Great reaction to be fair, you had a good enough understanding of Hurling to get the way the game is played 👍 And at the end when he took the free from 97m, to comprehend that a soccer pitch is 105m !! Hope you keep watching
Back in the 1991 Leinster Gaelic football championship, Dublin and Meath had to go to a replay three times! Across the four games there was a total attendance of 237,000, and in the end, Meath won the fourth match by a single point.
That Meath V Dublin 4 in a row was in the opening preliminary round of the Leinster Championship... they met Wicklow in the next match (1/4 final) and that went to a replay as well lol.... Meath played 6 matches for the first two rounds lol
I was at game 4 when meath took it. In the corporate area of the hogan stand thanks to my dad. Was 12 years old then. Still remember the heartbreak. Up the dubs.
In 1970 I was working on a project in Dublin & we stayed at a hotel near Croke Park. The weekend of the hurling final came around & after the match some of the players came & drank in the hotel bar. That was a fun night lol.
thank you do you play ozzie rulles it was brought over to asturila by the irish as galic football we played a comperise rules game with the best rules from each countery over in crook park during the 1980s and 90s it was very sucsessful

As a Tipperary man I watched a lot of fantastic All Ireland Finals over the years but this definitely goes down as one of the best I had ever seen. It's an unbelievable game from grass roots upwards. Thanks for sharing your reactions.
It is not unusual for a GAA final match to go to a replay, or even a replay of a replay after a further draw, just to get a result. That has happened! As for the supporters sitting peacefully side by side, it is worth noting that there were two finals games played that day - a minor final followed by this senior final. That means there could have been up to four different counties teams playing, and maybe four sets of supporters sitting side by side in the stands.
Love your reaction, dude. Played it when I was in the Christian Brothers in Dublin in the nineteen sixties. And watched the great Tipperary team of that era play and destroy all comers at Croke Park when just a lad. No words. Simply, no words.
I was at that match, I legitimately cried when the ref called for HawkEye. An old Kilkenny lad wished myself and my Tipperary friends the best of luck. And Bubbles missed it. The atmosphere was beautiful though. Both sets of fans reckoned a draw was fair...
As a teen there was an advert showing a Hurler in silhouette. The caption was .... THIS MAN CAN BREAK HEARTS AT 90 YARDS. I always thought that was the coolest advert for a sport I ever saw.
I'm Irish and I had an English friend who is from Plymouth. He was my neighbour and he absolutely got hooked on both the Hurley and the Gaelic football. He couldn't get enough of it. He was in Croke Park more times than me and I've lived here all my life.
@@RobReacts1 That's impossible. They are like gold dust. Many fans are season ticket holders and they pay a lot of money for that privilege. But there are rules attached. They must attend so many games throughout the season or they will not receive a renewal. And the GAA do release a fixed amount of tickets for the public, but they are snatched up very quickly. The main battle the GAA have is ticket touts that buy up tickets, especially for match finals, and sell them for anything up to 800 euros for them. But new laws and crackdowns have had a good negative impact on these criminals.
The All-Ireland finals are the only games of the year where you could easily sell 100,000 tickets. You either need to be involved in a club or know someone to get one (which you pay €90 for).
Was at the game with my daughter. It was her first time going to an All Ireland final. I'm from Kilkenny originally and it was a real dream getting to bring her. We both left the ground shaking after all the high drama. She asked me were all finals this good and I told her no, that she probably witnessed one of the great finals of all time. We went to the replay and got to watch Kilkenny beat the lard out of Tipperary. Great reaction vid.
