about it.

Nah, she was the sub-editor at the time. Just glanced at the picture and passed it on. A lesson learned though, always check the shorts!
Didn't see the Gormley incident as I was on my way into Croker at the time. Heard there was a bit of a melee though. Not good for Tyrone, the Mayo forwards are on fire.

Should have been either/or with him and Penrose not both both of them. Shouldn't have got involved anyway.

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
I do! I've a great picture of Eoin Cadogan hurling against Tipperary a couple of seasons ago, and the Tipp player's got a good grip of his shorts and some colourful jocks underneath Eoin is wearing, pulling them sideways and Eoin's wanger is there for all to see (still in his pants mind). I would post it on here but I don't know how to do that now...Mickado wrote: A lesson learned though, always check the shorts!

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
Although this week's hurling semi didn't have the pace of last week's stormer, I really enjoyed today as a neutral. Some brilliant skills on show especially from Colin Ryan. Limerick will be gutted they made seven wides early on...they just never caught up after that.
Clare v Cork should be a cracking game. Can't wait!

Hard luck Tyrone we done well in 2013 League Final and All-Ireland semi Final Mayo should take Sam at this stage but you never no with GAA just hope they don't collapse and give us a good final win lose or draw. I wonder if any of the remaining 1951 team will sleep with one eye open from now until the final.

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
Surely a Dublin Mayo final would be a 50/50 game ?
Tyrone at the wrong end of a few iffy calls but Mayo had more of a scoring threat on the day and deservedly won..........
Will Harte stay on??

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
Think Harye will stay on. He's building a young squad again.
A Dublin Mayo final would be hard to call. A lot depends on I'Connor's fitness I think. Dillon and Freeman are great players but O'Connor is to Mayo what Brogan is to the Dubs.

I thought that. That's why the double entendre was far too obvious haha.
I had a patient tell me the other week "sure aren't all you irish related to the travellers" Speechless!

Well to be fair, there were travellers on the show who consider themselves Irish, but really aren't...even though they had the accent and everything so we could all be related. There was one red headed girl on there who had the worst spray tan job I've ever seen. Red hair and Cupurnol do not mix!

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
Missed the last 20 to get to the airport for a flight that ended up being delayed 2 hours. What a game.
Colm Cooper you are a Gaelic God. Christ his 1st half display was sensational. Best player I've seen.
Well done the Dubs. Too much depth. Although I don't like Connolly.

Boss - that's a shame you missed the last 20 - that was the best bit I reckon! Cooper is indeed an excellent player, although he showed he was also human on Sunday and kicked a few wides.
What's the problem with Connolly?

Strikes me as a bit of a thug. Few rumours I've heard and he's constantly getting involved in handbags unnecessarily. Too good a player for it. Plus he has that sort of face haha
I know I was in bits listening to it on the radio in the car!

I know Rory O'Carroll was accused of eye gouging Gooch, but nothing official was made of it after the powers that be viewed the footage. Still, there was a lot of "thuggish" behaviour from both sides on Sunday. It was just that sort of game. Thankfully it didn't spoil the occasion too much and we saw an overall excellent match. Hope the hurling final is just as exciting.

Wasn't from the match the other day. Have felt it for the past few years and his discipline has let him down at times. Great footballer though. Looking forward to the hurling even if it will be on a poor stream.

Re: GAA Football and Hurling Semi Finals 2013
It's a real shame you can't get to an Irish pub to see it. My local O'Neills is fab for showing the GAA. They had it on every TV in the pub on Sunday - including two massive screens. I had a fab view
You could always invest in a smart box to watch TV via your PC. They cost between £65 and £120 but they're great for getting Wifi on your telly.
