All-Ireland camogie final: Rebels take their frustrations out on Tipp

Cork 4-9 Tipperary 1-9

Nobody figured that Tipperary's tyros, bursting at the seams with hurling skills and with a ferocious appetite, would finally put the Premier county on the camogie map.

For the last three years, Cork's players were like the rest of the camogie world, mere witnesses to greatness, as Tipperary first broke their duck at this level, then went on to triple success. Three years during which the frustration, the hunger, welled up, dammed on the double over the last two years, when first they lost a final to Tipperary, then last year, a replayed semi-final.