Cheers Rob, pretty much the whole of Ireland watches this on TV as it's very hard to get tickets. People come home from USA and the likes, solely to go to the match, pubs play it and people gather there, it's one day where everybody celebrates, great atmosphere. Cheers again Rob for the upload and love from Ireland
I'm from Thurles, Tipperary, I was at the match wearing Tipperary colours amongst Kilkenny crowd a great game, one of the best Tipp V Cats games..Kilkenny won replay by a goal, 2-17 to 2-14 . Kilkenny won again in 2015 (36th win) then in 2016 Tipperary beat Kilkenny by 3 goals 2-29 to 2-20. Galway won in 2017 (5th win), Limerick won in 2018, Tipperary won again in 2019 (28th win). In 2020 & 2021 Limerick won ( 10th win). I look forward to the Tipperary Club games, the National League, Munster championship and All Ireland championship in 2022! Ar Son na hEireann!
The Henry shefflin fella who came on is the best player in the last 30 years. He has 10 all Ireland’s and is the top scorer in championship history. Look him up if you want to see how good he was. His nickname is the king of hurling
@@Bock75 It's a disgrace that you don't revisit your past comments to ensure their factual integrity. I'm reconsidering the initial up-thumb I provided you some months ago.
Henry Shefflin, who got the big cheer, is one of the greatest hurlers of all time. One of Kilkenny's greatest. They call him 'King Henry' down there, this was towards the tail end of his career as he retired after this season. This years victory (maybe thats a spoiler alert lol) won him his tenth All-Ireland winners medal, which is the record. Not sure if there's any good highlights on youtube, if there is you should watch him.
The replay is to generate extra income for the organisers. This is possibly the only all ireland final ever to have 1 minute injury time. Most games have 3/4 mins
Think you may be forgetting... but up to 2010, if the English FA Cup final ended in a draw, it went to a replay, with the last final to go to a replay being in 1993. The GAA are very seeped in tradition, and this rule will probably never be changed. As an association that filters right down to the community and parish level, the GAA invest a lot of money it earns back into the grassroots level, and one of it's biggest incomes come from the All-Ireland Final. 82,000 tickets nets about €7 million for the association, and I think they secretly hope that every final will end in a draw, so they can sell another 82,000 tickets 2 weeks later! Obviously, if the replay ends in a draw, extra time & penalties decide the outcome
As an Irishman, let me say mate that your analysis of hurling, which you are new to, is very very good. Well done mate 👍 You should keep watching it. Hurling is getting better each year
Have only just found this video. Excellent, I remember that match so well. If you can you should watch the 2013 final between Clare & Cork - also drawn first time & went to a replay that ended up being just as thrilling as the drawn game!
If it ends in a draw in the first match it goes to a replay but if the second match ends in a draw it goes to extra time it can go to penalties as well but I've never seen it happen before
Sorry Liam you are wrong their has never been an option for penalties in football or hurling if that was the case explane the the games that went to two three replays for instance Dublin v Meath 4 games and no penaltie shootout it neve happen I did see it mentioned that for the first time ever this summer the GAA announced that if their was draw in the semi finals or finals extra time and penalties would be used but I can guarantee you that will most likely nor stand once the pandemic is over because the GAA get more revenue and us fans even if we hardley have a hope in hell of getting a ticket can see it on TV another 70 minutes of end to end magic no holds barred end to end amazing skills and you only have to look at other countries reaction to these amazing Irish sports they are all discovering what we have known for thousands of years our games especially hurling has non equal anywhere on earth its beyond unique and I say this often for a small country with less than 7 million people to get tens of thousands to attend our games up to over 80000 is incredible the only other sport in Ireland to fill croke park was the rugby Internationals and Heineken Cup games the soccer game played at croke park never filled the stadium except maybe when Brazil played? But now that the AVIA replaced the old Lansdown Road I think 🤔rugby and soccer would not be allowed to play anywhere else because AVIA wouldn't be happy to pay so much just to see them play in another stadium so another championship is over the curse lives on delighted for Tyrone very disappointed for Mayo like most of Ireland I was cheering for Mayo today by the way the last Mayo player from that 1951 cursed team is 95
You guys got hurling on sky now so it’s easily accessible to you . I enjoyed this video you can tell you genuinely appreciated the great sport that is hurling .
Hi Rob, I’m puzzled as to your disbelief that it went to a replay. FA Cup Finals used to go to replays all the time until the early 00s. It’s not uncommon in a sport for that to happen.
