Waking up today in a hotel in Dublin with a hangover is totally worth it

Replying To Oldtourman:  "Delighted for you Clooney If we pull through tomorrow it will be the 7th time the McCarthy Cup with rest on Lower Shannonside in 12 years."
Thanks Oldtourman but we will be hammered if we play as badly in the Final got very lucky on Saturday Commiserations on Limerick but they died with the boots on 5 All Irelands 3 leagues and 6 Munster Finals in a row over a 7 year period I would die for it if that was Clare.

Hope the final lives up to expectations

You're 100% right. All Ireland final day is an enormous thing and needs to be treated as such. Enjoy the build up, the anticipation, the who plays- who doesn't, how will we curtail cork. Its those things on top of the games I love. Ye have truly earned this shot and best of luck.

Congratulations CLOONEY, well deserved victory. I felt Ye would do it beforehand. It is a remarkable statistic that nine All Irelands in thirty years have come to our relatively small Hurling Counties. JUST SEVEN HAVE GONE to Tipp and Cork in that era.

Bloody Inagh Mona are the biggest let down of a club in Clare

Anyone see Clonlara v Éire Og yesterday on TG4? What a super advertisement for Clare club hurling.

The game was of a very high standard. Young Stritch (just finished his leaving) looks a real player and could well be in the mix for the senior panel next year. EO has big performances over the pitch but we will be concerned with SOD picking up an injury. The team continued on without him and deserved the win. Much better than Clonlara in the second half.

Lrh I thought it was a great game to watch..I agree thought Eire og were definitely the better team in 2nd half..o Donnell got a cracking goal and I hope the injury won't affect him long term..Russell caused havoc and reidy stood up with super scores when needed..clonlara couldn't set jc to influence the game and he was handled very well..stritch looked very good,remember him playing with ard scoil..tots turned the clock back in 2nd half and had a huge influence..can I also compliment the ref on doing an excellent job..

I did not. I'm not much of a gambler but Inagh should be producing better performances than they have with their personnel. They were good this weekend gone though and are back in the hunt

Lrh that was a very good game to watch..very impressed with Russell who caused havoc.stritch is a good hurler,played very well in school with ard scoil..tots did the same by turning the clock back.can I compliment the ref also,handled the game very well..is he a relation of Brendan bugler by any chance??am I right in saying depending on results the next day any of the four teams can still come out of the group?

A very enjoyable game, fair play to Eire Og they seem to be motoring well. The facilities in Tulla look fantastic, the pitch was on great condition. A credit to everyone involved .
