THE HURLING POD: 'Your gut is telling you Clare and mine is telling me Cork' | All-Ireland final

As Cork and Clare prepare to contest this Sunday's All-Ireland Senior Hurling final, former winners James Skehill and Paul Murphy join Will O'Callaghan to try and predict where the game will be won and lost.
Naturally, the lads can't agree on a winner, where Clare should play Tony Kelly, or who Cork should use to make him...
Tickets are still available for Friday's live roadshow at the Bord Gais Energy Theatre, see offtheball.com/events for full details.

There is one good game in Clare there the second best team to Limerick for the last couple of years

[@shanepower2423]

Also question for members pod Will, what do the 3 of ye think of Johnny Murphy being appointed as referee? Not sure it's the right call especially being from Limerick and he seems to be one of the more stricter refs blowing many more frees than others. Surely someone like Liam Gordon or even Paud O'Dwyer from Carlow would be a proper neutral ref and surely would make more sense with them being Leinster refs

[@jamesoconnell8417]

Think it’s a terrible decision, we want the final to be a demonstration of the game of hurling and we are putting this fella that will be acting more like a soccer referee stopping the game.. the referee from the semi final limerick and cork was brilliant in my opinion, yes there was some frees that should have went both ways but it was a brilliant exciting game.

[@gerardpickeringjr2624]

No good, he sent Rory O'Connor off on Qfinal. That was a terrible decision really bad, worst this year... so far...

CORK SUPPORTERS : Your county needs YOU Are the CORK supporters really prepared to get behind THEIR talented team from START to FINISH and give the PLAYERS that mental edge?

This may rattle cork and Clare people but managed to get hands on 2 tickets despite being from Waterford, someone has to bring the déise to croke park for a change😅

[@shaneoconnor5656]

How much would you sell them for? ;)

[@SmcdMcd-d2k]

I don’t think so..there was more tickets available to outside Clare and cork. But trying to boast about it is a bit pathetic

The most biased podcast they’ve had all year… spent 2 thirds of the podcast talking about how brilliant Clare players were.. talked about how Darragh fitz was gonna be marked out of the game.

[@jamesheff1960]

Delusional much?

[@daveruby7415]

That's absolutely fine

[@jamesoconnell8417]

@@Inkyhead literally only the people who don’t watch it or are bandwagon fans say that it’s gonna be a very close game and anyone can win. I would disagree with that actually non cork pundits will say Clare will win which I’ve no problem with. Just think the analysis was very one sided here

[@Inkyhead]

Currently 40 minutes in, exactly two thirds, and they have only just NOW started mentioning the Clare players. You’re off your head. Bloody hell you lot are insufferable

[@markcoote8336]

@@jamesoconnell8417why is it not ok to say it will be a close game? The last 3 championship matches between the teams have finished with a score between them. All in Clare’s favour

[@richiemccarthy922]

Cork forwards are playing as well on sunday gents. How about hayes, harnady, hogie not to mention the super fast barrett, goal machine connolly ? Very blinkered lads 👎👎👎

[@alanfit77]

Skehill name checked each of the Cork forwards and the attributes they bring. I’m a neutral and see no bias.