Why not go to a replay? If neither team can win in 70 minutes then where's the reason for giving them a few minutes more?? Better to give them another 70 minutes to test their skills against each other. Also it's another chance for 80,000 people to have a great day out. I smiled when you commented on the fans mixing!! It's a small country and both those counties are neighbours so a lot of the opposing fans would be related and it wouldn't be unusual for them to be from the same family.
AFL: We use to have a GF-replay if it was a drawn game. It wasn't until '2016' that the grand final replay was abolished. As for other finals matches, drawn grand finals are now resolved with two five-minute periods of extra time; if the scores are still tied at the end of the extra time period, play will continue until the next score.
Remember up to 20 years ago The FA Cup Final was replayed and The Champions league Final was replayed up to the 90s, the infamous Ricky Villa Spurs win was on a Thursday night replay.
Love the Irish commentary, they're feckin' mad eejits... personal opinion, stuff the golden point or penalty shootout, go round again and make it count as a team.
While it's nice to see an American comment on hurling. Their reactions to everything are so different to us on this side of the pond. It's so refreshing to hear a genuine reaction from our good friends in the UK!! They're not as OTT as the yanks!!
There's only been 8 replays since 1887, so the 3 in a row from 2012-2014 was really strange. Interesting fact, London won the All-Ireland hurling championship in 1901
@@RobReacts1 I think the country folk love it aswell though. It's like a big day out for them, travel up to the 'big shmoke' they pack the 'hang-sangwiches' and that's their year made. God love them.
Hi Robb. it's not many years since AFL had replays for drawn Finals. But because of the physical and mental pressure, it was decided in 2016 to play extra time. Much better !!!
AFL did as well as recently as 2010 - there have been only 3 Grand Final draws in VFL/AFL competition and all were replayed the next week. This was changed about 3 years ago and extra time will be played if there is another one.
I would love to! I just dont know what im looking for in terms of matches to come to etc. If anyone wants to help me out with info etc, I would happily come
That was an absolutely brilliant match !..one of the best ever ...glad you are enjoying hurling ....tradionally there was always replays but recently extra time is used and even penalties 12:02
Best game in the world. And I am a Clare Fan. so I am only celebrating on a very rare occasion. But the 1995 all Ireland for me was the most special event ever....it is there in poor quality on youtube...
AFL 🇦🇺 borrowed this from Ireland. The grand final game in 2010 here in Aus led to a replay and then a change to the rules so it didn't happen again. I can see the similarities between hurling and AFL, but seriously the Irish are tougher, this is the wildest sport.
The reason it goes for a replay is because it will be worth around 8 million to the GAA with ticket sales alone. That's why I always back the draw at 9/1 in paddy powers 😂
Ah Rob, love your love for Hurling it's wonderful. I love a replay. It means we get to do it all again!🤣 As an English man, I can't believe you think penis are fair either 😁 The next time they would add extra time. You should see can you find The Toughest Trade. They take Gaelic footballers and Hurlers and swap them into different sports,see how they get on. The lads are amateur technically, but they are at a similar level to alot of professional players. One scene where a hurler catches the baseball,bare handed and the yanks are mesmerised. That coach said he had the best hand to eye coordination he ever saw. And now that you understand a bit about the game.... For a very big laugh please watch the skit Gift Grub on Sky sports first hurling coverage. It's side splitting stuff.!
The 1993 hurling league final between Cork and Wexford went to a second replay and there have been many more finals being decided after a replay. It's probably better than a penalty shoot out (or similar) it would be cruel to leave a missed penalty decided it... or just slightly more cruel than having them do it again
No, because we'd have people from all over the world trying to play it then, and it wouldn't be the unique game it is. And don't you know if the english got their hands on it they'd try to change it and then they would try to claim it as their own 😂
Goes to a replay so GAA can gouge more money out of us. Tickets for all ireland cost 100euro sitting, and if you coming from Galway it costs a small fortune but well worth it
Apologies Rob, I've just seen this - a year after you uploaded it. A replay of a final? Not unusual, to be honest. It's not so long ago that drawn FA Cup Finals would go to a replay. It's commonplace with GAA games. Being amateur, it's a way for the GAA to make money.
