Foretaste of some summer treats?
I said on Saturday that finals are different, and that Tipperary would have to stand up to Kilkenny physically – you can certainly say we saw that. In fact, I didn’t expect them to be as physical as they were. Mind you, I did say I couldn’t see them winning – that’s where I was nearly wrong. Nearly, because this was really close.
All last week, the lead-up and the hype had been about one game, and one game only – the rugby match in Croke Park. What will people be talking about this week? If right is right it will again be about one game, and one game only – and I don’t mean what happened between Munster and Leinster.
