1:00:30 onwards. My father was at this match in the canal end, I’ve never got to the bottom of what happened in Hill 16. It’s the kind of thing you never see at GAA matches
It was unusual alright. Cork did have a gurrier element amongst it's support in the 80's. They were trying to copy some of the Dublin supporters antics (a fan got stabbed on Hill 16 at the 1983 all Ireland football final), but it died out thankfully.
Galway played a third midfielder that day, as they had done to great effect in the semi final. And then they proceeded to hit a world of ball into the loose cork man at corner back, Johnny Crowley. He was man of the match that day😁
Maybe not the greatest hurling final, but definitely the funniest. Brendan Lynskey rolls on the ground in agony after a smack to the head and taken off on a stretcher. Then jumps off the stretcher to run back on to the pitch. Before Mary McInerney drags him off again and pushes him back down on the stretcher to treat him properly. Or Jim Carney's interview on the sideline with Tony Keady at the end of the game. Carney was definitely on cocaine, answering his questions himself before Tony could. Or Tom Cashman's speech, 'We'd like to thank the County Board for everything they did to us this year. I mean, for us.' I dread to think what was behind that Freudian slip.
I was there that day with the old man and flask and sandwiches .. 9 years old I was and all I can say is I couldn’t see a feckin thing and it smelled like farts and milkymoos..
least sporting speech ever given by a winning captain. A disgrace. Glad the shame is in colour. Ah suppose...you wouldn't expect anything else from there.....

One of our sweetest ever all Ireland victories. One last word to the lord mayor of Galway have a look at that.😀
Honourable men, classy game, brilliant viewing 😅

The worst winning speech ever made. Classless, insulting, provocative. That's cork for you.
It was one cork man, not cork