Hi Rob I think this might help you to understand our attitude to replays for starters GAA fans would not be happy with penalties settling a game the 2nd reason you get to see another amazing game the replay if there is another draw but then they play extra time if its still a draw then happy days another reply in the 80s Dublin against Meath in gaelic football the Leinster football championship had to go to 5 games to decide a winner and I think Meath only won by one point over 300000 fans attended those games its a big source if revenue for the GAA they have over 2000 GAA clubs in Irelands 32 counties aboutb750000 members each club has it own grounds then each county has a stadium big enough to hold a championship game the biggest outside of Dublin is semple stadium it use to hold 65000 but even before the pandemic was reduced to about 50000 the GAA is the richest amateur association in the world and nearly forgot all the county players play fir their local club the best players from the clubs I'm all 32vm county's can be picked by the county selectors to play for their county the cannot play for any other county only the one they were born in there ui an old joke in Ireland the FAI the soccer people is a professional organisation run by amateurs The GAA are an amateur association run by professionals 🙂🙂🙂
They changed the rules now - level at full time - they play extra time 10 mins a side - this year 2024 that situation arose - Clare v Cork - Clare won by a point in extra time!
Weird seeing a packed croke park have you never seen an all ireland semi final/ or final or a Leinster final especially if Dublin are playing or even league games when Dublin fill Croker are you an idiot giving the impression that a full croke park is very unusual maybe you were looking at the games last year's when no one was allowed to go to any games at all
I have to say I agree with you that replays in a final doesn't feel right. Especially in an amateur sport. Its the only game of the season where they draw 82,300 people to a single game. There are double headers and gaelic football games that can fill Croke Park but its only the All Ireland Final that can fill Croke Park on its own for a hurling match. So much money for an amateur game.
@@RobReacts1 Its also controversial though the GAA reduce the ticket price for the next day by a half,that doesn't stop them from being accused of deliberately aiming for replays with the ref blowing up early.There has been a few in recent years for football/gaelic and there are always full houses or nearly full houses.Apart from the GAA there are also huge economic boost for dublin ,not too many local business people complain either

@@RobReacts1 I think the country folk love it aswell though. It's like a big day out for them, travel up to the 'big shmoke' they pack the 'hang-sangwiches' and that's their year made. God love them.
@@philbradshaw7650 Not just for the country folk ,they were two recent replays in football,involving dublin 2016 and 2019
London lost 4 Gaelic Football All-Ireland Finals in a row.
1900
1901
1902
1903
Hi Robb. it's not many years since AFL had replays for drawn Finals. But because of the physical and mental pressure, it was decided in 2016 to play extra time. Much better !!!
It’s technically an amateur sport but these guys are the best of the best of the best
All superstars at this level
Great reaction mate ..it truely is the toughest game on earth.👍👍☘️
We are the irish limerick won 4 in a row 2020 2021 2022 2023
AFL did as well as recently as 2010 - there have been only 3 Grand Final draws in VFL/AFL competition and all were replayed the next week. This was changed about 3 years ago and extra time will be played if there is another one.
Yea extra time is better. Playing a replay for the final is weird
@@RobReacts1 Actually, I liked it. The others were in 1977 and 1948 so it happened rarely.
Rob love you videos you got to get over this summer to a munster hurling match its epic
I would love to! I just dont know what im looking for in terms of matches to come to etc. If anyone wants to help me out with info etc, I would happily come
That was an absolutely brilliant match !..one of the best ever ...glad you are enjoying hurling ....tradionally there was always replays but recently extra time is used and even penalties 12:02
It's not a sport, it's a way of life in Ireland. The whole family is involved and kids play as soon as they can walk
I love to see people interacting with GAA but to be honest i'd hate for GAA to spread over the entire world like football or rugby.
