Fair play to Cork. Teams have fallen to pieces in extra time after conceding a last minute goal like  that

Great day out in Croker yesterday. Nervy day. For those going in the next few weeks, pubs are very tough to get into, bag of cans is the way to go. No alcohol served within CP either.

Trains also confiscating cans at Heuston. No bother with cans if getting on in Cork LOL

Managed to get into The Living Room off O'Connell Street, nice set up out the back.

One thing I did notice and not a positive experience, the casual drug use by young Cork fans was off the wall. Every time me or anyone I was with went into the toilet, we saw countless amounts of clowns snorting god knows what up their noses and not even trying to hide it.  Off their heads then for the day, disgracing themselves and Giving Cork folk a bad name Angry

A great game though. Should have been done in normal time. Even if Tim O'Mahony kicked that ball in added time the ref would have blown up. no excuse for not lashing it. Couldn't believe Hoggy missed that 65 at the end too. Would have put the house on him.

Niall O'Leary, Rob Downey, O'Mahony despite the error at the end, Kingston, Jack O'Connor all outstanding. O'Connor in particular had a seriously impressive game. The lads an absolute bullet.

Yeah the backs were very impressive in the last 20mns of normal time, caught absolutely everything going in. Hoggy had a fairly poor game by his standards, good to know he's got lots of room to improve in the final. O'Connor is unplayable when he has the ball, and I love the impact Kingston and Cadogan made, they're great players to spring from the bench when he game opens up.

We (KK) were the masters of our own downfall yet again. Too many missed chances in the first half - 4/5 terrible wides, and couple of goal chances not taken. Should of meant we went in at HT minimum 5/6 pts up vs the single score we were. 
2nd half was mostly Cork, but again we fueled that fire with continuous hit and hope long ball puck outs during a 10 spell after the water break. Tactically, how someone on the sideline or pitch didnt pull the handbrake and insist we mix it up with a short ball or two bemuses me. Definition of stupidity. 
Agree with the water break too - total waste of time and energy / atmosphere killer.

Cork weathered the early cat onslaught well enough. Game was really getting going and then the water break interrupted it. That needs to go next year.

Limerick fully deserving of there win Saturday night. Sadly it never got going for Waterford and the 4 weeks in a row really caught up on us. 

I really thought Cork f**ked up once again when Kilkenny levelled it but they remained calm and completed the job in Extra time

Cork will have learnt a lot from Julys Munster semi final defeat to Limerick and will have no fear. Limerick could blow them away once again 

Yeah was a bit of a nightmare trying to find somewhere Saturday for a few pre match pints esp with The Croke Park Hotel closed to non residents. Got into Patrick McGraths in Drumcondra and the place was very busy. The delay because of the Bales of Hay worked out handy in that regard and had time for another pint

The Metro was very unwelcoming. O'Reilly's next door was good.

Few of us met up by Brendan Behan statue at the canal, across from Red Parrot. Grand there bag of cans with off licence next door although there were a few undesirables too. One laid his can down to light a cigarette and a seagull came and took the can 😂 then the other load his down to help and another seagull knocked his. Some Waterford lads felt sorry and gave him a bag must have been 4/5 cans in it - made his year I’d say 😂

Seagulls drinking cans. They'll be smoking crack next. 
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Best bet is to luck to Mayo and see if you can do a swap.

I saw the breakdown of Limerick tickets last night and it’s grim.
