What a weekend in store.

Unusual enough some amount of tickets floating about numerous clubs here not even looked for a second allocation and some even selling to non members etc.

Can’t wait for Sunday.

Kilkenny wouldn't bring a big crowd for this. And with hotel prices and the airline crisis you won't get big numbers from abroad. Limerick will bring more but even they wouldn't be as eager after all the recent success.

I think the price of tickets with price of fuel and hotels and indeed time of year too played massive impact on it.

Hotels really are crazy, luckily booked two last December.

Going for third senior all Ireland in 19 odd months - some days.

Looking forward to the final tomorrow, game could go anyway tbh. Limerick could hammer Kilkenny but Kilkenny could easily catch Limerick on the hop like in 2019. Kilkenny by 2 in a classic, Limerick will be a monster after this beating 

Liam Cahill gave us some great days in Waterford the last 3 years with the whole county getting a great lift over the lockdowns. Pity how it all ended but that's life and sport for ya. Tipperary will be savage under him. 

While here in Waterford we have no idea where to go from here. That great underage talent of 2013-2016 is ageing and we have been pretty weak underage the last few years. Not many big names will be interested in taking the job, Davy will go to Dublin, Derek McGrath meh tbh will need a forget about the past and evolve . Maybe someone from Kilkenny will want to manage us to improve there CV. Interesting times ahead

Flicked on the hurling for a minute.  The panel going on about the conditions and the ''searing heat'' so was curious thinking it must be up near 30c in Dublin but no its 23c FFSLOL

Feels a lot hotter than 23 to be fair.

I'm sitting at home sweltering!
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

23 according to this which is fairly accurate but I just looked up other apps and it says 28c

Some of the shooting has been outrageous in the first half. Kilkenny doing well to be still in this with those numbers up. The final 10 minutes will make the difference for Limerick I think

Enjoyable final and glad Limerick won. Fair play to them.

The amount of pyro thrown around Hill 16 by Limerick fans was bad. No need for it. Even by the end Both sets of fans where throwing stuff at each other. Obviously very small minority. Good game. Fair play to Limerick.

A great final between two top class teams. A titanic battle. Limerick deservedly up there with the great teams of hurling. 
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Same thing happened constantly between Galway and Limerick fans in the semi. How do they get that amount in when everyone's searched at the hill entrance. 

Delighted for Limerick though. Great to see a county outside of the big 3 do a 3 in a row. Hard to believe it's been 6 years since KK last won I think. Sweet revenge for Limerick for that 2007 final.

Really great to watch the match live. 
The speed of the play. The scoring was excellent with only a few bad misses for each team.
Limerick always seemed to have the upper hand.

I know it's a sign of the times and where all transactions are going but the day of keeping tickets from games is over. Previous All Ireland tickets are kept as mementos but not much point keeping an A4 printout. You'd think with the final they would keep the tradition.

Totally agree there, no replacement for having physical tickets and matchday programs, especially for the big days. A friend of mine screenshots the e-tickets and then prints them off as small photos in pharmacies etc. Good work around I think but no still not the same.