Best game in the world. And I am a Clare Fan. so I am only celebrating on a very rare occasion. But the 1995 all Ireland for me was the most special event ever....it is there in poor quality on youtube...
Would love to see your reaction to the 2020 Super League Grand Final highlights. One of the greatest endings to a game I've ever seen
imagine doing that, then going to work in the morning...Respect most high..
AFL 🇦🇺 borrowed this from Ireland. The grand final game in 2010 here in Aus led to a replay and then a change to the rules so it didn't happen again. I can see the similarities between hurling and AFL, but seriously the Irish are tougher, this is the wildest sport.
Hurling..the best game ever.❤❤❤
The beauty of the sport is that to play for a county, you have to been from that county e.g. to play for Kilkenny you need to be from there
The reason it goes for a replay is because it will be worth around 8 million to the GAA with ticket sales alone. That's why I always back the draw at 9/1 in paddy powers 😂
Have you checked out Camogie, basically Ladies hurling. Would love to get your reaction.
The game played in heaven
The groundsman is english . Worked for arsenal . He hates replays . Delay his hollidays
Ah Rob, love your love for Hurling it's wonderful.
I love a replay. It means we get to do it all again!🤣 As an English man, I can't believe you think penis are fair either 😁
The next time they would add extra time.
You should see can you find The Toughest Trade. They take Gaelic footballers and Hurlers and swap them into different sports,see how they get on.
The lads are amateur technically, but they are at a similar level to alot of professional players.
One scene where a hurler catches the baseball,bare handed and the yanks are mesmerised. That coach said he had the best hand to eye coordination he ever saw.
And now that you understand a bit about the game....
For a very big laugh please watch the skit Gift Grub on Sky sports first hurling coverage. It's side splitting stuff.!
I meant PENOS! Not penis! Sorry 😐
A FYI Rob : Hurling final takes place this Sunday. 👌 Kilkenny again , but vs Limerick this time.
Urgh, I'm not around! Damn
Great game. You probably have a local team and never realised. There's amateur leagues all over the world. Get involved. Ní neart go chuir le chéile
There is always a replay when there is a draw! There has to be a winner!!!! It’s Country stuff……there has to be a winner!!!!
I suspect that the reason the player was treated for cramp that way was so that the management team could pass on instructions.
Up tipp 🦖
The 1993 hurling league final between Cork and Wexford went to a second replay and there have been many more finals being decided after a replay.
It's probably better than a penalty shoot out (or similar) it would be cruel to leave a missed penalty decided it... or just slightly more cruel than having them do it again
Best game in the world
Hurling go to a replay if it’s a tie
That was the 3rd year in a row the final was replayed
My man 👍👍👍👍
If we didnt have a indigenous GAA sport I always imagine the soccer team we would have the athletcism of these players is amazing.
Didn't they find out that Hawk eye got that call wrong? Or did I just dream that in my Tipperary PJ's.
I am an Irish person love this sport and I think it should be apart of the Olympics
No, because we'd have people from all over the world trying to play it then, and it wouldn't be the unique game it is. And don't you know if the english got their hands on it they'd try to change it and then they would try to claim it as their own 😂
I am a hurling goalkeeper and it is scary but you have to do it for the team
You must have balls of steel!
That's changed now It goes to extra time now
FA cup finals used to go to replays
This isn't about soccer 😮
An amateur organization needs replays to fill the coffers - understandable.
replays arent that weird. The FA cup final used to go to a replay. chelsea V leeds in 1970. spurs mancity and spurs v QPR to name a few
Checkout the story of DJ Carey. One of the best players ever.
Don't, you'll be sorely disappointed in the ending 😂
Look at how many people were there, the replay will have brought another 82000, they are worth a fortune to the GAA
Goes to a replay so GAA can gouge more money out of us. Tickets for all ireland cost 100euro sitting, and if you coming from Galway it costs a small fortune but well worth it
FA cup final use to go to a replay
Apologies Rob, I've just seen this - a year after you uploaded it.
