    Remind us again when Tipp crashed out of the competition? If KK are finished having reached an All Ireland QF what does that say about Tipp? And no I’m not from KK.

Anyone who has been to a game that Kk were playing and heard their supporters will know exactly what I’m on about!

    A high challenge is a high challenge; I don’t see how intent or lack can be mitigating. And top calibre players shouldn’t get preferential treatment.

    You got crucified in an argument after making a silly comment, so you got personal & tried the distraction tactic. Clever!

    And there was me thinking Wexford were u21 Leinster hurling champions. And 3 in a row camogie All Ireland champions. But I have an interest in more than one sport, so it’s irrelevant.

    Im surprised you see what i did. Your not the only one that has an interest in other sports but unlike yours mine is healthy. Your view of the Shefflin sending off goes against every pundit on the tv & those of us that love the game no matter who wins. A couple of u21 wins hardly make you qualified to disrepect a great player like Henry Shefflin & when he finishes his hurling career there wont be a whole team in wexford that will ever come near his achievements. If this is Henrys last game its a sad reflection on the referee.

    It’s you’re, and it doesn’t matter who the man is or what he’s won, a tackle around the neck is a yellow card.

    Should the letter of the law apply only to men who haven’t won an all Ireland? How do you need to win until the rules don’t apply to you, two? Three?

    Disrespecting a player because I said it was a yellow card?
    You’re a sensitive soul. No wonder you don’t have the balls to show your face.

    Henry Shefflin is one of the greatest hurlers ever, and I was sorry to see Kilkenny lose. But the best team did win. So, well done Cork. Kilkenny are a top team with a top manager & top players. For you to suggest I’ve said otherwise highlights your inability to comprehensively interpret a sentence.

    But you seem to think it’s ok to disrespect a small county like Wexford who’ve provided some superb hurlers, footballers, camogie players & rugby players over the years. I suspect you had no problem cheering on the Billy Walsh coached boxers in the Olympics last summer.
    I wouldn’t dare insult Kilkenny or Shefflin. And I wouldn’t dare insult Cork, a place I’ve lived in.

    Also, it highlights your inability to interpret a rule. High challenge = yellow. Show me where it says otherwise. Alternatively, pipe down.
    So since you love the game so much, I hope you didn’t get caught in the traffic coming out of Thurles today.

    I agree the first one was either no yellow or very harsh, after that though he should have minded how he tackled.

    He would have been much more useful to KK up the field rather than tackling in the halfback line

    Stephen thats a total generalisation. I think Shefflins sending off was wrong & its not the only bad decision this ref made on both sides. As a Cork man I am proud of the result today but see the need for a big improvement in Cork. Im also of the view that Limericks win is good for hurling so you need to adjust your mindset. Like your opinions on hurling it needs a lot of adjustment.

    ref is poor and showing bias towards Cork but people who say Shefflin sending off was harsh?? a tackle round the neck is dangerous it deserves a yellow and sending off. the first yellow was harsh though. also don’t know how Shane O Neill is still on field after his dig in the first half and his pull on Eoin Larkin for the penelty. Also Anthony Nash best goalkeeper in the country

    The rules are the same at all levels of the game and for all players. The problem is that they’re not applied with a great deal of consistency. Henry deserved to go, good call. O Neil also deserved to go, bad call by the referee. Aside from that, shefflin shouldn’t have been on the field to begin with. Clearly not fit enough to merit starting, and should have been withdrawn by Cody when it was clear that he wasn’t up to the pace of the game. Any other player besides Henry and you can be sure Cody would have been ruthless enough to make that call.

    H.S. is a decent decent but hard hurler. The high tackle was a heat-of-the-moment instinctive act, … He pulled out of it as soon as he realised what he was doing, and there was no malicious intent whatever. The reaction of the offended cork man was unsportsmanlike. For Henry to finish his career in a series of half matches due to injury, then a red card in his last championship match is a travesty. I am gutted for him.