A replay of a final? Not unusual, to be honest. It's not so long ago that drawn FA Cup Finals would go to a replay.
It's commonplace with GAA games. Being amateur, it's a way for the GAA to make money.
Big game replays are common with GAA. Gets the millions in
Hi Rob I think this might help you to understand our attitude to replays for starters GAA fans would not be happy with penalties settling a game the 2nd reason you get to see another amazing game the replay if there is another draw but then they play extra time if its still a draw then happy days another reply in the 80s Dublin against Meath in gaelic football the Leinster football championship had to go to 5 games to decide a winner and I think Meath only won by one point over 300000 fans attended those games its a big source if revenue for the GAA they have over 2000 GAA clubs in Irelands 32 counties aboutb750000 members each club has it own grounds then each county has a stadium big enough to hold a championship game the biggest outside of Dublin is semple stadium it use to hold 65000 but even before the pandemic was reduced to about 50000 the GAA is the richest amateur association in the world and nearly forgot all the county players play fir their local club the best players from the clubs I'm all 32vm county's can be picked by the county selectors to play for their county the cannot play for any other county only the one they were born in there ui an old joke in Ireland the FAI the soccer people is a professional organisation run by amateurs The GAA are an amateur association run by professionals 🙂🙂🙂
This might be interesting to read if you used commas and full stops.
Ohh how I love my game.
I mean if you want to watch gaa live sky have the rights to some of the games
You could probably catch some of the games on RTE player as well, not sure if the matches on RTE are blocked outside of Ireland.
They changed the rules now - level at full time - they play extra time 10 mins a side - this year 2024 that situation arose - Clare v Cork - Clare won by a point in extra time!
GAA always goes to replay,
Kilkenny and Tipperary are neighbours and some even related. The pub that night would have been the best night out all year. The replay just as crazy.
Replay = money maker!
the gaa love a replay for the ticket money
It's just the way it's done 🍻🇮🇪weird seeing a packed croke park
Weird seeing a packed croke park have you never seen an all ireland semi final/ or final or a Leinster final especially if Dublin are playing or even league games when Dublin fill Croker are you an idiot giving the impression that a full croke park is very unusual maybe you were looking at the games last year's when no one was allowed to go to any games at all
@@gerryscallan8992 thanks Jerry for saying that.
I have to say I agree with you that replays in a final doesn't feel right.
Especially in an amateur sport. Its the only game of the season where they draw 82,300 people to a single game. There are double headers and gaelic football games that can fill Croke Park but its only the All Ireland Final that can fill Croke Park on its own for a hurling match.
So much money for an amateur game.
I suppose a replay brings in more money but it doesnt seem in the spirit of a final
That's the worst outcome for a final - nobody wants to play a grudge match like that all over again
Extra time for amateur players is too much. Also more money from a replay
A goal can change a game 3 points
2012 all ireland went to a replay 2013 went to a replay and this went to a replay aswell .
That's insane and a weird way to end a final
@@RobReacts1 Its also controversial though the GAA reduce the ticket price for the next day by a half,that doesn't stop them from being accused of deliberately aiming for replays with the ref blowing up early.There has been a few in recent years for football/gaelic and there are always full houses or nearly full houses.Apart from the GAA there are also huge economic boost for dublin ,not too many local business people complain either
It's called the ground... Not the floor. Is that an English thing?
I cant remember... What time did I say that for reference?
@@RobReacts11:05 almost immediately 😂.
Unlike the Americans you seem to get it more, maybe a bit of a generalization but in general :D
Well im doing my best to look at sports more indepth that other reactors who just go for the 'big hits' videos
@@RobReacts1 That's right, you've shown a real interest & appreciation of the game, it's not just 5 minutes of you suffering a foreign sport for views, I'm sure your vids will be appreciated by the Irish diaspora in the form of views eventually :)
